| Abstract: | Data from the IRI/CIMS Annual R&D Survey for fiscal year 1998 confirms continuation of the recent upward trend in both the New Sales Ratio and R&D intensity that was first reported last year. The increase in the New Sales Ratio and the increase in R&D intensity the last 3 years (1996-1998) reverses an earlier downward trend in these 2 metrics during the previous 3 yrs (1993-1995). These trends are only evident if one examines time-series data from common set of companies. To examine the validity of these trends, R&D intensity values were computed over 6 yrs for much larger set of IRI companies (136) from Standard & Poor's Compustat database. |
