Prefatory Note The attached document represents the most complete and accurate version available based on original copies culled from the files of the FOMC Secretariat at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. This electronic document was created through a comprehensive digitization process which included identifying the bestpreserved paper copies, scanning those copies, 1 and then making the scanned versions text-searchable. 2 Though a stringent quality assurance process was employed, some imperfections may remain. Please note that this document may contain occasional gaps in the text. These gaps are the result of a redaction process that removed information obtained on a confidential basis. All redacted passages are exempt from disclosure under applicable provisions of the Freedom of Information Act. 1 In some cases, original copies needed to be photocopied before being scanned into electronic format. All scanned images were deskewed (to remove the effects of printer- and scanner-introduced tilting) and lightly cleaned (to remove dark spots caused by staple holes, hole punches, and other blemishes caused after initial printing). 2 A two-step process was used. An advanced optimal character recognition computer program (OCR) first created electronic text from the document image. Where the OCR results were inconclusive, staff checked and corrected the text as necessary. Please note that the numbers and text in charts and tables were not reliably recognized by the OCR process and were not checked or corrected by staff. CONFIDENTIAL (FR) CLASS III - FOMC September 19, 1986 SUPPLEMENT CURRENT ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL CONDITIONS Prepared for the Federal Open Market Committee By the Staff Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System SUPPLEMENTAL NOTES THE DOMESTIC NONFINANCIAL ECONOMY Personal income Total personal income rose at a $12-3/4 billion annual rate in August, a bit faster than the average advance during the first seven months of the year. According to the Commerce Department, recent estimates of personal income have been influenced by three special factors: a large increase in retroactive social security benefit payments in July, changes in subsidy payments to farmers in July and August, and smaller wage and salary disbursements in June owing to the strike at AT&T. Excluding these special factors, personal income increased $16 billion in August and $6.9 billion in July. During August, wages and salaries rose at a $12-1/4 billion annual rate, fueled by the gains in employment, hours, and wages reported in the establishment survey earlier this month. Elsewhere, farm income rose $2.7 billion owing to some additional "advance deficiency payments" made to farmers, while transfer payments declined $4.4 billion reflecting the absence of the retroactive social security payments made in July. Personal consumption spending surged $31.3 billion in August, a 13.6 percent annual rate of increase. The advance largely reflected strong outlays for durable goods associated with the elevated pace of new car sales last month, while spending on both nondurables and services was rather sluggish. The increase in consumption outstripped the rise in income, and the personal saving rate dropped nearly 1 percentage point to 3.1 percent. PERSONAL INCOME AND EXPENDITURES (Based on seasonally adjusted data) 1986 1984 1985 Q1 Q2 June 1986 July Aug.
