NOTES ON METHODOLOGY Data
in this Release are based on the Monthly Report on Retail Trade (report form
TRG-1). This survey has been carried out since 1 January 1998. Method of data collection Methodology
for this survey is based on the Eurostat recommendations. Reporting units are
enterprises/trade companies classified by their prevailing activity into
retail trade or sale, maintenance and repair of motor vehicles (according to
the NCEA in division 50 and groups 52.1. - 52.6). Selected enterprises/trade
companies engaged in other activities, but executing the above mentioned
ones, are also included. Persons employed in crafts and trades are excluded. Coverage The survey is carried out by a sampling method. The
evaluation of the whole group is based on the results obtained through
samples. The sample covers all big and medium-sized enterprises, while small
enterprises/trade companies are selected by random sample method. The
Register of Business Entities of the Central Bureau of Statistics,
supplemented with information in data bases of the Institute for Payment
Transactions and the Tax Administration Office of the Ministry of Finances of
the Republic of Croatia (as per last available situation) is used as s
sampling framework. In the year 2001 the sampling framework has been
supplemented with data of the Institute for Payment Transactions with
situation as at the end of 1999 and the Tax Administration Office with
situation as at the end of 1999. At the same time, new sample units have been
selected and new methods of sample theory were implemented. As a consequence,
results are not entirely comparable with the previous series, but it is not
so observable in this survey, since results are presented in the form of
indices, providing that questions in the questionnaire ensure that chain
indices are always correct. Due to the lack of registers of high quality, the
Central Bureau of Statistics has done
some additional work on the sampling framework. The quality of results
obtained by this survey depends strictly on the updating of registers, which
represent the framework for the selection of the sample. The sample is
divided into strata according to the prevailing activitiy and the size of the
enterprise/trade company. Enterprises/trade
companies are divided by prevailing activity on the basis of the National
Classification of Economic Activities, NCEA (Narodne novine, official gazette
of the Republic of Croatia, Nos. 3/97 and 7/97). By size, they are divided
into small, medium-size and big ones. When dividing enterprises/trade
companies by size, the following criteria must be fulfilled: the balance
after subtracting the loss presented in the fixed assets, income in 12 months
before making up the balance and the annual average of persons in employment. Definitions Turnover is a total value of all goods
sold and services provided on the market in a month, irrespective of whether
paid up or not. It also includes the value added tax. Tables 1 and 2 show
indices of total turnover realised by enterprises/trade companies in all the
activities they are engaged in, as well as turnover indices realised through
retail trade activities. Data on total turnover and on retail trade turnover
have been gained from enterprises/trade companies which are classified by
their prevailing activity into retail trade or sale, maintenance and repair
of motor vehicles. Other
enterprises/trade companies have presented only retail trade turnover. By the
same principle used to present turnover, table 3 includes indices of total
number of persons employed in retail trade. Data on
the retail trade turnover are presented in two ways: either according to the
prevailing activity in which business entities are classified (tables 1. and
2.) or according to the trade branches (table 4.). Trade branches are the
actual assortment of sale in the retail trade, where goods are also
classified according to the National Classification of Economic Activities. Number of employed
persons includes: paid workers;
owners, co-owners and unpaid family members who work in the enterprise;
persons who work out of the premises of their original enterprise (e.g. sales
agents, couriers, maintenance and repair teams); persons absent for a short
period of time (e.g. because of illness, maternity leave, paid or special
leave); persons who are on strike; short-time workers; workers who work at
home; seasonal workers, trainees. Workers absent for indefinite period of
time, persons working in the respective enterprise but sent by another
enterprise (e.g. persons who carry out maintenance or repairs in an
enterprise on behalf of another enterprise) are not included; persons
completing their military service. Stocks in retail trade are presented
with the situation as at the end of a month, by selling price with VAT
included. Results
are shown in the form of nominal and real indices. Real indices are
calculated by deflating nominal indices by price index in retail trade,
excluding the electricity price. Turnover
indices for the year 2001 based on the previous year have been changed due to
the correction of data for the years 1998 - 2000 on the basis of the data
given in the Quarterly Report of Distributive Trade for Legal Entities (TRG-2). Abbreviations n.e.c. not elsewhere classified NCEA National Classification of Economic
