Data Descriptions
Wisconsin Indicators
| Variable | Description |
Source |
|---|---|---|
| Unemployment | All persons who had no employment during the reference week, were available for work (except for temporary illness), and had made specific efforts to find employment some time during the 4 week-period ending with the reference week. Persons who were waiting to be recalled to a job from which they had been laid off need not have been looking for work to be classified as unemployed. | Bureau of Labor Statistics |
| Employment |
All persons who, during the reference week (which is the week including the twelfth day of the month), either (a) did any work as paid employees, worked in their own business or profession or on their own farm, or worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers in an enterprise operated by a member of their family, or (b) were not working but who had jobs from which they were temporarily absent. Each employed person is counted only once, even if he or she holds more than one job. | Bureau of Labor Statistics |
| Labor Force |
All persons in the civilian noninstitutional population classified as either employed or unemployed. The civilian noninstitutional population consists of persons 16 years of age and older residing in the 50 states and the District of Columbia, who are not inmates of institutions (e.g., penal and mental facilities, homes for the aged), and who are not on active duty in the Armed Forces. | Bureau of Labor Statistics |
| Unemployment Rate |
The ratio of the number of unemployed persons to the number of persons in the civilian labor force, expressed as a percent. |
Bureau of Labor Statistics |
| Total Wage and Salary Disbursements | Wage and salary disbursements consisting of: the monetary remuneration of employees, including the salaries of corporate officers, commissions, tips, bonuses, and severance pay; employee gains from exercising nonqualified stock options; distributions from nonqualified deferred compensation plans; an imputation for pay-in-kind (such as the meals furnished to the employees of restaurants). | Bureau of Economic Analysis |
| Gross State Product | The total of all final goods and services produced within the borders of governmental units in the United States. | Bureau of Economic Analysis |
| Personal Income | The income received by persons from participation in production, from government and business transfer payments, and from government interest. BEA estimates personal income largely from administrative data sources. | Bureau of Economic Analysis |
| Philadelphia FED Coincident Index | The coincident indexes combine four state-level indicators to summarize current economic conditions in a single statistic. The four state-level variables in each coincident index are nonfarm payroll employment, average hours worked in manufacturing, the unemployment rate, and wage and salary disbursements deflated by the consumer price index (U.S. city average). The trend for each state’s index is set to the trend of its gross domestic product (GDP), so long-term growth in the state’s index matches long-term growth in its GDP. | Philadelphia FED |
| Philadelphia FED Leading Index | The leading index for each state predicts the six-month growth rate of the state's coincident index. In addition to the coincident index, the models include other variables that lead the economy: state-level housing permits (1 to 4 units), state initial unemployment insurance claims, delivery times from the Institute for Supply Management (ISM) manufacturing survey, and the interest rate spread between the 10-year Treasury bond and the 3-month Treasury bill. | Philadelphia FED |
