The statistics are used to compile weightings in the Consumer Price Index and for calculation of the private consumption in the National Accounts. The statistics were first compiled in 1897 and annually since 1994., Statistical presentation, The Household budget survey is an annual statement of the detailed private consumption at household level for private households in Denmark. The survey covers private households in Denmark. The household budget survey provides a detailed breakdown of consumption. In the most detailed breakdown, consumption is divided into approx. 1,200 different consumption types., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The survey is based on a sample where the number of households accounts for about 2,200 out of Denmark's total of approximately 2.8 million households. , The survey included data from three different data sources: Accounting booklets, CAPI interviews and data from registers. In this way the sample can give results which are good approximations for all private households. The data from the 3 different sources are validated. We are constantly looking at how we can improve and compile the statistic in a more efficient way., Data is collected annually from approximately 1,100 households and the sample for one years household budget survey is based on the sample from two years. All expenses, income, etc. are converted to the price and volume level of the end year., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, In addition to the general public the Household Budget Survey has a wide application. Internally in Statistics Denmark during the compilation of national accounts and price indexation. Public authorities' planning and feasibility studies, etc. Internationally, where especially EUROSTAT is very active in order to establish comparable figures between countries.

This creates uncertainty, not least for detailed consumer groups. For total consumption, this means that there is an uncertainty margin of +/- 1.8 per cent. while that for that for bread is 2 per cent. and 24 per cent. for a rarely purchased item such as offal. There is underreporting in a number of areas such as alcohol, tobacco, prostitution and undeclared work. The uncertainty is greater when data is based on accounting rather than interviews, and it will be greater if one looks at smaller subgroups of households., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published approximately12 months after the end of the reference year. The statistics are usually published according to the time announced. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The Household Budget Survey is carried out in accordance with guidelines from the European Statistical Office, Eurostat. Comparable figures are published by Eurostat. Since 1994, the survey has been methodologically redesigned, so it is now conducted annually using the same method and on a comparable basis., Data for the period 2014 to 2022 were based on a two-year sample and the ECOICOP nomenclature. To ensure comparability over time, data for 1994 to 2013 were recalculated according to this nomenclature in both current and constant prices., From 2023, COICOP2018 has been implemented in the Household Budget Survey as the survey has become subject to a regulation. Therefore, data for 2015–2022 have been recalculated in current and constant prices according to COICOP2018 to ensure continuity., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The Danish Household Budget Survey is published in a Danish press release, at the same time as the tables are updated in the StatBank.

The statistics is published monthly and is primarily used as short term indicator for private consumption as well as the general business cycle movement., Statistical presentation, Retail trade indices are published for 42 industries and for three commodity groups: food and other everyday commodities, clothing etc., and other commodities. Value and volume indices are produced. The volume index is made for the commodity groups and special industry aggregates for Eurostat. The statistics are based on survey data from all large retail trade enterprises and a sample of the remaining retail trade enterprises, which are requested to submit information about their turnover each month. Seasonal adjustment is performed of the three main commodity groups and the total., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The survey is based on a sample of Danish retail trade enterprises. The sample includes approximately 2,200 enterprises, and at the time of the first publication, the figures for a month are based on responses from approximately 1.800 of these enterprises for the initial publication. , The sample consist of 42 subgroups and enterprises are sampled based on their share of the yearly turnover for the given subgroup. The companies are ranked from largest to smallest and the companies, whose rank constitutes the bottom 10 pct. of turnover for their subgroup when summed, are never selected to participate. The companies whose rank lies between 11 and 49 pct. of the subgroup’s yearly summed turnover, are randomly selected. Lastly, the larger firms whose turnover altogether lies in the top 50 pct. of the yearly turnover for their subgroup are always included in the sample. The companies are selected based on VAT-declarations to the Danish tax administration. , Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Many users who monitor the current business trends take an interest in the published statistics of retail trade. The demand for the statistics is broadly based in trade associations, the bank and finance sector, politicians, public and private institutions, researchers, enterprises, news media and Eurostat. The statistics provide input to the quarterly national accounts statistics and to Eurostat's pan-European statistics. The users view the retail trade index as an important short term indicator, and it often gets a lot of attention in the media and amongst other professional users. , Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The overall uncertainty of the total retail trade index is estimated to be less than 1 per cent. On commodity group level, the uncertainty of the group Food and other convenience goods is about the same, whereas for Clothing etc. it can be up to 3 per cent and for other consumer goods up to 2 per cent., The accuracy of the monthly growth rate is generally very high. For the total index, the uncertainty is estimated to be maximum 0.2 percentage points, while it can be a little higher on commodity group level., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, Indices on the main commodity groups are published already 22-28 days after the end of the month. This is rather quick for statistics based on a survey such as this. One month later the indices on the most detailed industry level are published. The punctuality is very high with delays happening very rarely. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, These statistics have been compiled since 1939, but they are not suited for long term time series analysis because of structural changes in the retail trade sector.

