Note: Earnings are wage and salary income. Shaded areas denote recessions. CPS ASEC changed its methodology for data years 2013 and 2014; in this graph, the data for 2013 are an average of the new and old series.
To account for the redesign of the CPS ASEC survey, when the difference between the original data for 2013 and the redesigned data for 2013 is small in magnitude (less than a 1 percent difference) and statistically insignificantly different, data for 2013 is an average of the original and redesigned data. When the difference between them is relatively large in magnitude (1 percent or greater) or statistically significantly different, we display a break in the series and impute the ratio between them to historical data.
