U.S. travel and tourism satellite accounts for 1998-2003

Peter D. Kuhbach

ON September 8, 2004, the revised estimates of the U.S. travel and tourism satellite accounts were released. (1) This release marks a significant improvement to the industry accounts of the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). The newly released annual estimates from the travel and tourism satellite accounts (TTSAs) for 1998-2002 are consistent with the results of the 2003 comprehensive revision of the national income and product accounts (NIPAs), and they are consistent with the recently integrated annual industry accounts. (2) In addition, the annual estimates of tourism demand, tourism output, and tourism employment for 2003 are based on an improved methodology that was developed for preparing the quarterly TTSA estimates. (See the box "Annual and Quarterly Estimates of Travel and Tourism.")

The TTSAs now include purchases by tourists not previously included, and they reflect updated information for other components. As a result, the estimate for 2002 has been increased by $120 billion, or close to one-third of tourism output. The inclusion for the first time of more types of purchases is the major cause of the revision.

The TTSAs present a rearrangement of information from the NIPAs, from the industry accounts, and from other sources so that travel and tourism activities can be analyzed more completely than is possible in the structure of the traditional national economic accounts. (3) In the TTSAs, the flows of commodities that are related to travel and tourism activities link tourism expenditures to the industries that produce tourism goods and services in the United States. The TTSAs are particularly useful because tourism is not generally treated as a separate industry, so data for tourism are scattered among other industries--such as transportation services, accommodations, and food and beverage services; as a result, comprehensive data on tourism do not exist in most nations' economic statistics. The TTSAs define tourism and measure travel expenditures within a production account framework that links these expenditures to producing industries; the TTSAs also measure the employment that is used to produce the tourism goods and services and the related income that is generated by these industries.

A major advance in the quality and in the consistency of the updated TTSAs is their relationship with the newly released annual input-output (I-O) accounts that were prepared as part of the 2004 comprehensive revision of the annual industry accounts. In June, BEA concurrently published, for the first time, the annual I-O accounts with the gross-domestic-product-by-industry accounts. The concurrent publication was made possible by the use of an integration methodology that incorporates the relative strengths from each set of annual accounts. (4) As a result of the improvements, the TTSAs can now be produced regularly on a schedule that follows the revision cycle of the annual industry accounts, so a full set of annual TTSAs can now be prepared less than 2 years after the end of the reference year. An additional benefit gained from the regular schedule of revisions is the enhanced accuracy and consistency of the quarterly estimates of tourism activities, which will now be derived from the most recently revised TTSAs. (5)

According to the revised TTSAs, the estimates of tourism output for 2002 were revised up $120 billion; of this total, $85 billion reflects the expanded coverage of tourism purchases, such as automotive repair services purchased by travelers that were not previously included in the TTSAs; $22 billion reflects new and updated measures of tourism's share of total output, primarily based on data from the Consumer Expenditure Survey of the Bureau of Labor Statistics; and $13 billion reflects the incorporation of revised estimates of output by industry from the annual I-O accounts.

In addition, the revised TTSAs feature a key indicator of tourism activity--total tourism-related output of goods and services. (6) This indicator focuses on the output of tourism-related goods and services produced by all industries rather than the output of tourism industries only. (The TTSAs will continue to include tourism industry output.) In the revised TTSAs, the treatment of commissions earned by travel agents has also changed; they are now included in travel arrangement and reservation services rather than in the commodities on which the commissions were earned.

According to the updated TTSA annual estimates, the trends for recent years that were shown by the quarterly estimates are confirmed. (7) The trends in tourism activity show three distinct periods of change. First, during the economic expansion of the late 1990s, travel and tourism demand and output grew strongly. Second, in 2001, this strong growth in travel and tourism demand and output dropped as the U.S. economy slowed overall and as a result of the events of September 11th. Third, in 2002 and 2003, they grew slowly as the economy began its recovery.

These revised annual TTSA estimates also show that travel and tourism still accounts for a significant proportion of U.S. economic activity (table A). In 2002, travel and tourism value added--that is, compensation of employees, "taxes on production and imports, less subsidies," and gross operating surplus--accounted for 2.5 percent, or $263.1 billion, of gross domestic product (GDP). In 2002 and 2003, employment in tourism-related activities accounted for 4.2 percent of total U.S. employment. Other highlights from the annual TTSA estimates include the following:

* Total tourism output in 2003 surpassed its pre-2001 peak. In 1998-2000, it rose at an average annual rate of 5.9 percent, peaking at $907.5 billion in 2000. After decreasing in 2001, it has slowly recovered to its current level of $914.8 billion in 2003.

