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.
Percent of ownership at close
of fiscal year

• 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.

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. A list of the
ISI codes is provided on pages 15 and 16.
• For a full explanation of each code, see the Guide to Industry Classifications for International Surveys, 2017 at www.bea.gov/naics2017.
• 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.
• Dealers in financial instruments and finance, insurance, and real estate companies see Special Instructions on page 14.

Report the number of employees on the payroll at the end of FY 2020 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 2020. If the number of employees at the
end of FY 2020 (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 2020. 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.

FORM BE-11B (REV. 12/2020)

Part V — U.S. Exports To and U.S. Imports From Majority-Owned Foreign Affiliate
IMPORTANT NOTES
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).

Report U.S. exports of goods to and U.S. imports of goods from the
foreign affiliate in FY 2020. 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. EXCLUDE 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
EXCLUDE 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.

See Instruction Booklet, Part V.
