get_intermediateR Documentation

Looking Up the Level of Intermediate Goods Production

Description

Calculates and returns the level (proportion) of intermediate goods production in an industry based on product descriptions.

Usage

get_intermediate(sourcevar, origin)

Arguments

sourcevar

An input character vector of industry codes to look up.

origin

A string indicating one of the following industry/product classifications: "HS0" (1988/92), "HS1" (1996), "HS2" (2002), "HS3" (2007), "HS4" (2012), "HS5" (2017), "HS6" (2022), "HS" (combined), "SITC1" (1950), "SITC2" (1974), "SITC3" (1985), "SITC4" (2006), "NAICS2002", "NAICS2007", "NAICS2012", "NAICS2017", "ISIC2" (1968), "ISIC3" (1989), "ISIC4" (2008), "BEC4" (2016).

Value

Uses keywords ("part(s)", "intermediate", and "component") to identify intermediate-goods producing industries (at the most disaggregated level in the description data), and then calculates and returns the proportion these industries occupy among each input code.

Note

Please include leading zeros in codes (e.g., use HS code 010110 instead of 10110). For BEC4 only, use original codes or add trailing zeroes if necessary (e.g., 7 or 700 instead of 007). Also note that the results may not be informative for broad categories like BEC4.
