Users' manual of programme BENCH to benchmark, interpolate and calendarize time series data on microcomputer / by Pierre A. Cholette.: CS11-614/90-8E-PDF

"This document presents a benchmarking and interpolation programme for socio-economic time series. Benchmarking is the process of combining data, which pertain to a same given variable, but are observed at different frequencies (e.g. annual versus monthly). Classical benchmarking, which adjusts monthly data so that their annual sums are equal to annual benchmarks, is a particular case. interpolation consists of obtaining more frequent estimates (e.g. monthly) from less frequent data (e.g. annual). The programme can also operate calendarization, that is the conversion of fiscal year data into calendar year values, of fiscal quarter data into calendar quarter values, of aggregates of weekly data into monthly values, etc"--Summary, p. v.
