Annual transactions are converted to seasonally adjusted quarterly transactions by calculating the ratio of the above series to annual data on private domestic investment in entertainment, literary, and artistic originals (a portion of NIPA, Table 1.1.5 Gross Domestic Product, line 12, Private domestic, Nonresidential, Intellectual property products); multiplied by quarterly data on private domestic investment in entertainment, literary, and artistic originals (a portion of line 12, Private domestic, Nonresidential, Intellectual property products).
