Capacity Utilization Manufacturing is an economic indicator measured in Percent of Capacity. It covers the period from Thursday, April 18, 1974, to Friday, March 1, 2024, and is updated monthly. Please note, for a given industry, the capacity utilization rate is equal to an output index divided by a capacity index. The Federal Reserve Board's capacity indexes attempt to capture the concept of sustainable maximum output-the greatest level of output a plant can maintain within the framework of a realistic work schedule, after factoring in normal downtime and assuming sufficient availability of inputs to operate the capital in place. For more information, see the explanatory notes (https://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/g17/About.htm) issued by the Board of Governors. For recent updates, see the announcements (https://www.federalreserve.gov/feeds/g17.html) issued by the Board of Governors Source Code: CAPUTL.GMF.S Please view all Manufacturing indicators for more information or continue to All Top Economic Indicators.
