Introduction to the Economic Census

PURPOSES AND USES OF THE ECONOMIC CENSUS

“The economic census fs the malor source of facts about

the structure and functioning ofthe Nations economy

provides essential information for government, business,

Industry, andthe general pubic Tle 13 ofthe United

States Code Sections 131, 191, and 224) directs the Cen

sus Bureau to take the economic census every 5 yeas,

‘covering years ending in 2 and 7

"The economic census furishes an important part ofthe

framework for such composite measures as the gross

domestic product estimates, input/output measures, pre

Guction and price indexes, and other statistical series that

‘measure short-term changes n economic conditions Spe

‘fic uses of economic census data include the following:

+ Policymaking agencies ofthe Federal Government use

the data to monitor economic activity and assess the

effectiveness of palcies

+ State and local governments use the data to assess

business activites and tax bases within ther urs

‘ons and to develop programs to attract busines

‘Trade associations study trends in thle own and com

peting industries, which allows them to keep thelr mem:

bers informed of market changes

«+ Individual businesses use the data to locate potential

‘markets and to analyze thet own production and sales

performance relative to Industry or area averages

|ALLNEW INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATIONS

‘The 20 NAICS sectors are subdivided ino 96 subsectors {three-digit codes), 313 Industry groups four-digit codes), and, as implemented in the United Sates, 1170 industries {five and sbedigt codes)

[RELATIONSHIP TO SiC While many of the individual NAICS industries corre- spond directly to industries as defined under the SIC sys tem, most of the higher level groupings do not Panicular

‘are should be taken in companng data for retall trade,

‘wholesale trade, and manufacturing, which are sector {les used in both NAICS and SIC, but cover somewhat dif {erent groups of Industries The industry definitions di uss the relationships between NAICS and SIC industries, Where changes ar significant, wl ot be possible to
