 G.17 (419) Supplement                                               For release at 9:15 a.m. (EST)
                                                                     November 16, 2001

 INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION AND CAPACITY UTILIZATION

      In October, industrial production fell 1.1 percent, to 139.3 percent of its 1992 average,
 and was 6.3 percent below its level a year ago.  Manufacturing output decreased 1.2 percent in
 October, mining output decreased 1.3 percent, and utilities production rose 0.6 percent.  The rate
 of capacity utilization for total industry fell 0.9 percentage point, to 74.8 percent, a level 7.3
 percentage points below its 1967-2000 average.
 

 Market Groups
 -------------
      The output of consumer goods declined 0.4 percent in October.  A drop of 2.6 percent in
 durable consumer goods included sizable declines in the output of automotive products,
 appliances, furniture and carpeting goods, and miscellaneous goods.  Despite decreases in all
 major categories of non-energy nondurable consumer goods (the largest being a 1.1 percent drop
 in clothing output), a 2.1 percent increase in consumer energy products pushed the index for total
 consumer nondurables to a 0.2 percent gain for the month.
      The production of business equipment, which fell 1.7 percent in October, was nearly 12
 percent lower than in October 2000.  The output of transit equipment declined more than 3
 percent for a third consecutive month and has dropped 13.6 percent over the past twelve months.
 Production indexes for information processing equipment and for industrial and other equipment
 declined more than 1 percent in October.  The output of defense and space equipment fell 0.5
 percent but remained 1.6 percent above its level a year ago.  The output of construction supplies,
 which decreased 2.0 percent, showed significant losses in many industries, including lumber and
 plywood.  The production of business supplies slipped 0.3 percent and was 7.7 percent below its
 level a year ago.
      The output of industrial materials declined 1.3 percent, its largest drop since June 1998.
 The output of steel and parts for motor vehicles declined substantially in October; overall,
 durable materials production decreased 1.8 percent, to 10 percent below its level a year ago.  The
 output of nondurable materials, which had increased in the third quarter, fell 0.9 percent in
 October; most major components posted declines.  The 0.6 percent decline in the production of
 energy materials was mostly attributable to reductions in coal and crude oil output.
 

 Industry Groups
 ---------------
      After having fallen 1.1 percent in September, manufacturing output dropped 1.2 percent
 in October.  The combined two-month decrease was last exceeded in the winter of 1981-82.
 Reductions were evident in nearly all major industries.  The production of durable goods fell 1.9
 percent in October and has declined more than 9 percent over the past twelve months.  The
 October decline was marked by noticeable cutbacks in the output of primary metals, motor
 vehicles and parts, lumber and products, and furniture and fixtures.  The production of
 nondurables fell 0.4 percent; decreases in apparel products, textile mill products, and paper and
 products more than offset a 2.9 percent increase in petroleum products.  The overall factory
 operating rate declined about 1 percentage point, to 73.1 percent, and decreases appeared both in
 advanced-processing and primary-processing industries.
      At mines, production fell 1.3 percent; the utilization rate decreased to 88.6 percent but
 remained above its long-run average.  The output of utilities increased 0.6 percent; the operating
 rate rose 0.3 percentage point, to 86 percent, 1.6 percentage points below its long-term average.
 
