Footnotes for
Table 5.8.6B. Real Gross Government Fixed Investment by Type, Chained Dollars

These footnotes correspond to those used for the published tables, which show data in billions of dollars and 2-decimal places, and may not completely apply to the tables in millions of dollars and 3-decimal places. The published tables may be found using the link: http://www.bea.gov/bea/dn/nipaweb/index.asp

1. Consists of general government and government enterprise expenditures for fixed assets.
2. Structures and software include compensation of government employees engaged in new own-account investment and related expenditures for goods and services.
3. Consists of Department of Defense new structures, except family housing.
4. Consists of lodging, religious, communication, sewage and waste disposal, water supply structures, and manufacturing.
5. Consists of lodging, communication, and manufacturing.
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, excluding the lines in the addenda.
