G.17(419)
INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION AND CAPACITY UTILIZATION

Industrial production rose 0.5 percent in January, following an upwardly revised gain of 0.9 percent in
December. However, severe weather during January, coupled with the earthquake in California, helped constrain the growth
in production at manufacturing establishments to just 0.2 percent, compared with an average monthly advance of 0.9 percent
during the final quarter of 1993. Steel, appliances, and motor vehicles and parts were among the industries with the most
significant disruptions. Conversely, the weather helped boost production at utilities and mines, as demand for both
electricity and gas surged. At 114.4 percent of its 1987 average, industrial production was 4.7 percent higher in January than
it was a year ago. The utilization of total industrial capacity advanced 0.2 percentage point to 83.1 percent, which is
2.2 percentage points above the year-ago level but 1.7 percentage points below the 1988-89 peak.
Market Groups
The output of consumer goods grew 0.3 percent in January, about the same as December's rate of increase.
Within this market group, the effects of the weather were somewhat offsetting: Many plants in the motor vehicles and
appliance industries closed for a day or more, but the production of electricity and gas for residential use rose sharply.

The rapid expansion in the output of business equipment excluding motor vehicles continued last month, led
again by strong gains in the production of computers. The output of industrial equipment, which had risen sharply toward
the end of 1993, posted only a small gain in January.
Elsewhere, the rate of growth in the output of construction supplies fell from 1.9 percent to 0.3 percent and that
of materials declined from 1.3 to 0.5 percent. Among materials, the growth of durables declined from 1.8 to 0.3 percent, led
by weather-affected losses in the production of steel products and motor vehicle parts and supplies. The production of
nondurable materials declined 0.6 percent after having increased during each of the three previous months. In contrast, the
production of energy-related materials grew 1.7 percent.
Industry Groups
Reflecting the negative effects of January's severe weather, manufacturing output expanded just 0.2 percent.
Production by manufacturers of durable goods grew 0.6 percent, compared with increases of 1.6 percent in November and
1.7 percent in December. Although most durable goods industries experienced much slower growth in January, the level of
production in the iron and steel industry actually fell 5.7 percent. The output of motor vehicles and parts producers increased
only 1.7 percent, well short of the 4.5 to 7.8 percent increases posted during the previous three months. Production by
manufacturers of nondurable goods declined 0.4 percent on a broad front. Outside of manufacturing, the output at utilities
rose a strong 3.5 percent; output had risen 0.9 percent in each of the two previous months. The output at mines increased
0.8 percent, in part because on an increase in coal production. The utilization rate in manufacturing edged down to
82.1 percent; the rate in advanced processing industries inched up 0.2 percentage point and that in primary-processing
industries fell 0.6 percentage point.

NOTICE

Revised indexes of industrial production and rates of capacity utilization were published as a supplement to the
G.17 (419) statistical release on February 4, 1994. Revised production statistics begin in 1991 and revised
capacity utilization statistics begin in 1990,
Points of information
• The revisions to production primarily reflect the incorporation of more comprehensive monthly source data,
review of the production factor coefficients, and updated seasonal factors.
® The revisions to capacity utilization reflect improved estimates of capital stocks and preliminary results from
the Census Survey of Plant Capacity for 1991 and 1992.
® Diskettes containing the revised data are available from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System, Publications Services, at (202) 452-3245. Files containing the revised data and the text and tables
from the release describing the revision are also available through the Economic Bulletin Board of the
Department of Commerce; for information, call (202) 482-1986.
• A release describing the revision and a document with printed tables of the revised estimates of series shown
in the G.17 release are available upon written request to the Industrial Output Section, Mail Stop 82, Division
of Research and Statistics, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, DC 20551.