* Strong average annual growth (6.3 percent) in domestic tourism demand in 1998-2000 was followed by a sharp decrease (5.2 percent) in 2001, by a slow recovery (0.9 percent) in 2002, and by strong growth (4.7 percent) in 2003. The post-2000 pattern of growth is reflected in the slow rise in domestic tourism demand in 2000-2003, from $548.9 billion in 2000 to $550.0 billion in 2003.

* Business travel's share of total internal tourism demand has declined from 35.3 percent, or $158.1 billion, in 2000 to 32.6 percent, or $144.6 billion, in 2002. In contrast, leisure travel's share has increased from 60.1 percent, or $269.5 billion, in 2000 to 62.4 percent, or $277.2 billion, in 2002. Government travel's share also increased, from 4.7 percent, or $20.9 billion, in 2000 to 5.1 percent, or $22.5 billion, in 2002.

* Inbound tourism has decreased almost twice as fast as outbound tourism since 2000. As a result, the U.S. trade surplus for tourism declined from $14.6 billion in 2000 to $5.7 billion in 2002.

* Traveler accommodations and air transportation services decreased from a peak of 43.2 percent, or $115.6 billion, of tourism value added in 2000 to 39.9 percent, or $105.0 billion in 2002.

* In 2003, employment in tourism-related industries had not yet recovered to its pre-2001 level. In 2000-2003, tourism industries lost 267,400 jobs, declining from a peak of 5.7 million employees, or 4.4 percent of total national employment, in 2000 to 5.4 million employees, or 4.2 percent, in 2003.

In this article, the trends in tourism activities in 1998-2003 are examined, and the changes in methodology and in the presentation of the accounts are described. The detailed estimates for 2002 are presented in tables 1-5 at the end of this article. Detailed estimates for 1998-2003 are available from BEA's Web site; see the box "Data Availability."

Tourism Trends in 1998-2003

The trends in tourism can be analyzed in terms of the demand for tourism-related commodities (goods and services), in terms of tourism-related value added, employment, and employee compensation in the industries that produce the tourism commodities, and in terms of the supply of tourism goods and services from both domestic and foreign sources. The analysis is based on the annual TTSA estimates for 1998-2003.

Tourism demand

The trends in tourism demand provide information on the composition of tourism goods and services and on the expenditures by type of visitor (see the box "Key Terms").

Domestic tourism demand. Domestic tourism demand shows three distinct periods of change in tourism activity in recent years: The expansion period in 1998-2000, the economic slowdown in 2001, and the recovery in 2002-2003. In 1998-2000, domestic tourism demand grew at an average annual rate of 6.3 percent, peaking at $548.9 billion in 2000. This growth reflected strong demand for air transportation services--which increased 8.1 percent and accounted for 22.2 percent, or $121.6 billion, of domestic tourism demand in 2000--and strong demand for traveler accommodations, which increased 7.9 percent and accounted for 16.1 percent, or $88.1 billion, of domestic tourism demand in 2000 (chart 1). In 2001, domestic tourism demand decreased 5.2 percent, mainly reflecting a 12.4-percent drop in demand for air transportation services and a 7.3-percent decrease in demand for traveler accommodations.

In 2002, total domestic tourism demand recovered slowly, increasing 0.9 percent despite a 7.3-percent decrease in air transportation services, and traveler accommodations grew slowly, increasing 0.7 percent. In 2003, domestic tourism demand grew 4.7 percent, reaching a new peak of $550.0 billion; this strong growth was led by an increase in air transportation services, which grew 7.7 percent to $106.4 billion. Traveler accommodations continued its slow recovery, increasing 0.6 percent to $82.7 billion in 2003.

Internal and inbound tourism demand. Internal tourism demand and inbound tourism demand provide information on the composition of domestic tourism demand. In 1998-2002, internal tourism demand's share of total domestic tourism demand increased from 81.6 percent to 84.6 percent, and inbound tourism's share decreased from 18.4 percent to 15.4 percent (table B).

