Full Description

Value of industry shipments (millions of dollars). These are based on net selling values, f.o.b. plant, after discounts and allowances. This includes receipts for contract work and miscellaneous services provided by the plant to others. VSHIP is not adjusted for inventory changes, and can include large amounts of duplication across industries or even across plants in the same industry (especially machinery and transportation industries that often include production of parts as well as final products).
