Keywords: Outlier, Hidiroglou-Berthelot Edit Method

This paper will introduce a new ratio edit method. This new method gives more importance to larger units as the well-known Hidiroglou-Berthelot (HB) ratio edit method does. Here we compare the new edit method with HB edit method using some examples, and the Annual Survey of Public Employment and Payroll (ASPEP). The current method we use for ASPEP is the HB edit method and, it either creates too many outliers or misses many true outliers. This paper will show that the new edit method works better than the HB edit method for certain non-symmetric ASPEP survey data in detecting outliers, and for a symmetric data we created. This new edit method can be used for historical ratios to detect outliers.
