Data Processing

Data Editing
A Control form was introduced to find out the profit or loss and value added of each establishment. This form was filled by the supervisor of the Statistical Office (SO) immediately after completing the interview of the establishment. If any inconsistencies were found during this phase, enumerators have to re-visit the establishment for verification.

Coding was done in ECSS of CBS. NSIC and CPC coding schemes were used. Altogether, 2 Statistical officer, 1 Computer Officer and 2 Statistical Assistants were involved in the coding and checking of the price of each fuel, raw material and product under the direct supervision of Director of the Establishment Census and Suvey Section.

During Data entry, many range checks were introduced to minimize range errors. Some cross checks were used to control errors relating to the universe and pre-question of the entry variable during data entry. One big batch edit file with many edit commands were run and verify the observed missing or overvalued or undervalued data mostly by contacting the respondent of the establishment by telephone.


After entering and editing data in CSPro data entry application, frequencies and percentage distribution of the principal indicators like total number of establishment, total number of persons engaged, total number of employees, value of input, value of output, value added by NSIC, ecological belts, development regions, districts were tabulated and compared with that of previous census. Further,average output, value added, number of persons engaged, number of employees and fixed asset per establishment a was calculated to discuss final report of the census in the technical committee. The final results were published after the approval the committee.
Other Processing
During data entry in CSPro application, necessary checks and controls was administered for each section. Data were processed by NSIC and establishments separately. Several copies of simplified correspondence tables of NSIC Rev. 4 and CPC 2.0 were prepared and used by every data editor, supervisor of the editors and data entry operators. Six (6) computers were used for data entry which was done at CBS. SPSS Version 19 was used to compile and analyze the data.

Data Appraisal

Data Appraisal
CME 2011-12 data appraisal may be categorized by 3 stages: Listing, data collection, data entry and processing. A technical committee headed by the Director General of CBS was formed to supervise, suggest, control and review the overall process of the census from questionnaire design to data dissemination.

A control form was used to verify establishment lebel input-output ratio as well as profit or loss status of the establishment at data collection stage. The data collection work was done only by the staff of CBS and its field offices. They were trained by the census officials of CBS worked in the head office. Statistical officers of branch offices were considered as supervisor of the census.

To establish consistency between the CPC of data recorded in section 7, 8 of the questionnaire and NSIC of section 3, grouping of raw materials and products was made by CPC to make one to one correspondence with NSIC.
