Section A — Direct Ownership in this Foreign Affiliate
• Equity interest is the U.S. Reporter’s direct ownership in the total equity (voting and nonvoting) of the affiliate.
Examples of nonvoting equity include nonvoting stock and a limited partner’s interest in a partnership.
• Voting interest is the U.S. Reporter’s direct ownership in just the voting equity of the affiliate.
Examples of voting equity include voting stock and a general partner’s interest in a partnership. Thus,
a U.S. Reporter could have a 100 percent direct voting interest in an affiliate but own less than 100
percent of the affiliate’s total equity.
• Enter percent of ownership based on total voting stock, as applicable, if an incorporated affiliate, or
an equivalent interest if an unincorporated affiliate.

Industry classification of foreign affiliate (based on sales or gross operating revenues)
• Report in columns (1) and (2) respectively, the 4-digit International Surveys Industry (ISI) code(s) and the sales
associated with each code.
• For a full explanation of each code, see the Guide to Industry Classifications for International Surveys, 2007.
• For an inactive foreign affiliate, enter an ISI code based on its last active period.
• Holding companies (ISI code 5512) must show total income. To be considered a holding company, income from equity
investments must be more than 50 percent of total income. In addition, normally at least 50 percent of total assets must consist of
investments in affiliates. ISI code 5512 (holding company) is an invalid classification if more than 50 percent of income generated,
or expected to be generated, by an affiliate is from non-holding company activities.

Part II — Financial and Operating Data of Majority-Owned Foreign Affiliate
Section A — Number of Employees and Employee Compensation
• Report the number of employees on the payroll at the end of FY 2012 including part-time employees, but excluding temporary
and contract employees not included on your payroll records. A count taken at some other date during the reporting period may be
given provided it is a reasonable estimate of employees on the payroll at the end of FY 2012. If the number of employees at the end of
FY 2012 (or when the count was taken) was unusually high or low due to temporary factors (e.g., a strike), enter the number of
employees that reflects normal operations. If the number of employees fluctuates widely during the year due to seasonal business
variations, report the average number of employees on the payroll during FY 2012. Base such an average on the number of employees
on the payroll at the end of each pay period, month or quarter. If precise figures are not available, give your best estimate.
• Report employee compensation expenditures made by an employer in connection with the employment of workers, including cash
payments, payments in-kind, and employer expenditures for employee benefit plans including those required by statute. Base compensation
data on payroll records. Report compensation which relates to activities that occurred during the reporting period regardless of whether the
activities were charged as an expense on the income statement, charged to inventories, or capitalized. DO NOT include data related to
activities of a prior period, such as those capitalized or charged to inventories in prior periods. DO NOT include compensation of contract
workers not carried on the payroll of this affiliate. Total employee compensation consists of wages and salaries of employees and
employer expenditures for all employee benefit plans.
— Wages and salaries include gross earnings of all employees before deduction of employees’ payroll withholding taxes, social
insurance contributions, group insurance premiums, union dues, etc. Include time and piece-rate payments, cost of living adjustments,
overtime pay and shift differentials, bonuses, profit-sharing amounts, stock-based compensation, and commissions. Exclude
commissions paid to independent personnel who are not employees. Include direct payments by employers for vacations, sick leave,
severance (redundancy) pay, etc. Exclude payments made by, or on behalf of, benefit funds rather than by the employer. Include
employer contributions to benefit funds. Include in-kind payments, valued at their costs, that are clearly and primarily of benefit to the
employees as consumers. Do not include expenditures that benefit employers as well as employees, such as expenditures for plant
facilities, employee training programs, and reimbursement of business expenses.
— Employee benefit plans include employer expenditures for all employee benefit plans including those mandated by government
statute, those resulting from collective bargaining contracts and those that are voluntary. Include Social Security and other retirement
plans, life and disability insurance, guaranteed sick pay programs, workers’ compensation insurance, medical insurance, family
allowances, unemployment insurance, severance pay funds, etc. Also, include deferred post-employment and post-retirement expenses
per FASB ASC 715 (FAS 106). If plans are financed jointly by the employer and the employee, include only the contributions of the
employer.

Part V — U.S. Exports To and U.S. Imports From Majority-Owned Foreign Affiliate
Goods only valued f.a.s. at port of exportation; do not include services —
See Instruction Booklet, Part V.

Affiliate ID

IMPORTANT NOTES
Report U.S. exports of goods to and U.S. imports of goods from the
foreign affiliate in FY 2012. Report all goods that physically left or
entered the U.S. customs area. Report data on a "shipped" basis, i.e.,
on the basis of when and to (or by) whom the goods were shipped.
This is the same basis as official U.S. trade statistics to which these
data will be compared. Do not record a U.S. import or export if the
goods did not physically enter or leave (i.e., were not physically
shipped to or from) the United States, even if they were charged to
the foreign affiliate by, or charged by the foreign affiliate to, a U.S.
person.
Foreign affiliates normally keep their accounting records on a
"charged" basis, i.e., on the basis of when and to (or by) whom the
goods were charged. The "charged" basis may be used if there is no
material difference between it and the "shipped" basis. If there is a
material difference, the "shipped" basis must be used or adjustments
made to the data on a "charged" basis to approximate a "shipped"
basis. The data should include goods only; they should exclude
services.