In 1998-2000, when growth in domestic tourism demand was strong, internal tourism demand grew at an average annual rate of 6.4 percent (table C); in 2000, it accounted for 81.7 percent, or $448.5 billion, of domestic tourism demand; inbound tourism demand grew at an average annual rate of 6.0 percent, and it accounted for 18.3 percent, or $100.4 billion in 2000. In 2001, internal tourism demand decreased 3.5 percent, and inbound tourism demand decreased 12.7 percent. In 2002, internal tourism demand increased 2.7 percent, to $444.2 billion, and inbound tourism demand continued to fall, decreasing 7.7 percent to $80.9 billion.

Domestic tourism demand by type of visitor. Domestic tourism demand by type of visitor provides information on expenditures for travel by leisure visitors from the household sector and for work-related travel by visitors from both the business and government sectors. In 1998-2002, the share of tourism demand by leisure visitors increased from 50.6 percent to 52.8 percent (table C). The share of tourism demand by business visitors increased from 27.0 percent to 27.5 percent, and the share of tourism demand by government visitors increased from 4.1 percent to 4.3 percent.

In 1998-2000, the tourism demand by business visitors increased at an average annual rate of 9.9 percent, peaking at $158.1 billion in 2000, and the demand by leisure visitors increased 4.8 percent, to $269.5 billion (table B). In 2001, the demand by business visitors decreased 9.1 percent, and the demand by leisure visitors decreased 0.8 percent. In 2002, the demand by business visitors increased slightly at 0.6 percent, to $144.6 billion, and the demand by leisure visitors increased 3.6 percent, to a peak of $277.2 billion.

Inbound and outbound tourism demand. Inbound tourism demand and outbound tourism demand provide information on the tourism-related expenditures for cross-border flows that enter into the U.S. international transactions accounts.

Inbound tourism demand's share of total international tourism demand declined 3.0 percentage points from 54.8 percent in 1998 to 51.8 percent in 2002 (chart 2). In 1998-2000, the U.S. trade surplus for tourism decreased from $15.6 billion to $14.6 billion, as inbound tourism increased at an average annual rate of 6.0 percent and as outbound tourism increased at an average annual rate of 7.9 percent. (8) In 2001, the U.S. trade surplus for tourism decreased further, to $7.7 billion, as inbound tourism decreased 12.7 percent, almost twice the rate of outbound tourism. In 2002, the U.S. trade surplus for tourism decreased again, to $5.7 billion, as inbound tourism decreased 7.7 percent and as outbound tourism decreased 5.9 percent.

Tourism value added, employment, and compensation

The trends in tourism value added, employment, and compensation provide information on the growth in tourism-related industries.

Tourism value added. Tourism value added indicates the contributions of the tourism-related industries to the Nation's GDP. The share of GDP that was accounted for by tourism value added declined from 2.8 percent, or $243.2 billion, in 1998 to 2.5 percent, or $263.1 billion, in 2002 (table A); this change reflects the impact of the economic slowdown in 2001. In 1998-2000, tourism value added grew at an average annual rate of 4.8 percent, and GDP grew at an average annual rate of 5.9 percent; in 2001, tourism value added decreased 3.5 percent, and GDP growth slowed to 2.9 percent; in 2002, tourism value added recovered, increasing a modest 1.9 percent, and GDP increased 3.8 percent (table D).

In 1998-2000, traveler accommodations and air transportation services grew strongly: Traveler accommodations increased at an average annual rate of 7.2 percent, accounting for 25.0 percent, or $66.8 billion, of tourism value added in 2000; air transportation services increased at an average annual rate of 5.7 percent, accounting for 18.3 percent, or $48.8 billion, in 2000. In 2001, both industries were particularly hard hit: Traveler accommodations decreased 4.1 percent, and air transportation services decreased 12.6 percent. In 2002, these industries had not yet recovered to their 2000 peaks in value added: Traveler accommodations increased 0.9 percent and accounted for 24.6 percent, or $64.7 billion, of tourism value added; air transportation services decreased 5.6 percent and accounted for 15.3 percent, or $40.3 billion, of tourism value added.

