Concepts
Sales and services of industrial enterprises refers
to income (VAT and excise excluded) received during a reference period through
selling goods and/or providing services by enterprises engaged in mining and
quarrying and manufacturing (sections B and C of EVRK1 Rev. 2).
Industrial production refers to the value (VAT
and excise excluded) of the sales of goods manufactured or manufacturing work
carried out by industrial enterprises (sections B–E of EVRK Rev. 2). For the
calculation of changes in industrial production, a producer price index is
used.
