FEDERAL RESERVE STATISTICAL RELEASE
G.17 (419) Supplement For release at 9:15 a.m. (EDT)
October 17, 2002
INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION AND CAPACITY UTILIZATION
Industrial production edged down 0.1 percent in September. Despite the declines in
August and September, the index of industrial production was 140.5 percent of the 1992 average,
a level still slightly above the June 2002 reading. Average production rose at an annual rate of
3.6 percent between the second and third quarters. Manufacturing output, which fell for the
second consecutive month, dropped 0.3 percent in September, but the level of output was 2.5
percent above the December 2001 trough. Production at the nation's mines fell 1.1 percent in
September, while the output of utilities rose 2.4 percent. Capacity utilization for total industry
was 75.9 percent, a rate that is about the same as in June 2002. Both the capacity utilization rate
and the change in overall industrial production were held down 0.1 percentage point by the
effects of tropical storms on oil and gas extraction and petroleum refining around the Gulf of
Mexico.
Market Groups
-------------
A second month of broad declines in consumer durable goods helped push the output of
consumer goods down 0.1 percent in September. The index for appliances, furniture, and
carpeting fell for a fourth consecutive month to a level near its trough in 2001, and the
production of miscellaneous consumer goods contracted for a second month. The output of
automotive products eased in both August and September, but together with July's sharp
increase, production for the third quarter was up at an annual rate of more than 23 percent. The
production of non-energy nondurables was unchanged in September, with higher output levels of
clothing and chemical products offset by declines elsewhere. A small decline in the output of
paper products ended a four-month series of increases. The index for consumer energy products
increased 1.0 percent in September; in recent months this measure has been influenced by large
weather-driven swings in the output of electricity for residential use.
The production of business equipment dropped 1.7 percent in September. A key
contributor to this decline was a pullback in the production of industrial and other equipment,
especially construction and farm machinery. The index for transit equipment was drawn down
again last month and has now contracted for five quarters. In September, reduced motor vehicle
assemblies for businesses led the decline and were accompanied by the eighteenth consecutive
monthly contraction in commercial aircraft production. The output of information processing
equipment remained weak in September and was little changed from twelve months ago. The
output of defense and space equipment, which has increased more than 7 percent since
September 2001, continued its upward climb.
Although the output of construction supplies rose slightly in September, its average in the
third quarter was little changed from the second quarter. The production of business supplies
also rose slightly in September; most of the increase was attributable to commercial electricity
sales. Materials output, which has risen 4.0 percent since September 2001, edged up for a ninth
month. Greater output of energy and nondurable materials slightly more than offset a decline in
the output of durable materials.
Industry Groups
---------------
Manufacturing output declined 0.3 percent in September; the production of durable goods
was down, and the production of nondurable goods was unchanged. In the third quarter,
manufacturing output rose at an annual rate of 3.3 percent after similarly sized increases in the
first and second quarters. The production of durable and nondurable goods also increased in
each of the last three quarters. Among durable goods, only the output of furniture and fixtures
and aerospace and miscellaneous transportation equipment declined last quarter; both of these
industries have been on downward trends for at least six quarters. In contrast, the production of
motor vehicles and parts, primary and fabricated metals, and electrical machinery posted sizable
gains. Among nondurable goods industries, the output of chemicals and products increased
sharply in the third quarter. Production gains in the paper and products, printing and publishing,
and rubber and plastics products industries more than offset output decreases in the food and
tobacco products, apparel products, and petroleum products industries.
At 74.2 percent in September, the factory operating rate was 6.7 percentage points below
its 1967-2001 average. This rate increased 1.7 percentage points between its December 2001
trough and July 2002, but it has fallen in each of the past two months. The utilization rate for
primary-processing industries rose marginally in September to its highest level since February
2001, while the rate for advanced-processing industries posted a small decline. The operating
rate at mines edged down to 84.4 percent, while the rate at utilities climbed to 88.2 percent.
Revision of Industrial Production and Capacity Utilization
On November 26, the Federal Reserve Board will publish a revision to the index of
industrial production (IP), the related measures of capacity and capacity utilization, and the data
on industrial use of electric power. The revised estimates will be classified according to the
2002 North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS); previously, the estimates from
1987 forward were classified according to the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification system
(SIC). NAICS changes the SIC system's industry composition of manufacturing. To preserve
the continuity of the production, capacity, and utilization rate measures featured in the Federal
Reserve's G.17 statistical release, portions of SIC 27 (printing and publishing) and SIC 24
(lumber and products) that are not classified in manufacturing under NAICS will continue to be
included in the overall IP index and capacity utilization.
