Supply-use tables for the United States

As part of its ongoing efforts to enhance the relevance of the industry economic accounts (IEA), the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) plans to begin releasing supply-use tables annually. These tables will be included as part of the annual revision of the IEAs, which typically is released every November. These supply-use tables will provide an integrated presentation of the total domestic supply of goods and services from both domestic and foreign producers and the use of this supply across the US economy. These new tables will not replace any current BEA products. Instead, they will be a new, supplemental product that augments current IEA statistics. The remainder of this briefing consists of three sections. The first section describes the supply-use framework. The second section details the methodology used to develop supply-use tables for the US. The third section concludes with next steps to further harmonize the IEAs with international guidelines.
