NOTES ON METHODOLOGY Data in this Release are based
on the Monthly Report on Retail Trade (Form TRG-1). This survey has been
carried out since 1st 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 taken over from data bases of the
Financial Agency and the Tax Administration Office of the Ministry of Finance
of the Republic of Croatia (as per last available situation) is used as s
sampling framework. In the year 2003 the sampling framework was supplemented
with data of the Financial Agency, with the situation as at the end of 2001
and January - September 2002, and the
Tax Administration Office, with the situation as at the end of 2001. 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 activity 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 (NN, Nos. 3/97 and 7/97). By size, they are divided
into small, medium - sized 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 that 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
(for example, sales agents, couriers, maintenance and repair teams); persons
absent for a short period of time (for example, 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 (for example, 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. Abbreviations
