Geographic identifier code Represents the geography shown for these data. The following geographic levels are shown for economic censuses and
(GEO_ID) related programs:

* United States. For the Economic Census, this represents data for the 50 states and the District of Columbia. For the
Mining sector (NAICS 21) this also includes establishments physically located in the Atlantic, North Gulf of Mexico, and
Pacific Offshore Areas. It excludes the 5 Island Areas (American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico,
and the US Virgin Islands); these areas are published separately in the Economic Census of Island Areas.
The GEO_ID for this record is: "0100000US".

* Offshore Areas. The Mining sector for the Economic Census publishes totals for businesses located in Offshore Areas.
These areas are published using a Geographic Component code for the United States (GEO_COMP = 'R0').
The GEO_ID for this record is: "01000R0US".

* States. Includes all 50 states and the District of Columbia. In addition, the Census Bureau also treats the island areas as
state equivalents. The island areas include Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, The Northern Mariana Islands, and
American Samoa.
The syntax of GEO_ID for these records is: "0400000US" plus the FIPS State code (ST).

* Counties or county equivalents. Counties are the primary divisions of States, except in Louisiana where they are called
parishes and in Alaska where they are called boroughs and census areas. Maryland, Missouri, Nevada, and Virginia have
one place or more that is independent of any county organization and constitutes primary divisions of their States. These
places are treated as counties. The District of Columbia is also treated as a county-equivalent area.
The Economic Census of Island Areas also has geographies treated as county equivalents for census purposes. These
include Islands and Districts in American Samoa, Districts in Guam, Municipalities in the Northern Mariana Islands,
Municipios in Puerto Rico, and Islands in the Virgin Islands.
The syntax of GEO_ID for these records is: "0500000US" plus the FIPS State code (ST) plus the FIPS County code (COUNTY).

* Economic Places. The term "economic places" includes boroughs, towns, and villages, except boroughs in Alaska and
New York. For the Economic Census purposes, places are defined as incorporated municipalities with populations of at
least 2,500 based on the latest 5-year ACS estimates, or other latest available estimates. In addition, unincorporated
municipalities (also known as Census Designated Places or CDPs) with populations of at least 2,500 are also covered.
Finally, incorporated and unicorporated places with at least 2,500 jobs, based on the latest 5-year ACS estimates or other
latest available estimates, are also included in the Economic Census.
For the Economic Census, "Balances of Counties" are also recognized as "economic places." A "balance of county" is the
residual area of a county (or equivalent entity) outside any entity(s) recognized separately as a place by the preceding place
definitions.
The syntax of GEO_ID for these records is: "E600000US" plus the FIPS State code (ST) plus the FIPS County code (COUNTY)
plus the FIPS Place code (PLACE).

* Economic Part Places. Includes the parts of boroughs, towns, and villages (except boroughs in Alaska and New York)
that cross county boundaries.
The syntax of GEO_ID for these records is: "E650000US" plus the FIPS State code (ST) plus the FIPS County code (COUNTY)
plus the FIPS Place code (PLACE).

* Consolidated Cities. A consolidated government is a unit of local government for which the functions of an incorporated
place and its county or minor civil division (MCD) have merged. The legal aspects of this action may result in both the
primary incorporated
data.census.gov | Measuring America's place
People, Places, andand the county or MCD continuing to exist as legal entities, even though the county or MCD
Economy 5
performs few or no governmental functions and has few or no elected officials. Where this occurs, and where one or more
other incorporated places in the county or MCD continue to function as separate governments, even though they have
been included in the consolidated government, the primary incorporated place is referred to as a "consolidated city."

2017 NAICS code (NAICS2017) The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) was developed by representatives from the United States,
Canada, and Mexico and replaces each country's separate classification system with one uniform system for classifying
industries. In the United States, NAICS replaces the Standard Industrial Classification, a system that Federal, State, and local
governments, the business community, and the general public have used since the 1930s. This industry classification
system enables North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) partners-- the United States, Canada, and Mexico-- to
better compare economic and financial statistics and ensure that such statistics keep pace with the changing economy.

