TREND REVISIONS
Trend estimates are likely to be revised when new seasonally adjusted estimates become available. For further information, see Explanatory Notes, paragraphs 11 and 12.
The graph below presents the effect of two possible scenarios on the previous trend estimates.
1 | The January 2006 seasonally adjusted estimate of total vehicle sales is higher than the December 2005 seasonally adjusted estimate by 3.6%. |
2 | The January 2006 seasonally adjusted estimate of total vehicle sales is lower than the December 2005 seasonally adjusted estimate by 3.6%. |
The percentage change of 3.6% was chosen because the average absolute percentage change over the last 10 years has been 3.6%.
