Text Box: Description of Monthly Sector Charts

Payments data from corporate excise tax and withholding programs is compiled monthly, for distribution to parties in the Department of Revenue and related economic and legislative agencies.  The chief purpose of the Monthly Sector Charts is to provide up-to-date information about revenues coming into the State of Oregon.  The payments data for each program is grouped by NAICS supersector (described below) and usually delivered by the second week following the reference month.

Payments are aggregated over the previous 12 months to remove seasonality and smooth the series.  For example, data for May 2005 includes all corporate excise tax payments or withholding payments from June 1, 2004 to May 31, 2005.

Corporate excise tax payments include prepayments, payments and credits from the corporate excise, income and multi-state tax programs.  Withholding payments are prepayments, payments and credits from the withholding tax program.

Major sectors in the state of Oregon are indexed to provide a relative comparison of corporate tax and withholding payments by industry.  Sectors indexed in this way are Construction, Manufacturing, Wholesale Trade, Retail Trade, Information, Finance and Insurance, and Management of Companies.

About NAICS

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is the system for classifying business establishments used by most statistical agencies in the United States. In NAICS, economic units that use like processes to produce goods or services are grouped together.

Each establishment under NAICS is given a six-digit NAICS code based on its primary activity.  Generally this is the activity that generates at least 50% of the establishment’s revenue.  Unclassified establishments are given the code “999999”.  

Sector charts are aggregated by the two-digit NAICS “supersectors” listed below.
