Summary
Description
BEA's fixed assets accounts includes a wide array of statistics on both fixed assets, which are used continuously in processes of production for an extended period of time, and consumer durables, which are generally defined as tangible products that can be stored or inventoried and that have an average life of at least three years. Statistics on net stocks, depreciation (consumption of fixed capital), other changes in volume of assets, and the average age of net stocks are available, beginning with 1925; estimates of fixed investment are available, beginning with 1901. These statistics are available by industry, by legal form of organization, and by asset type.
