This report, which was prepared in conjunction with the 1992 Census of Wholesale Trade, provides data on selected characteristics of merchant wholesalers, including measures of value produced, capital expenditures, depreciable assets, and operating expenses.
Data in this report are based on information collected from a probability sample of merchant wholesalers used to produce monthly national estimates of wholesale sales published in the Monthly Wholesale Trade Survey. A description of the survey methodology, estimating procedures, and concepts is presented in appendix A.