 
 Revision of Industrial Production and Capacity Utilization
      On November 27 at 11 a.m. eastern time, the Federal Reserve Board will publish
 revisions to the index of industrial production (IP), to the related measures of capacity and
 capacity utilization, and to the index of industrial use of electric power.  The updated measures
 will reflect the incorporation of newly available, more comprehensive source data typical of
 annual revisions.  The new source data are for recent years, primarily 1999 and 2000, although
 data from 1992 onward will be subject to revision.
      Industrial production and capacity utilization will continue to be based on the 1987
 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) until the 2002 annual revision, after which they will be
 constructed from the North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS).  The new
 NAICS-related production indexes will be based on annual output measures that are constructed
 by reclassifying the establishments in historical Censuses of Manufactures and Mineral
 Industries under NAICS; annual output indexes constructed this way will maximize the
 reliability and historical consistency of the IP industry detail.
      The updating of source data for IP in the 2001 annual revision will include annual data
 from the 1999 Bureau of the Census Annual Survey of Manufactures and from selected editions
 of its 1999 and 2000 Current Industrial Reports.  Annual data from the U.S. Geological Survey
 regarding metallic and nonmetallic minerals (except fuels) for 1999 and 2000 will also be
 introduced.  The updating will include revisions to the monthly indicator for each industry
 (either physical product data, production-worker hours, or electric power usage) and to seasonal
 factors.
      Capacity and capacity utilization will be revised to incorporate preliminary data from the
 2000 Survey of Plant Capacity of the Bureau of the Census, which covers manufacturing, along
 with other new data on capacity from the U.S. Geological Survey, the Department of Energy,
 and other organizations.  The statistics on the industrial use of electric power will incorporate
 additional information received from utilities for the past few years and will include some data
 from the 1997 Census of Manufactures and the 1998 and 1999 Annual Survey of Manufactures.
      Once the revision is published, it will be made available on the Board's web site
 (www.federalreserve.gov/releases/g17).  The revised data will also be available through the web
 site of the Department of Commerce.  Further information on these revisions is available from
 the Board's Industrial Output Section (telephone 202-452-3197).

 Industrial Production
 
 Coverage. The industrial production (IP) index measures output in the
 manufacturing, mining, and electric and gas utilities industries; the reference period
 for the index is 1992. For the period since 1997, the total IP index has been
 constructed from 276 individual series based on the 1987 Standard Industrial
 Classification (SIC). These individual series are classified in two ways: (1) market
 groups (shown in table 1), such as consumer goods, equipment, intermediate
 products, and materials; and (2) industry groups (shown in tables 2 and 6), such as
 two-digit SIC industries and major aggregates of these industries-for example,
 durable and nondurable manufacturing, mining, and utilities.
 
 Market groups. For purposes of analysis, the individual IP series are grouped into
 final products, intermediate products, and materials. Final products are assumed to be
 purchased by consumers, businesses, or government for final use. Intermediate
 products are expected to become inputs in nonindustrial sectors, such as
 construction, agriculture, and services. Materials are industrial output requiring
 further processing within the industrial sector. Total products comprise final and
 intermediate products; final products are divided into consumer goods and
 equipment.
 
 Timing. The first estimate of output for a month is published around the 15th of the
 following month. The estimate is preliminary (denoted by the superscript "p" in
 tables) and subject to revision in each of the subsequent three months as new source
 data become available. (Revised estimates are denoted by the superscript "r" in
 tables.) After the fourth month, indexes are not revised further until the time of an
 annual revision or a benchmark revision. The last three benchmark revisions were
 published in 1990, 1985, and 1976.
 
 Source data. In annual or benchmark revisions, the individual IP indexes are
 constructed from a variety of source data, such as the quinquennial Censuses of
 Manufactures and Mineral Industries and the Annual Survey of Manufactures,
 prepared by the Bureau of the Census; the Minerals Yearbook, prepared by the U.S.
 Geological Survey; and publications of the Department of Energy. On a monthly
 basis, the individual indexes of industrial production are constructed from two main
 types of source data: (1) output measured in physical units and (2) data on inputs to
 the production process, from which output is inferred. Data on physical products,
 such as tons of steel or barrels of oil, are obtained from private trade associations as
 well as from government agencies including those listed above; data of this type are
 used to estimate monthly IP where possible and appropriate. When suitable data on
 physical product are unavailable, estimates of output are based on either
 production-worker hours or electric power use by industry. Data on hours worked by
 production workers are collected in the monthly establishment survey conducted by
 the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The data on electric power use are described below.
 The factors used to convert inputs into estimates of production are based on historical
 relationships between the inputs and the comprehensive data used to benchmark the
 IP indexes; these factors also may be influenced by technological or cyclical
 developments. Especially for the first and second estimates for a given month, the
 available source data are limited and subject to revision.
 
