Supplementary notes

* Preliminary figures.
** Spending intentions.
Figures include capital construction, machinery, and equipment. As of 2014, capital expenditures on non-residential construction and on machinery and equipment exclude expenditures related to intellectual property, including mineral exploration activities. Historical values have been revised to reflect these methodological changes. Totals may not add due to rounding.
