Research & Development Growth Trends
Research & Development Growth Trends report is published annually, giving information on publicly owned corporations that spend on R&D. The study is ordered by U.S. Department of Commerce SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) and alphabetically by company name within each SIC. Each company's historical information includes: R&D spending for each of the last five calendar years expressed in constant 1990 dollars, the percent of R&D the company expended in relation to the total spending by all companies with the same SIC, inflation adjusted sales for each of the last five years and the percent share of sales over the SIC. The average annual percent change over the five year period in spending, sales and shares are also displayed. Measures of profitability and effectiveness of the company's R&D expenditures are shown along with What If scenarios and Management By Objective values for the next calendar year.
