The questionnaire involves 11 issues, such as production, new orders, export orders, existing orders, finished goods inventory, purchase quantity, import, purchase price, raw material inventory, employee, supplier delivery time, etc.　　For each problem, the diffusion index is calculated, that is, the percentage of the number of respondents to the positive answer plus half the percentage of the answer unchanged. PMI is a composite index, weighted by 5 diffusion Indices (classification indices). The 5 classification indices and their weights are determined by their degree of prior influence on the economy. Include: New order index, weights 30%, production index, weights 25%, employee index, weights 20%, supplier distribution time index, weights 15%stock index of raw materials, weights 10%. PMI is one of the international macroeconomic Monitoring Index system, which plays an important role in the monitoring and forecasting of national economic activities. Usually 50% as the dividing point of economic strength, PMI is higher than 50%, reflecting the economic expansion of the manufacturing sector, less than 50%, reflecting the manufacturing industry recession.
