- The extent of counterfeit purchases in the last 12 months
- General information about the people who buy counterfeit items
- Estimated revenues lost by manufacturers due to counterfeiting
- Estimated tax revenues lost by the U.S. government due to the sale of counterfeit goods
- General attitudes and perceptions toward counterfeiting and the laws to curb counterfeiting
