The purpose of these programs is to process input, calculate output and to keep the entity processes up-to-date.

A third way to calculate national output is to focus on income.

The way this variable is used is in the equation that calculates industrial output.

Therefore, by synchronizing fluid volume changes with heartbeat, the change in impedance can be used to calculate stroke volume, cardiac output, and systemic vascular resistance.

The argument here is that, in calculating net output, costs and results are only assessed in price terms.

While "product" is used to calculate output for overall productivity, the higher "income" calculation determines corporate productivity.

It is particularly important because the Federal Government does not calculate output by state, as it does for the nation as a whole with the gross national product.

Some economists have been skeptical about the corporate profit survey compiled by the Finance Ministry, which contains the figures on company spending that are used to calculate output.

Rather, when the Government calculates output, it factors out inflation, to make the output figure more representative of the quantity of goods and services produced in the economy.

Adopting a new method of calculating output, the government revised third-quarter growth to an annual 0.2 percent from a previous 0.3 percent.
