VALIDITY OF THE METHODOLOGY

The previous issue of this publication noted that, for the 2006-07 EAS, the sample size was increased to enable ANZSIC class data to be published in Manufacturing Industry, Australia, 2006-07 (cat. no. 8221.0). In order to test the validity of the experimental estimates methodology, ANZSIC class level experimental estimates for 2006-07 were produced from what would have been the usual EAS sample size. These experimental estimates compared favourably with the official estimates published in Manufacturing Industry, Australia, 2006-07, lending support to the validity of the experimental estimates methodology.
