Note: Detail may not add to total because of rounding. See table 10 for estimated measures of sampling variability (coefficients of variation). Percent columns represent percent of total operating expenses. Data on expenses include central administrative offices and other enterprise support locations such as warehouses, previously known as auxiliaries. Consequently, data presented here on sample-based payroll may not match payroll presented in other economic census reports. Data for NAICS 51 exclude NAICS 513, Broadcasting and Telecommunciations, covered in the Service Annual Survey. For NAICS 514 Information services, data for private libraries represent only establishments with payroll.
