MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY SURVEY

The ACLC Industry Classification includes the classes 341 Sports and physical recreation goods manufacturing and 481 Other culture and leisure goods manufacturing. It would be ideal for data to be separately available for both classes, however, the Manufacturing Industry Survey uses the Australian and New Zealand Standard Industry Classification (ANZSIC) to classify industry rather than the ACLC.

The data published for 2006-07 are based on the 2006 ANZSIC. Previous data were compiled using the 1993 ANZSIC. The only 2006 ANZSIC class which corresponds closely in scope to ACLC classes 341 and 481 is 2592 Toy, sporting and recreational product manufacturing. The 1993 ANZSIC class which corresponds closely in scope to ACLC classes 341 and 481 is 2942 Toy and sporting good manufacturing. All includes and excludes have remained unchanged between the 1993 ANZSIC and 2006 ANZSIC for these two respective classes. The scope of these ANZSIC classes are wholly contained within, but much narrower than the combined scope of the two ACLC classes.

In 2006-07, the total income of toy, sporting and recreational product manufacturers was $520m. This figure decreased by $4m (0.8%) from 2005-06. Total expenses came to $486m. Of this figure, 22% ($108m) was spent on labour costs. The contribution of wages and salaries to labour costs was $96m (89%). The operating profit before tax was $29m and the operating profit margin was 5.7%.

At the end of June 2007, there were 3,564 persons employed by toy, sporting and recreational product manufacturers.