The revised production indexes will be based on annual output measures that are
constructed by reclassifying the establishments in historical Censuses of Manufactures and
Mineral Industries under NAICS; annual output indexes constructed this way will maximize the
reliability and historical consistency of the IP industry detail. Data going back to at least 1972
will be restated using NAICS. The monthly indicators used in current IP will be incorporated
into the revised IP indexes as far back as the data will allow.
The updated measures will reflect the incorporation of newly available, more
comprehensive source data typical of annual revisions. The updating of source data for IP in the
2002 annual revision will include annual data from the 2000 Annual Survey of Manufactures of
the Bureau of the Census and from selected editions of its 2000 and 2001 Current Industrial
Reports. Annual data from the U.S. Geological Survey regarding metallic and nonmetallic
minerals (except fuels) for 2000 and 2001 will also be introduced. The updating will include
revisions to the monthly indicator for each industry (either physical product data,
production-worker hours, or electric power usage) and revisions to seasonal factors.
Capacity and capacity utilization will be revised to incorporate preliminary data from the
2001 Survey of Plant Capacity of the Bureau of the Census, which covers manufacturing, along
with other new data on capacity from the U.S. Geological Survey, the Department of Energy,
and other organizations. The statistics on the industrial use of electric power will incorporate
additional information received from utilities for the past few years and will include some data
from the 2000 Annual Survey of Manufactures.
Once the revision is published, it will be made available on the Board's web site,
www.federalreserve.gov/releases/G17. The revised data will also be available through the web
site of the Department of Commerce. Further information on these revisions is available from
the Board's Industrial Output Section (telephone 202-452-3197).

www.federalreserve.gov, the Board's World Wide Web site. For paid access to these
files through the Department of Commerce's Economic Bulletin Board or World
Wide Web site, please call STAT-USA at 1-800-STAT-USA or (202) 452-1986.
Diskettes containing historical data and the data published in this release are
available from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Publications
Services, (202) 452-3245.
Industrial Production
Coverage. The industrial production (IP) index measures output in the
manufacturing, mining, and electric and gas utilities industries; the reference period
for the index is 1992. For the period since 1997, the total IP index has been
constructed from 276 individual series based on the 1987 Standard Industrial
Classification (SIC). These individual series are classified in two ways: (1) market
groups (shown in table 1), such as consumer goods, equipment, intermediate
products, and materials; and (2) industry groups (shown in tables 2 and 6), such as
two-digit SIC industries and major aggregates of these industries-for example,
durable and nondurable manufacturing, mining, and utilities.
Market groups. For purposes of analysis, the individual IP series are grouped into
final products, intermediate products, and materials. Final products are assumed to be
purchased by consumers, businesses, or government for final use. Intermediate
products are expected to become inputs in nonindustrial sectors, such as
construction, agriculture, and services. Materials are industrial output requiring
further processing within the industrial sector. Total products comprise final and
intermediate products; final products are divided into consumer goods and
equipment.
Timing. The first estimate of output for a month is published around the 15th of the
following month. The estimate is preliminary (denoted by the superscript "p" in
tables) and subject to revision in each of the subsequent three months as new source
data become available. (Revised estimates are denoted by the superscript "r" in
tables.) After the fourth month, indexes are not revised further until the time of an
annual revision or a benchmark revision. The last three benchmark revisions were
published in 1990, 1985, and 1976.
Source data. In annual or benchmark revisions, the individual IP indexes are
constructed from a variety of source data, such as the quinquennial Censuses of
Manufactures and Mineral Industries and the Annual Survey of Manufactures,
prepared by the Bureau of the Census; the Minerals Yearbook, prepared by the U.S.
Geological Survey; and publications of the Department of Energy. On a monthly
basis, the individual indexes of industrial production are constructed from two main
types of source data: (1) output measured in physical units and (2) data on inputs to
the production process, from which output is inferred. Data on physical products,
such as tons of steel or barrels of oil, are obtained from private trade associations as
well as from government agencies including those listed above; data of this type are
used to estimate monthly IP where possible and appropriate. When suitable data on
physical product are unavailable, estimates of output are based on either
production-worker hours or electric power use by industry. Data on hours worked by
production workers are collected in the monthly establishment survey conducted by
the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The data on electric power use are described below.
