Title: Estimation of Gross Output of the Manufacturing Sector - A Longitudinal Approach
Author(s): Sanping Chen*+ and Cindy Ubartas
Companies: Statistics Canada and Statistics Canada
Keywords: Gross output ; Gross Domestic Product ; Quality Measure ; longitudinal method ; manufacturing sector
Abstract:

Gross Output (GO) is the critical component for the "value-added" method to measure the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Traditionally, both GO and GDP are calculated and published by statistical agencies without any quality measures. In this work, we establish a new longitudinal method for estimating Canada's manufacturing sector GO that produces variance estimates in a well-structured framework.
