Almost certainly the final conversion factors for 2001 will differ somewhat from the initial estimates. In the charts provided below, final year 2000 conversion factors, rather than estimated 2001 conversion factors will be used. Final conversion factors for year 2001 dollars and estimates for dollars of 2002 will be available early in 2002, after final CPI figures for 2001 are published. The 2000 and 2001 conversion factors use revised data, from John J. McCusker and colleagues, for the period 1700 to 1900. Data are revised periodically with adjustments and additions.
Suggestions are welcome.
