Special atten tion will be given to the output of Items, such as machinery and new factory buildings, which will even tually add to the sum total of our national wealth, and which may be classified as capital formation. In its new studies, the division will lummarize the output of hundreds of commodities, and these, in turn, will be classified into 70 or 80 com modity groups. To give a more com plete picture of the composition of our national income, the division will also estimate consumers’ expendi tures on services as well as com codities. In addition to providing back ground data for national defense, the new studies will have the fol lowing principal uses: First, supple ment the present national income estimates by showing what goods and services make up the national Income; second, provide businessmen with detailed information as to total consumer expenditures for specified groups of products, and third, cor relate prices with dollar values so aa to provide an estimate of the physical volumes of commodities.
