RETAIL TRADE TURNOVER, APRIL 2013


The first part of the table shows indices of the total turnover of business entities, registered by their prevailing activities into division 47 of the NKD 2007 (retailers).

The second part of the table shows indices of the turnover generated from the retail trade activity of all business entities engaged in retailing, irrespective of their prevailing activity.

The presentation and interpretation of the turnover indices are in line with those prescribed in the Short-Term Business Statistics Regulation (EC) No. 1165/98. Data compared to those of the previous month (the so-called monthly comparison) are seasonally adjusted. Data compared to those of the same month of a previous year (so-called annual comparison) are working-day adjusted.

In order to sustain the consistency and continuity with previously released data, indices continue to be presented as gross, unadjusted indices.

From January 2013, the base year in relation to which data on the retail trade are presented in basic terms has been changed from 2005 to 2010.

Detailed and final results on retail trade turnover in 2013 will be published in regular first releases according to the Calendar of Statistical Data Issues 2013.