 Weights. In the index, series that measure the output of an individual industry are
 weighted according to their proportion in the total value-added output of all
 industries. The industrial production index, which extends back to 1919, is built as a
 chain-type index since 1977. The components of IP are combined using annual
 estimates of value added per unit of output; for the data since 1992, the annual
 unit-value-added estimates are linearly interpolated to get monthly weights. The IP
 proportions shown in column 1 of tables 1A, 2A, and 6 are estimates of the industries'
 relative contributions to overall growth in the following year.  For example, a 1
 percent increase in durable goods manufacturing in 1997 would account for an
 increase in total IP of nearly 1/2 percent.
 
 Seasonal adjustment. Individual series are seasonally adjusted by the X-11 ARIMA
 method, developed at Statistics Canada. For series based on production-worker
 hours, the current seasonal factors were estimated with data through October 2000;
 for other series, the factors were estimated with data through at least June 2000.
 Series are preadjusted for the effects of holidays or the business cycle where
 appropriate.  For the data since 1977, all seasonally adjusted aggregate indexes are
 calculated by aggregating the seasonally adjusted indexes of the individual series.
 
 Reliability.  The average revision to the level of the total IP index, without regard to
 sign, between the first and the fourth estimates was 0.27 percent during the 1987-99
 period.  The average revision to the percent change in total IP, without regard to sign,
 from the first to the fourth estimates was 0.21 percentage point during the 1987-99
 period.  In most cases (about 83 percent), the direction of change in output indicated
 by the first estimate for a given month is the same as that shown by the fourth estimate.
 
 Rounding.  The published percent changes are calculated from unrounded indexes,
 and may not be the same as percent changes calculated from the rounded indexes
 shown in the release.
 
 Capacity Utilization
 
 Definition.  Capacity utilization is calculated for the manufacturing, mining, and
 electric and gas utilities industries. For a given industry, the utilization rate is equal to
 an output index divided by a capacity index. Output is measured by seasonally
 adjusted indexes of industrial production. The capacity indexes attempt to capture
 the concept of sustainable practical capacity, which is defined as the greatest level of
 output that a plant can maintain within the framework of a realistic work schedule,
 taking account of normal downtime, and assuming sufficient availability of inputs to
 operate the machinery and equipment in place. The 76 individual capacity indexes
 are based on a variety of data, including capacity data measured in physical units
 compiled by trade associations, surveys of utilization rates and investment, and
 estimates of growth of the capital input.
 
 Groups.  Estimates of capacity and utilization are available for a variety of groups,
 including primary and advanced processing industries within manufacturing,
 durable and nondurable manufacturing, total manufacturing, mining, utilities, and
 total industry. Component industries of the primary and advanced processing groups
 within manufacturing are listed in the note on tables 2 and 3 of the release.
 
 Weights.  Although each utilization rate is the result of dividing an IP series by a
 corresponding capacity index, aggregate utilization rates are equivalent to
 combinations of individual utilization rates aggregated with proportions that reflect
 current capacity levels of output valued in current-period value added per unit of
 actual output. The implied proportions of individual industry operating rates in the
 rate for total industry for the most recent year are shown in the first column of table 3.
 
 Perspective.  The historical highs and lows in capacity utilization shown in the tables
 above are specific to each series and did not all occur in the same month.  Industrial
 plants usually operate at capacity utilization rates that are well below 100 percent:
 none of the broad aggregates has ever reached 100 percent. For total industry and
 total manufacturing, utilization rates have exceeded 90 percent only in wartime.
 
 Electric Power
 
 Data on electric power (expressed in kilowatt hours) are collected by the Federal
 Reserve District Banks from electric utilities and also from manufacturing and
 mining establishments that generate electric power for their own use (cogenerators).
 The indexes of power use shown in table 9 are sums of kilowatt hours used by an
 industry or industry group expressed as a percentage of that industry's or group's
 usage in 1992.  The first column of the table shows, for reference, electric power use
 in billions of kilowatt hours as reported by manufacturing and mining industries in
 the 1992 censuses of those industries.  The supplementary group, "Total, less nuclear
 nondefense," is shown separately because the value-added proportion for the
 nondefense nuclear material series (part of SIC 2819) in total IP is considerably
 smaller than its share of total electric power use.  Excluding this component from total
