Manufacturers’ Purchases of Goods and Services

The reported data are validated and aggregated. In addition, imputations are made for non-response. But there is no grossing up, and the published figures cover only the covered enterprises (at least 50 employees or yearly turnover of 100 mio. DKK).

Source data

The statistics are survey-based. Approx. 900 enterprises are surveyed, selected as all enterprises in manufacturing and mining and quarrying, having at least 50 employees or yearly turnover of 100 mio. DKK. These enterprises account for 75-80 per cent of total turnover in manufacturing and mining and quarrying.

Frequency of data collection

Annual.

Data collection

Data collection is conducted by means of electronic upload of an excel-file through Virk.dk. Instructions for respondents are available at Statistics Denmark's information pages for reporters (in Danish only).

Data validation

The reported data are validated and edited, mainly through systematic comparison to reports from the same enterprise in the previous period. Data validation also includes comparison to data from the Accounts Statistics for the same enterprise.

Data compilation

Data from the previous year are imputed for enterprises which have not responded by the time of publication. There is no grossing up procedure. Through combining data with those from the Accounts Statistics, purchases are calculated as shares of turnover.

Adjustment

No corrections.
