a In the case
of the seasonally adjusted volume index of industrial production, the impact of
different number of working days in a month and seasonally recurring factors
has been eliminated. It is calculated only in comparison with the previous
period.
b In the case
of the working-day adjusted volume index of industrial production, the impact
of different number of working days in a month has been eliminated. It is
calculated only in comparison with the corresponding period of the previous
year.
The statistics are based on the questionnaires
“Industry”, the submission date of which was 17.12.2017, and “Energy
production, sales and fuel consumption”, the submission date of which was
10.12.2017. Statistics Estonia published the monthly overview in 11 working days.