The factors used to convert inputs into estimates of production are based on historical
relationships between the inputs and the comprehensive data used to benchmark the
IP indexes; these factors also may be influenced by technological or cyclical
developments. Especially for the first and second estimates for a given month, the
available source data are limited and subject to revision.
Weights. In the index, series that measure the output of an individual industry are
weighted according to their proportion in the total value-added output of all
industries. The industrial production index, which extends back to 1919, is built as a
chain-type index since 1977. The components of IP are combined using annual
estimates of value added per unit of output; for the data since 1992, the annual
unit-value-added estimates are linearly interpolated to get monthly weights. The IP
proportions shown in column 1 of tables 1A, 2A, and 6 are estimates of the industries'
relative contributions to overall growth in the following year. For example, a 1
percent increase in durable goods manufacturing in 1997 would account for an
increase in total IP of nearly 1/2 percent.
Seasonal adjustment. Individual series are seasonally adjusted by the X-11 ARIMA
method, developed at Statistics Canada. For series based on production-worker
hours, the current seasonal factors were estimated with data through October 2000;
for other series, the factors were estimated with data through at least June 2000.
Series are preadjusted for the effects of holidays or the business cycle where
appropriate. For the data since 1977, all seasonally adjusted aggregate indexes are
calculated by aggregating the seasonally adjusted indexes of the individual series.
Reliability. The average revision to the level of the total IP index, without regard to
sign, between the first and the fourth estimates was 0.28 percent during the
1987-2001 period. The average revision to the percent change in total IP, without
regard to sign, from the first to the fourth estimates was 0.22 percentage point during
the 1987-2001 period. In most cases (about 84 percent), the direction of change in
output indicated by the first estimate for a given month is the same as that shown by
the fourth estimate.
Rounding. The published percent changes are calculated from unrounded indexes,
and may not be the same as percent changes calculated from the rounded indexes
shown in the release.
Capacity Utilization
Definition. Capacity utilization is calculated for the manufacturing, mining, and
electric and gas utilities industries. For a given industry, the utilization rate is equal to
an output index divided by a capacity index. Output is measured by seasonally
adjusted indexes of industrial production. The capacity indexes attempt to capture
the concept of sustainable practical capacity, which is defined as the greatest level of
output that a plant can maintain within the framework of a realistic work schedule,
taking account of normal downtime, and assuming sufficient availability of inputs to
operate the machinery and equipment in place. The 76 individual capacity indexes
are based on a variety of data, including capacity data measured in physical units
compiled by trade associations, surveys of utilization rates and investment, and
estimates of growth of the capital input.
Groups. Estimates of capacity and utilization are available for a variety of groups,
including primary and advanced processing industries within manufacturing,
durable and nondurable manufacturing, total manufacturing, mining, utilities, and
total industry. Component industries of the primary and advanced processing groups
within manufacturing are listed in the note on tables 2 and 3 of the release.
Weights. Although each utilization rate is the result of dividing an IP series by a
corresponding capacity index, aggregate utilization rates are equivalent to
combinations of individual utilization rates aggregated with proportions that reflect
current capacity levels of output valued in current-period value added per unit of
actual output. The implied proportions of individual industry operating rates in the
rate for total industry for the most recent year are shown in the first column of table 3.
Perspective. The historical highs and lows in capacity utilization shown in the tables
above are specific to each series and did not all occur in the same month. Industrial
plants usually operate at capacity utilization rates that are well below 100 percent:
none of the broad aggregates has ever reached 100 percent. For total industry and
total manufacturing, utilization rates have exceeded 90 percent only in wartime.
Electric Power
Data on electric power (expressed in kilowatt hours) are collected by the Federal
Reserve District Banks from electric utilities and also from manufacturing and
mining establishments that generate electric power for their own use (cogenerators).
The indexes of power use shown in table 9 are sums of kilowatt hours used by an
industry or industry group expressed as a percentage of that industry's or group's
usage in 1992. The first column of the table shows, for reference, electric power use
in billions of kilowatt hours as reported by manufacturing and mining industries in
the 1992 censuses of those industries. The supplementary group, "Total, less nuclear
nondefense," is shown separately because the value-added proportion for the
nondefense nuclear material series (part of SIC 2819) in total IP is considerably
smaller than its share of total electric power use. Excluding this component from total
power use facilitates comparisons with total IP.
