1 United States Country Team Report Third NTA Workshop Honolulu, Hawaii January 20, 2006

2 Team members Pablo Comelatto Avi Ebenstein Ron Lee Tim Miller Eric Shiff Gretchen Stockmayer

3 Accomplishments 1.Complete National Transfer Flow Accounts for 2000. 2.Most Public Transfers, 1850 to 2100. 3.Aggregate Control Totals, 1929-2004. 4.Consumption and Labor Earnings, 1888, 1917, 1935, 1960, 1963-2003.

4 Difficulties encountered 1.Using three micro-data sources rather than a single source. 2.Un-representative samples. (e.g. Industrial workers and their families) 3.Measuring household savings. (Residual of a residual). 4.Smoothing. 5.Adjusting to control totals.

5 Plans for next year (next 3 years?) Deepen accounting: Details on consumption (capital/current), reallocations (capital/credit/land), and transfers (education, health, other). Develop Wealth Accounts. Project accounts: 2007 to 2100? Widen accounting: Education and Gender Extend accounts: Back to 1776?

25 Next Step: Longitudinal Profiles Using the age data from 1988,1917,1935, and 1980-2000 and the aggregate control totals from 1929-2004 and with some heroic assumptions… We can obtain matrices for labor earnings, consumption, and the life cycle deficit by age and year from 1850 thru 2200. From these, we obtain the life cycle trajectories for birth cohorts.

26 Warning These are preliminary results. We cut a few corners in getting the data ready. Best viewed as an example of what we’re going to be doing (more carefully).

27 Ages 25 to 62

28 Age 24 to 59

29 $14 Billion (38%) $6 Billion (16%) $0.5 Billion (1.4%) Labor Earnings were $37 Billion 34% of Population is Age 25 to 62

30 $1.4 Trillion (22%) Labor earnings were $6.6 Trillion $1.0 Trillion (17%) $1.9 Trillion (30%) 50% of Population is Age 24 to 59

41 Difficulties encountered 1.Using three micro-data sources rather than a single source. 2.Un-representative samples. (e.g. Industrial workers and their families) 3.Assigning educational expenditures. 4.Measuring household savings. (Residual of a residual). 5.Measuring the capital stock.

42 Plans for next year (next 3 years?) Deepen accounting: Details on consumption (capital/current), reallocations (capital/credit/land), and transfers (education, health, other). Develop Wealth Accounts. Project accounts: 2007 to 2100? Other dimensions: Education and Gender Extend accounts: Back to 1776?