Tourism employment. In 2003, employment in tourism-related industries had not yet recovered from the economic slowdown of 2001 and from the impact of September 11th.

In 2000-2003, 267,400 jobs in tourism-related industries were lost. Employment in these industries defined from a peak of 5.7 million, or 4.4 percent of total national employment in 2000, to 5.4 million, or 4.2 percent of total national employment in 2003 (table A). (9)

In 1998-2000, employment in tourism-related industries increased at an average annual rate of 1.2 percent, and total national employment increased at an average annual rate of 1.9 percent. Traveler accommodations increased at an average annual rate of 3.3 percent, accounting for 24.7 percent of total tourism employment or 1.4 million employees in 2000; air transportation services increased 5.6 percent, accounting for 10.6 percent of total tourism employment or 599,600 employees in 2000 (table E). In 2001, tourism employment decreased 2.5 percent, and total national employment decreased 0.1 percent; traveler accommodations decreased 2.6 percent, and air transportation services decreased 0.7 percent. In 2002, tourism employment decreased 2.0 percent, and total employment decreased 1.1 percent; traveler accommodations fell 3.8 percent, and air transportation services fell 8.6 percent. In 2003, tourism employment decreased 0.3 percent, and total employment decreased 0.3 percent; traveler accommodations increased 0.3 percent, to 1.3 million employees, or 24.3 percent of total tourism employment. Air transportation services continued to fall, decreasing 5.2 percent to 515,700 employees, or 9.6 percent of total tourism employment.

Compensation of employees. In 1998-2002, the average compensation of employees in the tourism-related industries increased at an average annual rate of 4.0 percent, from $26,299 in 1998 to $30,707 in 2002 (tables F and G); in 2002, the average compensation of all employees in the United States was $46,952. Despite the increase in tourism's level of compensation from $145.1 billion in 1998 to $165.9 billion in 2002, its share of total compensation of all employees decreased from 2.9 percent in 1998 to 2.8 percent in 2002 (table G).

The employees' share of income, which is calculated as the ratio of compensation to value added, tends to be larger in tourism industries than in other industries. In 1998, the employees' share was 59.7 percent in the tourism industries; the ratio of total national compensation to GDP was 57.5 percent. In 2000, the difference between these two shares increased: The tourism share was 61.4 percent, and the national share was 59.0 percent. In 2001 and 2002, the differences increased significantly: In 2001, the tourism share was 64.0 percent, and the national share was 58.9 percent; in 2002, the tourism share was 63.0 percent, and the national share was 57.5 percent. The increasing difference between the tourism shares and the national shares suggests that tourism-related industries have become relatively more labor intensive than other industries.

Total tourism-related output. Total tourism-related output (direct and indirect) surpassed its 2000 peak, increasing from $907.5 billion in 2000 to $914.8 billion in 2003 (table H). Direct tourism output, the U.S. goods and services sold to visitors, increased $23.0 billion to a peak of $518.4 billion in 2003 (chart 3 and table I). The $23.0 billion increase reflected a $6.4 billion increase in air transportation services, a $6.0 billion increase in food and beverage services, and a $3.6 billion increase in recreation and entertainment.

[GRAPHIC OMITTED]

The TTSAs are tied to the I-O accounts, so the ripple effects of these tourism expenditures on other commodities can also be estimated. These expenditure effects, or indirect output, include all the output used as inputs in the process of producing tourism output--for example, toiletries for hotel guests, the ingredients used to prepare meals served at restaurants, and the cloth used to make T-shirts.

The effects of these expenditures differ for each tourism commodity. For example, in 2002, every dollar spent on traveler accommodations generated an additional $0.53 of commodity output, and every dollar spent on food services and drinking places generated an additional $0.91 of commodity output. On average, every dollar of direct tourism expenditure generated an additional $0.76 of commodity output (table J). (10)

Changes in the Methodology and Presentation

The TTSAs for 1998-2003 incorporate a number of significant changes that were designed to improve the quality, the consistency, and the usefulness of the accounts. An overview of the TTSAs and methodology is first presented, and the following changes are described: The effects of incorporating the results of the integrated annual industry accounts into the TTSAs, the changes to the definition of tourism demand, the incorporation of private sector data, the use of the 1997 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), and the changes in the presentation.