Packaged general use computer software — Include exports and
imports of packaged general use computer software. Value such exports
and imports at the full transaction value, i.e., the market value of the
media on which the software is recorded and the value of the information
contained on the media. Do not include exports and imports of customized
software designed to meet the needs of a specific user. This type of
software is considered a service and should not be included as trade in
goods. Also do not include negotiated leasing fees for software that is to
be used on networks.

Capital goods — Include capital goods but exclude the value of
ships, planes, railroad rolling stock, and trucks that were temporarily
outside the United States transporting people or goods.

Natural gas, electricity, and water — Report ONLY the product
value of natural gas, electricity, and water that you produce or sell at
wholesale as exports and imports of goods. DO NOT report the service
value (transmission and distribution).

Consigned goods — Include consigned goods in the trade figures
when shipped or received, even though they are not normally
recorded as sales or purchases, or entered into intercompany
accounts when initially consigned.
93

In-transit goods — Exclude from exports and imports the value of
goods that are in-transit. In-transit goods are goods that are not
processed or consumed by residents in the intermediate country(ies)
through which they transit; the in-transit goods enter that country(ies)
only because that country(ies) is along the shipping lines between the
exporting and importing countries. In-transit imports are goods en
route from one foreign country to another via the United States (such
as from Canada to Mexico via the United States), and in-transit
exports are goods en route from one part of the United States to
another part via a foreign country (such as from Alaska to Washington
State via Canada).

2012 ANNUAL SURVEY OF U.S. DIRECT INVESTMENT ABROAD
FORM BE-11B — ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS BY ITEM
Part IV, Section D — Distribution of Sales or Gross Operating Revenues
76 — 79
Disaggregate the total sales or gross operating revenues into sales of
goods, sales of services, and investment income.
77 Sales of goods — Goods are normally economic outputs that are
tangible. Report as sales of goods:
• Mass produced media, including exposed film, video tapes, DVDs,
audio tapes, and CDs.
• Books. NOTE: Book publishers — To the extent feasible, report as
sales of services all revenues associated with the design, editing, and
marketing activities necessary for producing and distributing books
that you both publish and sell. If you cannot unbundle (i.e., separate)
these revenues from the value of the books you sell, then report your
total sales as sales of goods or services based on the activity that
accounts for a majority of the value.
• Energy trading activities where you take title to the goods.
NOTE: If you act in the capacity of a broker or agent to facilitate
the sale of goods and you do not take title to the goods, report your
revenue (i.e., commissions) as sale of services in 78 .
• Magazines and periodicals sold in retail stores. NOTE: Report
subscription sales as sales of services in 78 .
• Packaged general use computer software.
• Structures sold by businesses in real estate.
• Revenues earned from building structures by businesses in
construction.
• Electricity, natural gas, and water. NOTE: Revenues derived from
transmitting and/or distributing these goods, as opposed to revenues
derived from the sale of the actual product, should to the extent
feasible, be reported as sales of services in 78 .
78 Sales of services — Services are normally economic outputs that
are intangible. Report as sales of services:
• Advertising revenue.
• Commissions and fees earned by companies engaged in finance and
real estate activities.

• Mass produced audiovisual media that are delivered electronically,
including film, music, manuscripts, or other digital content.

• Premiums earned by companies engaged in insurance activities.

NOTE: Calculate as direct premiums written (including renewals)
net of cancellations, plus reinsurance premiums assumed, minus
reinsurance premiums ceded, plus unearned premiums at the
beginning of the year, minus unearned premiums at the end of the
year.
• Commissions earned by agents or brokers (i.e., wholesalers) who
act on behalf of buyers and sellers in the wholesale distribution of
goods. NOTE: Agents or brokers do not take title to the goods
being sold.
• Magazines and periodicals sold through subscriptions. NOTE:
Report magazines and periodicals sold through retail stores, as
sales of goods in 77 .
• Newspapers.
• Pipeline transportation.
• Software downloaded from the Internet, electronic mail, an Extranet,
an Electronic Data Interchange network, or some other online
system.
• Computer systems design and related services.
• Negotiated licensing fees for software to be used on networks.
Licensing fees associated with rights to reproduce or distribute
software.
• Electricity transmission and distribution, natural gas distribution,
and water distribution.
Report the source of real estate rental income in columns 2 through 7
based on the location of the property.
79 Investment income — Report dividends and interest generated
by finance and insurance activities as investment income. NOTE:
Report commissions and fees as sales of services in 78 .
Finance or insurance companies that include investment income in
gross operating revenues should report the source of such investment
income in columns 2 through 7 based on the location of the issuer of
the financial instrument whether publicly issued or privately placed. If
the location of the issuer is unknown, then substitute the nationality of
the issuer. If both the location and nationality of the issuer are
unknown, and an intermediary (e.g., trustee, custodian, or nominee) is
used to manage the investment (financial instrument or real estate)
use the country of location of the intermediary.

Special Instructions for Dealers in Financial Instruments, Finance Companies,
Insurance Companies, and Real Estate Companies
A. Certain gains (losses) for (1) dealers in financial
instruments and finance and insurance companies, and
(2) real estate companies.

statement, and
• goodwill impairment as defined by FASB ASC 350 (FAS 142).

the valuation of financial instruments that are taken to other

1. non-trusteed or free account assets, and 2. nonadmitted
assets, including furniture and equipment, agents’ debit balances,
and all receivables deemed to be collectible. Include mandatory
securities valuation reserves that are appropriations of retained
earnings in the owners’ equity section of the balance sheet, not in
the liability section.

taxes ( 42 ) — Include items such as earned premiums,
