Abstract:
|
This paper reports on a project to create a general-purpose program in R for revision limits, either for trend or seasonally adjusted series, levels or growth rates, which can be applied to any type of series. The methods are based on research presented by Kenny (2006). The program has been applied to a number of series published by the UK Office for National Statistics (ONS); the paper discusses the results for trend revision limits, and the usefulness to policy makers and to the general public of the inclusion of these limits in the published data.
