Producer prices for services

What is your data used for?
Here, producers report prices for services in the first stage of distribution – that is, sales prices to other companies, excluding VAT. Your report is necessary to illustrate price developments for goods and to calculate the price index. The statistics are used in the national accounts as a business cycle indicator and for contract adjustments in the business sector.
