Concurrent Seasonal Adjustment with Census X-11
Concurrent Seasonal Adjustment with Census X-11
Introduction
The development of the Census Method II seasonal adjustment procedure in the 1950's and 1960's, culminating in the X- 11 variant in 1967, represented a major breakthrough in the practice of seasonal adjustment. The use of computers for seasonal adjustment made the adjustment of large numbers of series practical. Census X-II gained widespread acceptance as a seasonal adjustment method, and it is now in use throughout the world in both government and private industry.
