Methodological explanation for the news release:


Industry turnover indices


Sources and methods of data collection
Data for turnover in industry are collected by statistical questionnaire: "Monthly survey for turnover in industry" (IND.2) that is available to the reporting units on the website of the SSO (www.stat.gov.mk) through the system for electronic data collection (e-Stat).The reporting units are obliged to submit the data based on the accounting records within a specified time frame, in accordance with the Programme for Statistical Surveys in the Republic of Macedonia for the particular year.

Observation units
Reporting units are the enterprises which in the Register of Business Entities are registered in industry and minning in sectors B - Mining and quarrying and C - Manufacturing of the National Classification of Activities - NKD Rev.2, as well as enterprises registered in another activity (agriculture, construction, trade etc.), which besides their main activity are also engaged in industrial activity. Reporting units are also local units by kind of activity at the municipal level.

Calculation method
The indices of turnover in industry for different levels of the National Classification of Activities - NKD Rev.2 (total, main industrial groupings, sections, divisions, groups of products) are calculated as three types of indices: indices of turnover in industry, total, indices of turnover in industry on domestic market and indices of turnover in the industry on non-domestic markets. For calculation the indices, Laspeyres formula is used.
For calculation the weights for the turnover in the industry, total, we use the value of the turnover from the final accounts of the enterprises for 2015, by kind of activity, aggregated at the level of groups of products, i.e. to three digits of NKD Rev.2. For calculation the weights for the turnover in the industry on non-domestic markets we use the value of the turnover of the enterprises realized from the export of their own production, by kind of activity, aggregated at the level of groups of products, i.e. to three digits of NKD Rev.2, according to the structure of the value of the export from the "External Trade, 2015". The weights for the turnover in the industry on domestic market are performed as a difference from the weights of the turnover in the industry, total and the weights for the turnover in the industry on non-domestic markets. The weights are changed every five years, and 2015 is used as a base year.

Classifications
Classifications used for the Monthly Report on Turnover in Industry and for publishing of the results are: the National Classification of Activities (Official Gazette of the Republic of Macedonia No. 147/2013) and the National Nomenclature of Industrial Products 2008 (Official Gazette of the Republic of Macedonia No.83/2014).

Recommendations
The Monthly Report on Turnover in Industry is based on the EUROSTAT recommendations in the Methodology of Short-Term Business Statistics, 2006, and is harmonized with Council Regulation (EC) No.1165/98 concerning short-term statistics.