Sales, value of shipments, or General Definition


revenue ($1,000) (RCPTOT)
Sales, value of shipments, or revenue refers to all appropriate dollar volume measures including total sales, value of
shipments, revenue, receipts, or business done at any time during the census year, whether or not payment was received
during the census year, by domestic establishments (excluding foreign subsidiaries) within the scope of the economic
census. Detailed descriptions of each are included in the sector-specific information below.

Data are shown in thousands of dollars ($1,000).

Sector-Specific Information

Manufacturing Sector

Includes the net selling values (exclusive of freight and excise taxes) of all products shipped including installation and
repair, sales of scrap, and sales of products bought and sold without further processing. Included are all products physically
shipped by the establishments, whether sold, transferred to other plants of the same firm, or shipped on consignments.
For products transferred to other establishments of the same firm, or prepared on a custom or toll basis, firms were
requested to report the estimated value, not merely the cost of producing the product.

NAPCS collection code sales, value of shipments, or revenue as % of total sales, value of shipments, or revenue of
establishments with the NAPCS collection code (%)

General Definition

Sales, value of shipments, or revenue of a NAPCS collection code as a percent of total sales, value of shipments, or revenue
of an industry handling the NAPCS collection code.

Relative standard error for This is expressed as a percent of this item's estimate. Since the estimate is based on a sample, rather than a complete
estimate of sales, value of census, it is subject to sampling variability and may differ from results that would have been obtained from a complete
shipments, or revenue (%) census. The relative standard error is a measure of this sampling variability. As calculated for this survey, the relative
(RCPTOT_S) standard error also partially reflects various response errors and processing errors. Estimates that have large relative
standard errors should be used with caution.

Annual payroll ($1,000) General Definition


(PAYANN)
This definition of payroll is the same as that used by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on Forms 941 or 944 as taxable
Medicare Wages and Tips (even if not subject to income or FICA tax). If an employee works at more than one location, the
payroll is included in the one location where they spend most of their time.

Payroll includes all forms of compensation paid during the reporting year to all employees, such as salaries, wages, tips and
gratuities, commissions, bonuses, vacation allowances, sick leave pay, dismissal pay, the spread on stock options that is
taxable to employees as income (except for the manufacturing and mining industries who include this in fringe benefits),
and employee contributions to qualified pension plans. For corporations, payroll includes amounts paid to officers and
executives.

Excluded from payroll are employer's costs for fringe benefits such as payroll taxes, employer-paid insurance premiums,
pension plans, and other employer-paid benefits. For unincorporated businesses, payroll does not include profit or other
compensation of proprietors or partners. It does not include payrolls of leased departments nor annuities or supplemental
unemployment compensation benefits, even if income tax was withheld. Payroll is reported before deductions for social
security, income tax, insurance, union dues, etc.

"Production workers" refers to workers up through the line-supervisor level engaged in fabricating, processing, assembling,
inspecting, receiving, packing, warehousing, shipping (but not delivering) maintenance, repair, janitorial, guard services,
product development, auxiliary production for the plant's own use (e.g., power plant workers), recordkeeping, and other
closely associated services (including truck drivers delivering ready-mixed concrete).

Note: For employment and related fields (payroll, production hours, benefits), respondents were asked to report only those
full- and part-time employees whose payroll was reported on the IRS Forms 941 or 944 filing for the Employer
Identification Number (EIN) used by that establishment. Other temporary workers and workers whose payroll was reported
under a different firm's EIN were reported elsewhere. Comparisons of census-year data and data for earlier years should be
used with caution.

Data are shown in thousands of dollars ($1,000).

Sector-Specific Information

Manufacturing Sector

Excluded are payments to members of Armed Forces and pensioners carried on the active payrolls of manufacturing
establishments.

First-quarter payroll ($1,000)

First-quarter payroll includes the payroll paid before deductions to persons employed at any time during the quarter from
January to March of the reporting year. Data are shown in thousands of dollars ($1,000).

standard errors should be used with caution.

Number of employees (EMP) General Definition

This definition of paid employees is the same as that used by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on Forms 941 or 944. Paid
employees consist of full- and part-time employees, including salaried officers and executives of corporations and salaried
members of professional service organizations or associations, who were on the payroll during the pay period including
March 12. Included are employees on paid sick leave, paid holidays, and paid vacations.

