* Shipments and new orders are the totals for the period and are adjusted for trading-day and calendar-month variations

(n) When new orders for a prior month are negative because of cancellations, the percentage change calculation is algebraically negative, even though there is a net di
increase trom the prior month to the current month.
Note: Estimates of manufacturers’ shipments, inventories and orders are subject to survey error and revision. One major component of survey error is nonsampling ¢
which includes errors of coverage, response, and nonreporting. Since the survey panel is not a probability sample, estimates of sampling error cannot be calculated. Fur
on survey design, methodology, and data limitations are contained in our most recent annual benchmark publication, Current Industrial Reports: M3-1(
"Manufacturers" Shipments, Inventories, and Orders; 1987-1996."
