Description
The index of turnover of construction describes monthly development in the turnover of construction companies. The examined variable is domestic turnover, formed of domestic sales subject to value added tax. The data used for calculating the variable are exclusive of value added tax. Indices of turnover of building construction, civil engineering and specialised construction activities are calculated as sub-indices of this index. Apart from the original indices, seasonally adjusted and trend series are also calculated. The calculation is based on estimation of change. Sums by industry are calculated using data from the enterprises for which comparable turnover data are available for both the month being examined and for the corresponding month of the previous year. The sums thus obtained are used to calculate annual changes by industry. The latest index figures may become slightly revised as the volume of data grows and enterprises report changes to their data. Due to supplementations the data will become updated in releases for over twelve months.
