摘要: |
U.S. exports and imports of transportation-related goods totaled 290 billion in 2001 as this trade remained an important component of overall U.S. international trade. But the share of transportation-related goods relative to all U.S. traded goods fell slightly from 16.5 percent in 1990 to 15.5 percent 2001. Trade in motor vehicles and parts, by far the largest transportation-related trade category, accounts for three of every four dollars of transportation-related goods trade--a ratio that has held steady for more than a decade. The value of motor vehicles and parts trade was more than 218 billion in 2001--159 billion imported and 59 billion exported. This 100 billion trade deficit was more than double the 1990 deficit of 42 billion for motor vehicles and parts. Aircraft, spacecraft, and parts, the second largest transportation commodity trade group, accounted for 23 percent of U.S. trade in transportation-related goods, valued at nearly $66 billion in 2001. Unlike motor vehicles, a higher proportion of these goods are exported than imported. However, the surplus from this trade has narrowed. Only 68%were exports in 2001, down from 83 percent in 1990. Despite this drop, the sale of aircraft, spacecraft, and parts created the largest overall trade surplus for any commodity in U.S. international trade. / Availability Note: Product reproduced from digital image.