Overview of the accounts and methodology

The TTSAs are presented as a set of five tables. The production account table shows the production of tourism commodities by domestic industries, the supply and consumption table shows the supply and consumption of tourism commodities, the tourism demand table shows the tourism-related demand for tourism commodities, the tourism output and value added table shows the tourism-related output and value added of domestic industries, and the tourism employment table shows the tourism employment and employee compensation by industry. (This article presents the complete set of tables for 2002. See the box "Data Availability.")

The production account table and the supply and consumption table present a rearrangement of information from the make and use tables in the annual industry accounts. In each table, the travel and tourism-related industries and commodities are emphasized rather than summed into aggregates as in the annual I-O accounts.

The production account table shows the tourism commodities (rows) produced by each tourism industry (columns) from the annual industry accounts. (11) The table also shows the components of value added for each industry: Compensation of employees, "taxes on production and imports, less subsidies," and gross operating surplus. Table K shows the TTSA commodity definitions.

The supply and consumption table shows the supply of tourism commodities and all other commodities and the intermediate and final demand for these commodities. Supply is the total amount of each commodity that is available to be purchased by business, by government, by resident households, and that is available to be exported. It is the sum of domestic production, imports, wholesale and retail trade margins, and transportation costs, less change in private inventories. This table shows consumption in purchasers' prices; in the I-O use table, consumption is shown in producers' prices.

The tourism demand table rearranges the information from the supply and consumption table and separates tourism demand from nontourism demand. Tourism demand consists of internal tourism demand (demand by business, by government, and by resident households) and inbound tourism demand (demand by nonresidents traveling in the United States).

For most tourism commodities, tourism demand is taken from the I-O accounts. For commodities in which only a share of the total supply is consumed by visitors, the estimates are based on data from the Consumer Expenditure Survey (CEX) of the Bureau of Labor Statistics and on data from D.K. Shifflet & Associates. (12) Table L presents a summary of methods for estimating tourism commodity demand.

In order to prepare estimates of expenditures of resident households and of nonresidents, estimates of the expenditures by nonresidents were subtracted from the estimates of personal consumption expenditures (PCE). Data from the In-Flight Survey of the International Trade Administration were used to disaggregate international tourism expenditures into five categories: Traveler accommodations; food and beverages; transportation in the United States; recreation and entertainment; and shopping. Expenditures for transportation and for recreation and entertainment were disaggregated to TTSA commodities by weights calculated from domestic tourism demand.

The tourism demand table also derives the "tourism-commodity ratio" for each tourism commodity. This ratio is the proportion of the supply of the commodity that is purchased by visitors. For example, 93 percent of the supply of "travel arrangement and reservation services" was consumed by visitors, but only 19 percent of the supply of "food services and drinking places" was purchased by visitors.

Tourism value added is derived from the production account table and the tourism demand table. It shows the relative importance of tourism industries and of other industries that produce tourism output. The tourism commodity ratio is applied to the production of commodities by industries in the production account table in order to estimate the amount of each industry's total output that is consumed as tourism demand. The sum of tourism output by each industry is then divided by total industry output to derive an "industry tourism ratio," or the share of each industry's output that is consumed by tourism. This ratio is applied to industry value added to estimate the value added derived from tourism demand.

The tourism employment table shows the estimates of tourism-related employment and employee compensation. The tourism industry ratio from the output and value added table is applied to employment and compensation by industry to derive estimates of tourism employment and compensation.

Incorporation of the integrated annual industry accounts

The TTSAs are based on the revised annual I-O accounts for 1998-2002. As a result of the incorporation of these accounts into the TTSAs, the estimates of tourism output for 2002 increased $13.0 billion. In June, BEA released the initial results of its integrated annual industry accounts. The integrated annual industry accounts incorporate the relative strengths from both the annual I-O accounts and the GDP-by-industry accounts by incorporating the most timely and best source data, including the gross-domestic-income-based measures of value added from the GDP-by-industry accounts. In consequence, the TTSAs for 1998-2003 have been significantly improved by being tied to the time series of the annual I-O accounts.

In addition, the TTSAs can now be prepared on a more timely and accurate basis because of their link to the annual I-O accounts. A complete set of TTSAs can now be prepared in less than 2 years after the end of the reference year; previously, 3 years were required. The accuracy of the quarterly estimates is improved by moving the base period for the estimates up to the latest complete set of TTSAs. Previously, the quarterly estimates were extrapolated from the annual TTSAs for 1997.

