Some stakeholders have expressed an interest in computing TFP trends for individual distributors using the available data. The attached document presents a procedure that interested parties can use to construct TFP trends for individual distributors using the information in PEG’s workpapers. ____________________ Larry Kaufmann Senior Advisor Pacific Economics Group 22 East Mifflin, Suite 302 Madison, WI 53705 Phone 608 257-1522 x30 Fax 608 257-1540 Cell 608 443-9813
