This adjustment is made to convert the values to an approximation of the producers' value of exported goods. Current adjustment factors are based on data for 1989 which are published in Exports from Manufacturing establishments, AR89-1, appendix B. The derived adjustment factor for this report is 0.9130. 4/ Source: Bureau of the Census report IM 145, U.S. Imports for Consumption. 5/ Represents c.i.f.