Explanatory Note
i he statistical release of Industrial Production and Capacity Utilization reports
measures of output, capacity, and capacity utilization in manufacturing, mining, and
the electric and gas utilities industries. It also includes survey data on the use of
electric power in manufacturing and mining. Data in the release are av ailable on-line
on the day of issue through the Economic Bulletin Board of the Department of
Commerce. For information, call (202) 482-1986. 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. For the period since
1987. the total IP index has been constructed from 255 individual series based on the
1987 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC). These individual series are classified
and grouped in two ways: 11) market groups (shown in table I). such as consumer
goods, equipment, intermediate products, and materials: and i2) 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 nomndustrial 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, and final products are divided info 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 rev ision 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. In 1993. a revision that converted the indexes to
the 1987 SIC from 1987 forward was published.
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 Sunex of Manufactures.
prepared by the Bureau of the Census; the Minerals Yearbook, prepared by the
Bureau of Mines: and publications of the Department of Energy. On a monthly basis,
the indiv idual 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
ions 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 produetion-wprker
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 in
chronological segments that are linked together to form a continuous index
expressed as a.percentage of output in a comparison base year (currently 1987). Each
segment, which usually spans five years, is a Laspeyres quantity index showing
changes in quantities with prices (Census value added per unit of output) held at
base-year values for the segment. For the period from 1987 to the present, IP is
aggregated on the basis of 1987 value-added weights. The aggregation of the index
for the 1982-86 period is based on 1982 weights, whereas 1977 weights are used for
the 1977-81 period. The other weight years in the postwar period are 1972, 1967,
1963, 1958- 1954. and 1947. The 1987*value-added weights used to aggregate the
index are shown in the first column of tables 1, 2, and 6, in the "1987" column under
the heading "Proportion in total IP." Proportions for the most recent complete year of
data are shown in the second column of tables 1, 2, and 6.
Seasonal adjustment. Individual series are seasonally adjusted by the X-l 1 ARIMA
method, developed at Statistics Canada. For series based on production-worker
hours, the current seasonal factors were estimated with data through October 1993;
for other series, the factors were estimated with data through July 1993. In some
cases, series were preadjusted for the effects of holidays or the business cycle before
using X—11 ARIMA. The seasonally adjusted total index is calculated by
aggregating the seasonally adjusted major market groups, and may not precisely
equal an aggregation of the seasonally adjusted industry groups.

Reliability. The average revision to tKe level of the total IP index, without regard to
sign, between the preliminary estimate and its third rev ision (or from the first and the
fourth estimates) was 0.35 percent during the 1972-92 period. The average rev ision
to the percent change in total IP. without regard to sign, from the first to the fourth
estimates was 0.26 percentage point during the same period. In most cases (about 85
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:1
Rounding. In some eases, .components may not add to totals because of independent
rounding-. In addition, 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 75 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 stock.
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. Value-added proportions are used to weight the individual capacity
indexes in aggregations in the same manner as indiv idual IP series are aggregated to
the total index of industrial production. Although each utilization rate is the result of
dividing an IP series by a corresponding capaerv index, aggregate utilization rates
are equivalent to combinations of individual utilization rates aggregated with
proportions that reflect current capacity levels of output vallied in base-period
value-added per unit of actual output. The implied proportions of indi\ idual 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- MM) percent:
none of the broad aggregates has ever reached 1(X) percent. For total industry and
total manufacturing, utilization rates as high as 90 percent have been exceeded only
in wartime.
References. The basic methodology used to estimate capacity and utilization is
discussed in the Federal Resene Bulletin, vol. 71 (October 1985). pp. 754-66. The
1990 and 1993 revisions were described in the Federal Reserve Bulletin, vol. 76
(June 1990), pp. 412-35 and vol. 79 (June 1993), pp. 590-605. respectively. The
1994 revision to the index will be described in the Federal Reserve Bulletin, vol. 80
(March 1994), forthcoming.
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 1987. The first column of t£ie table shows, for reference, electric power use
in billions of kilowatt hours as reported by manufacturing and mining industries in
the 1987 censuses of those industries. The supplementary group. Total, less nuclear
nondefense." is shown separately because the nondefense nuclear material series
(part of SIC 2819) accounts for a disproportionately large part of total electric power
use. Because the value-added proportion.-for this industry 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.