Excluded are proprietors and partners of unincorporated businesses; independent (nonemployee) agents; full- and part-
time leased employees whose payroll was filed under an employee leasing company's Employer Identification Number
(EIN); temporary staffing obtained from a staffing service; employees in leased departments; and subcontractors and their
employees.

"Production workers" refers to workers up through the line-supervisor level engaged in fabricating, processing, assembling,
inspecting, receiving, packing, warehousing, shipping (but not delivering) maintenance, repair, janitorial, guard services,
product development, auxiliary production for the plant's own use (e.g., power plant workers), recordkeeping, and other

The "all employees" number is the number of production workers who were on the payroll for the pay period including
March 12 plus the number of other employees who were on the payroll in mid-March.

The "production workers" number includes workers (up through the line-supervisor level) engaged in fabricating,
processing, assembling, inspecting, receiving, storing, handling, packing, warehousing, shipping (but not delivering),
maintenance, repair, janitorial and guard services, product development, auxiliary production for plant's own use (e.g.,

Total fringe benefits ($1,000) General Definition


(BENEFIT)
The total sum of fringe benefits of all non-leased full-time and part-time employees on the payrolls of firms during any part
of the year. Includes expenditures made by the employer for legally required and voluntary fringe benefit programs for
employees. The legally required portion consists primarily of federal old age and survivors' insurance, unemployment
compensation, and workers' compensation. Payments for voluntary programs include all programs not specifically required
by legislation, whether they were employer initiated or the result of collective bargaining. They exclude such items as
losses on company-operated cafeterias and snack bars, cost of in-plant medical services, cost of free parking lots, discounts
on employee purchases, cost of uniforms and other work clothing supplied to employees and similar expenditures, and
wages and salaries reported in payroll (holidays, vacations, sick pay, bonuses, jury pay, costs for training, and partially
subsidized housing and safety).

Value added ($1,000) General Definition


(VALADD)
The value added is the measure of manufacturing activities to avoid the duplication in the figure for sales, value of
shipments, or revenue.

Data are shown in thousands of dollars ($1,000).

Sector-Specific Information

Manufacturing Sector

This measure of manufacturing activity is derived by subtracting the cost of materials, supplies, containers, fuel, purchased
electricity, and contract work from the value of shipments (products manufactured plus receipts for services rendered).
The result of this calculation is adjusted by the addition of value added by merchandising operations (i.e., the difference
between the sales value and the cost of merchandise sold without further manufacture, processing, or assembly) plus the
net change in finished goods and work-in-process between the beginning- and end-of-year inventories.

"Value added" avoids the duplication in the figure for value of shipments that results from the use of products of some
establishments as materials by others. Value added is considered to be the best value measure available for comparing the
relative economic importance of manufacturing among industries and geographic areas.

When using inventory data by stage of fabrication for (all industries) and at the three-digit subsector level, it should be
noted that an item treated as a finished product by an establishment in one industry may be reported as a raw material by
an establishment in a different industry. For example, the finished-product inventories of a steel mill would be reported as
raw materials by a stamping plant. Such differences are present in the inventory figures by stage of fabrication shown for
all publication levels.

equipment rentals. Includes operating leases. It is defined as the following two types:

* Rental payments or lease payments for buildings and other structures - Includes all costs for renting or leasing space
and buildings. Also includes job-site trailers and land on which the buildings and other structures stand. Excludes costs
under agreements that are in effect conditional sales contracts such as capital leases.

* Rental payments or lease payments for machinery and equipment - Includes production, loading, and transportation
machinery and equipment, construction equipment, tools, office equipment, furniture, and vehicles. Excludes computer
time-sharing charges for machinery and equipment rentals from computer service firms where the computer is not on site
at the establishment.

Data are shown in thousands of dollars ($1,000).

Relative standard error for This is expressed as a percent of this item's estimate. Since the estimate is based on a sample, rather than a complete
estimate of total rental census, it is subject to sampling variability and may differ from results that would have been obtained from a complete
