NBER-CES Manufacturing Industry Database (Public Use Dataset)

This is a copy of the database available at http://www.nber.org/nberces/.

This database is a joint effort between the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) and U.S. Census Bureau's Center for Economic Studies (CES), containing annual industry-level data from 1958-2011 on output, employment, payroll and other input costs, investment, capital stocks, TFP, and various industry-specific price indexes. Because of the change from SIC to NAICS industry definitions in 1997, the database is provided in two versions: one with 459 four-digit 1987 SIC industries and the other with 473 six-digit 1997 NAICS industries. This public data is available in the Federal Statistical Research Data Center to use alongside restricted data. To use this data outside of an FSRDC project, go http://www.nber.org/nberces/
