PRODUCTIVITY COSTS
Second Quarter 1994
Business , Nonfarm Business , and Manufacturing Sectors
Productivity, as measured by output per hourr of all persons, increased at a 2 .9
percent seasonally adjusted annual rate in the second quarter of 1984 in the
business sector, according to preliminary measures announced today by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U .S . Department of Labor (table A) . During
the first quarter, productivity advanced 4 .n percent, according to revised
measures .
The following tabulation shows the annual rate of productivity increase in the
second quarter in major sectors :

in table A and appear in detail in

All of the productivity and cost measures in this release incorporate revised
output and compensation measures reported by the Bureau of Economic Analysis
of the U .S . Department of Commerce on July 23, 1984, as Hart of the regular
revision cycle of the National Income and Product Accounts--the Gross
National Product ( GNP) measures . These revisions affected the productivity
and cost measures beginning with 1981 .
In addition, revised values for seasonally adjusting measures of employment
and average weekly hours were introduced . Also, data for employees of
nonagricultural establishments were re-henchmarked to the most recent levels
from Unemployment insurance data and improved estimates of employment levels
in agricultural services were incorporated . These additional changes
affected, in some cases, measures for years prior to 1981 . Historical.
information, which shows the effect of these revisions, is avail .ahle on
request from the office of productivity and Technology, Bureau of Labor
Statistics, Washington, n .C . .20212 ; telephone (202) 523-0261 .

The appendix tables contained in this news release present the productivity
and related measures for the entire period affected by the GNP revisions-1981 forward .

Business sector
Output per hour of all persons engaged in the business sector increased at an
annual rate of 2 .8 percent during the second quarter of 1984, compared with a
4 .0 percent increase during the first quarter (table 1) . The second quarter
increase reflected a 8 .7 percent advance in output and an increase of 5 .7
percent in hours . Output and hours both grew more moderately in the second
quarter than in the first, but employment increased at a 4 .R percent
seasonally adjusted annual rate to both quarters .

and employer
which includes wages, salaries ,
Hourly compensation ,
contributions to employee benefit plans, increased at a 1 .8 percent annual
rate during the second quarter, compared with a 6 .2 percent gain during the
in hourly
first quarter . ( This measure nartly reflects a decline
compensation in the farm sector, which is incl uded in the business series .)
The second -quarter increase in hourly compensation in the business sector was
the smallest since the first quarter of 1969, when a 1 .7 percent increase was
recorded .
Real hourly compensation, which is adjusted for changes in the Consumer Price
Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), declined at a 1 .9 percent annual rate
during the second quarter, compared with a 1 .2 percent increase during the
first quarter of 1994 . This was the first decline in real hourly
compensation since the third quarter of 1 .023 .




Unit labor costs--compensation oer unit of output--declined at a I .n percent
annual rate during the second quarter, compared with a 3 .1 percent increase
during the first quarter .
The implicit price deflator for the business sector--which shows the effects
of changes in unit labor costs and unit nonlahor payments--increased at a 2 .7
percent annual rate during the second quarter, compared with a 3 .7 percent
gain during the first quarter .

Nnnfnrm hi . clnnsw

Productivity increased at a 3 .3 percent annual rate in the second quarter in
the nonfarm business sector, compared with a 2 .o percent gain during the
first quarter . Although productivity grew more rapidly in the second
quarter, output and hours growth was more moderate than during the first
quarter (table 2) .
Hourly compensation increased at a 3 .6 percent annual rate in the second
quarter, compared with a 6 .1 percent gain during the first quarter . Real
hourly compensation declined 0 .1 percent, compared with a 1 .(1 percent gain in
the first quarter . Reflecting the slowing of hourly compensation and the
faster productivity growth during the second quarter, unit labor costs rose
only 0 .1 percent compared with a 3 .1 percent rise during the first quarter .
The implicit price deflator for nonfarm business output increased 2 .2 percent
in the second quarter .

Manufacturing
Productivity rose at a 3 .2 percent annual rate in manufacturing during the
second quarter, as output increased 6 .2 percent and hours rose 4 .R percent .
The gains in productivity, output, and hours were all more moderate than in
the first quarter in this sector (table 3) . Hourly compensation slowed
appreciably in the second quarter, showing a 3 .1 percent rise . During the
first quarter, an 11 .0 percent increase occurred . After allowing for the
increase in the CPI-U, real hourly compensation declined at a 0 .6 percent
annual rate in the second quarter, compared with a 5 .8 percent rise during
the first quarter .
Productivity advanced more rapidly in nondurable than in durable goods
manufacturing in the second quarter : however, output and hours both increased
more among durable goods manufacturers . The more rapid growth in nondurahles
productivity was reflected in the 1 .4 percent decline in unit labor costs in
the sector . These costs rose 0 .6 percent in durables (tables A, 4, and S ) .

Revised measures
As noted in the box on page 1, all of the measures in this news release
reflect revised ;NP series recently released by the U .S . Department of
seasonal
Commerce . This more complete data, along with newly computed
adjustment factors and benchmark levels, resulted in changes in both annual
.
The
new
data
are
found
in
and quarterly productivity and cost series
appendix tables 1 through 6 .
TECHNICAL NOTES
Business sector output {s equal to gross national product, less the rest-ofthe-world sector, general government, output of paid employees of private
households and nonprofit institutions, rental value of owner-occupied dwellings,
and the statistical discrepancy in computing the national income accounts .
Corresponding exclusions are also made in labor inputs . Business output has
accounted for about 77 percent of gross national product in recent years .

Total manufacturing measures are computed by summing series brepared for the
durable and nondurable goods sectors .
The durable sector includes the following 2-digit SIC industries : Primary
metals ; fabricated metal products ; nonelectrical machinery ; electrical machinery ;
transportation equipment : instruments ; lumber and lumber products : furniture and
fixtures : stone, clay, and glass products ; and miscellaneous manufactures . The
nondurable sector includes the following 2-digit SIC industries : Textile mill
products, apparel products, leather and leather products, printing and
publishing, chemicals and chemical products, petroleum products, rubber and
plastic products, foods, and tobacco products .

Manufacturing output has accounted for about 24 percent of gross national product
in recent years .
Nonfinancial corporate output is equal to gross national product, less the
rest-of-the-world sector, general government, unincorporated business, output of
paid employees of private households and nonprofit institutions, rental value of
owner-occupied dwellings, the output of corporations engaged in banking, finance,
stock and commodity trading, and c=_dit and insurance agencies, and the
statistical discrepancy in computing the national income accounts . Nonfinancial
corporate output has accounted for about 30 percent of gross national product in
recent years .
The productivity and associated cost measures in this news release describe the
relationship between output in real terms and the labor time involved in its
production . They show the changes from period to period in the amount of goods
and services produced per hour . Although these measures relate output to hours
of all persons engaged in a sector, they do not measure the specific
contributions of labor, capital, or any other factor of production . Rather, they
reflect the joint effects of many influences, incl .uding changes in technology ;
capital investment : level of output : utilization of capacity, energy, and
materials ; the organization of production : managerial skill : and the
characteristics and effort of the work force .