Definition of tourism industries and commodities

Two significant changes in definition were made to the TTSAs. First, the definition of tourism industries was expanded to include all output purchased by visitors. Second, the commissions paid for travel arrangement and reservation services are now recognized as a component of tourism demand.

Tourism industries. In the TTSAs, the tourism industries have been expanded to include the manufacturing output of gasoline and other nondurable goods, wholesale trade and transportation services, automotive repair services, parking lots and garages, and toll highways. In the previously published accounts, tourism industries included only those industries whose output was purchased directly by travelers. For example, tourism industry output included only the retail output of gasoline service stations and the retail output of other nondurable goods (of retailers with direct contact with travelers).

This change affects the production account table, the tourism output and value added table, and the tourism employment table. In the production account table, the production of commodities now includes "wholesale trade and transportation margins on gasoline," "wholesale trade and transportation margins on nondurable PCE commodities other than gasoline," and "retail trade margins on nondurable PCE commodities other than gasoline" and the output of the petroleum refineries industry and of the wholesale trade and transportation services industry. The tourism output and value added table and the tourism employment table now include estimates for petroleum refineries, for industries producing "nondurable PCE commodities, excluding petroleum refineries," and for wholesale trade and transportation services.

As a result of this change, total tourism-related output for 2002 was revised up $85.3 billion, and tourism-related value added was revised up $34.3 billion. In addition, total tourism-related employment increased 364,000, and total tourism-related compensation of employees increased $17.6 billion.

Travel arrangement and reservation services. In the TTSAs for 1998-2003, the commissions that are paid for travel arrangement and reservation services are now recognized as a component of tourism demand. (13) In the previously published estimates, these commissions were included in the tourism commodity on which they were earned; for example, when a travel agent earned a $10 commission on the sale of a $100 airline ticket, the $100 was included in tourism demand for air transportation services. In the updated TTSAs, when a travel agent earns a $10 commission on the sale of a $100 airline ticket, $10 is included in tourism demand for travel arrangement and reservation services, and $90 is included in tourism demand for air transportation services.

In addition, $10 of production is included in the production of the travel arrangement and reservation services industry, and $90 of production is included in the production of the air transportation services industry. By crediting the service to the producing industry, the accounts now provide a more accurate picture of the contribution of this industry to total travel and tourism activity. In 2002, the value of these commissions totaled $18.5 billion; $9.8 billion was paid by airlines, $3.2 billion was paid by hotels and casino hotels, $3.0 billion was paid by automobile rental and leasing companies, and $1.0 billion was paid by cruise lines.

Improved measures of the tourism share of output

In the revised TTSAs, the estimates of the tourism share of output incorporate new survey data from a private sector information vendor in the travel industry in order to augment the estimates from the integrated annual industry accounts. (14) Specifically, these new data were used to prepare improved estimates of shopping (traveler consumption of nondurable goods other than gasoline) and to improve the allocation of estimates for eating and drinking services, entertainment, and auto repair services to business and government travelers. As a result of the incorporation of these new data and the revision of tourism shares, total tourism output for 2002 was revised up $22.0 billion.

NAICS

The industry and commodity definitions that are presented in the TTSAs are now based on the 1997 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) (table M). In NAICS, establishments that have similar production processes are classified in the same industry. In the previously published TTSAs, the industry and commodity definitions were based on the Standard Industrial Classification system; this system primarily uses demand-based criteria to classify establishments by industry--that is, establishments that produce similar products are classified in the same industry.

Changes in the presentation

The TTSAs include three presentational changes. First, the accounts now include only one estimate for each component of tourism demand, tourism output, and tourism employment. In the prototype accounts for 1992 and in the TTSAs for 1996 and 1997, three estimates--high, middle, and low values--were prepared for each component. A range of estimates is no longer prepared because of the improved quality of the source data.

Second, intermediate consumption in the tourism supply and consumption table now includes government expenditures. Third, more information is now available on the supply and the consumption of gambling products, including the output of the Indian gaming industry. The changes to government consumption and gambling products are a result of incorporating the results of the 2003 comprehensive revision of the NIPAs into the integrated annual industry accounts.

