1. Value of Production Index (VaPI)

Month-on-month, the seasonally adjusted VaPI for total manufacturing increased by 3.7 percent in December 2024 from a 0.7 percent monthly decline in November 2024. (Figure 1a, and Tables A and 1)

Meanwhile, the seasonally adjusted VaPI for food manufacturing registered a monthly decline in December 2024 at 0.1 percent from the 4.3 percent monthly decrease observed in November 2024. (Figure 1b, and Tables A and 1)

Furthermore, the seasonally adjusted VaPI of industry divisions other than the manufacture of food are shown in Table 1a.  
 

2. Volume of Production Index (VoPI)

The monthly rate of the seasonally adjusted VoPI for total manufacturing increased by 4.0 percent in December 2024. In November 2024, a 1.9 percent month-on-month downtick was observed. (Figure 2a, and Tables A and 2)

Meanwhile, the monthly rate of the seasonally adjusted VoPI for food manufacturing dropped by 0.3 percent this month from its monthly decline of 5.2 percent in November 2024. (Figure 2b, and Tables A and 2)

In addition, the seasonally adjusted VoPI of industry divisions other than the manufacture of food are shown in Table 2a.  
 

3. Value of Net Sales Index (VaNSI)

In December 2024, the monthly increase of the seasonally adjusted VaNSI for total manufacturing slowed down to 4.5 percent from the 5.1 percent monthly increment in November 2024. (Figure 3a, and Tables A and 3)

On the contrary, a faster monthly rate of 2.4 percent was observed in the seasonally adjusted VaNSI for food manufacturing during the month from its monthly increment of 1.8 percent in November 2024. (Figure 3b, and Tables A and 3)

Furthermore, the seasonally adjusted VaNSI of industry divisions other than the manufacture of food are shown in Table 3a.  
 

4. Volume of Net Sales Index (VoNSI)

Month-on-month, the seasonally adjusted VoNSI for total manufacturing had a slower increase of 4.0 percent in December 2024 from a 4.8 percent monthly increment observed in November 2024. (Figure 4a, and Tables A and 4)

On the contrary, the monthly rate of the seasonally adjusted VoNSI for food manufacturing increased by 2.5 percent in December 2024 from its 0.9 percent month-on-month uptick in November 2024. (Figure 4b, and Tables A and 4)

Moreover, the seasonally adjusted VoNSI of industry divisions other than the manufacture of food are shown in Table 4a.

Technical Notes

The Monthly Integrated Survey of Selected Industries (MISSI) generates the original series of the Value of Production Index (VaPI), Volume of Production Index (VoPI), Value of Net Sales Index (VaNSI), and Volume of Net Sales Index (VoNSI). These indices provide information on the performance of growth-oriented industries in the manufacturing sector.

This special release features the seasonally adjusted VaPI, VoPI, VaNSI, and VoNSI using X-13 Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) of JDemetra+. The seasonally adjusted series show the trend of value and volume of production and net sales of the manufacturing sector without the effects of seasonal factors.

The decomposition model chosen for the seasonal adjustment for each index is shown below.
