Note: 1. A measure of manufacturing activity that is derived by subtracting the cost of materials (which covers materials, supplies, containers, fuel, purchased electricity, and contract work) from the value of shipments. This difference is then adjusted by the net change in finished goods and work-in-progress between the beginning- and end-of-year inventories.
2. Deflated using BEA's chain-type price indices for value added. Individual deflators are not available for NAICS 313 and 314, and the combined deflator for "Textile Mills and Textile Product Mills" (NAICS 313, 314) is used. For NAICS 315 and NAICS 316, the combined deflator for " Apparel and Leather and Allied Products" (NAICS 315, 316) and for NAICS 311 and NAICS 312, the combined deflator for " Food and Beverage and Tobacco Products" are used.
