Table 2.3.6. Real Personal Consumption Expenditures by Major Type of Product, Chained Dollars


1. Consists of gasoline, fuel oil, and other energy goods and of electricity and gas.
Note. Chained (2000) dollar series are calculated as the product of the chain-type quantity index and the 2000 current-dollar value of the corresponding series, divided by 100. Because the formula for the chain-type quantity indexes uses weights of more than one period, the corresponding chained-dollar estimates are usually not additive. The residual line is the difference between the first line and the sum of the most detailed lines.