Annual and Quarterly Estimates of Travel and Tourism

The revised travel and tourism satellite accounts (TTSAs) present annual estimates of tourism demand, tourism output, and tourism employment for 2003. In addition, BEA prepares quarterly estimates that are released approximately 2 weeks after the preliminary GDP release.

These annual and quarterly estimates are based on limited source data because the annual input-output tables for 2003 are not yet available. These estimates are prepared at a more aggregated level than the full TTSAs. The estimates are only prepared for six goods and services and for six industry groups: Traveler accommodations, air transportation services, all other transportation related services, food services and drinking places, recreation and entertainment and shopping.

The estimates of tourism demand for 2003 and the quarterly estimates for 2003 and 2004 are extrapolated from the estimates of tourism demand for 2002 by the estimates of personal consumption expenditures from the national income and product accounts. The estimates of tourism output for 2003 are then calculated from the extrapolated estimates of tourism demand for 2003; this calculation uses information on tourism's share of total demand, information on the share of domestic supply that excludes imports, and information on each industry's share of commodity production. The estimates of tourism employment are extrapolated from tourism employment for 2002 by the estimates of employment by industry from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Key Terms

The following key terms are used to describe the travel and tourism satellite accounts.

Domestic tourism demand. Travel-related expenditures in the United States. These expenditures consist of expenditures by residents (internal tourism demand) and by nonresidents (inbound tourism demand).

Inbound tourism demand. Travel-related expenditures by nonresidents traveling in the United States and for international air fares purchased from U.S. airlines. These expenditures exclude expenditures for travel to study in the United States and for medical reasons.

Internal tourism demand. Travel-related expenditures by U.S. residents in the United States.

Outbound tourism demand. Travel-related expenditures by U.S. residents traveling abroad and expenditures for international air fares purchased from foreign airlines.

Total tourism-related outputs. Consists of tourism output and the indirect output that is required to support the production of tourism goods and services (for example, purchases by restaurants, the maintenance and repair costs paid by hotels, and the insurance purchased by rental car companies).

Tourism commodities. Commodities that are typically purchased by visitors from the producer, such as airline passenger fares, meals, or hotel services. (1)

Tourism demand. Travel-related expenditures by all visitors before, during, and immediately after each trip. It consists of business travel, travel by government employees, and travel by U.S. residents both in the United States and abroad, and international travel by international visitors in the United States.

Tourism demand by type of visitor. Refers to the three types of visitors that purchase tourism-related commodities and that are identified by their reasons for travel leisure, business, or government. It measures the composition of internal tourism demand (2) Tourism industries. Industries in which tourism commodities are a primary product, so that the industries' revenues and profits would be substantially affected if tourism ceased.

Tourism output. Domestically produced tourism goods and services purchased by travelers. Tourism output, or direct tourism output, is calculated as domestic tourism demand less imports of goods and services purchased by travelers.

Usual environment. The area of normal, everyday activities within 50-100 miles of home. (3)

Visitor. A person who travels outside of his or her usual environment for less than a year or who stays overnight in a hotel or motel. The visitor may travel for pleasure or business. Visitors exclude travelers who expect to be compensated at the location of their visit (such as migrant workers, persons traveling to new assignments, and diplomatic and military personnel traveling from their duty stations to their home countries).

(1.) The classification of tourism commodities in the TTSAs is based on a list of primary activities of visitors that was developed from recommendations by the World Trade Organization and by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, and from various surveys of U.S. visitors.

(2.) In the U.S. TTSAs, inbound visitors are not differentiated by type of visitor, because the data to prepare these estimates are not available.

(3.) The usual environment depends on the availability of source data.

(1.) Direct tourism output plus indirect tourism-related
output. Indirect tourism output comprises all output used
as inputs in the process of producing direct tourism output
(for example, toiletries for hotel guests and the food
required to produce meals).

(2.) Direct tourism output comprises all U.S. output
consumed directly by visitors (for example, traveler
accommodations and passenger air transport). Direct
output is equal to domestic tourism demand less the
estimated import content of tourism purchases.

(3.) Domestic tourism demand is total tourism demand from
table 3 of the TTSAs lass travel by U.S. residents abroad.
