Corrections to Major Sector Multifactor Productivity Data

Multifactor productivity data for the private business and private nonfarm business sectors were corrected July 19, 2013. Capital services were incorrectly calculated for 2012. Measures of multifactor productivity, output per unit of capital services, combined inputs, capital services per hour, and the contribution of capital intensity were affected by this error.

Only data for 2012 were affected-measures for all other years were correct as published June 28, 2013.

The news release Preliminary Multifactor Productivity Trends, 2012, USDL-13-1245 was reissued on July 19, 2013. In addition, the following LABSTAT data series were affected and corrected on July 19, 2013.