The statistics are a part of a cross-public cooperation, intended to ensure coherent documentation of important areas of municipal service, as well as to increase the comparability of the services provided in the different municipalities. The statistics are used to determine impact targets, frameworks and results requirements for key management initiatives and are comparable from 2008 onwards. Statistics Denmark is responsible for the composition and publication of the statistics., Statistical presentation, The statistic for 2025 covers data from the first 6 months of 2025. The statistic is an annual survey including a number of national impact- and background indicators which document and describe the quality of the municipal effort at the elderly area. The indicators consist of referral and provided home care, home nursing, nursing homes, exercise services, rehabilitation and preventative home visits. Primarily, the indicators are targeted at the elderly area, however home care, exercise services, home nursing as well as nursing homes also include data for citizens under 67 years., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Before publishing data from the municipalities' EOJ system (electronic care journal), tables and figures are developed, which all municipalities are asked to approve. After the approval, Statistics Denmark detects for data errors as missing numbers, abnormal values and etc., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The authorities and public institutions and the population use the indicators for analysis, research, debate, etc. The focus is to ensure more valid documentation at the elderly area. This is achieved by retrieving the information directly from the municipalities' care systems (EOJ), which is constantly updated as a part of the municipalities' case management., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The municipalities receive control tables, which they are asked to approve. Only approved information is included in the statistics. In the absence of approvals, previous years' information is included in the national totals and averages. For the publication for the first 6 months 2025, between 97 and 98 municipalities are included, depending on the indicator. Lack of approval may be due to the municipality's registration practices, which determine which data is reported, and system or supplier changes, where the reported data may be flawed. There are varying registration practices between municipalities in several areas, which can lead to distortions., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published as pre-advertised. The statistics are released approximately 6 months after the reference period has ended. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistics are generally comparable over time, but there are minor data breaks. The municipalities' change of EOJ provider every five years can affect certain indicators. As of October 1, 2023, new reporting requirements for food service and supplier types resulted in a data break in the statistics on designated home care. Therefore, the figures for 2023 should be compared with previous years with reservations. For hospital usage, there has been no adjustment for the severity of diseases, which affects the comparability between municipalities., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistics are published in a , Danish press release, .

It is used, among other things, for regulation of building contracts, and for following the economic conjuncture in the construction industry. The statistics have been compiled in various forms since 1959, but in its current form the indices for earth work, asphalt work, concrete structures, and iron structures are comparable from 1976 and onwards. The index for roads is comparable from 1996 and onwards., Statistical presentation, The Construction cost indices for civil engineering projects shows trends in prices for work performed by different contractors in civil engineering projects: Earth work, asphalt work, concrete structures, iron structures, operating index, and sub-indices for Freight transport by road, and Equipment and machinery. Trends in costs for construction of roads are also monitored based on a weighing of indices for earthwork, asphalt work, concrete structures and iron structures., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The indices are calculated on the basis of information from the Standardised index of average earnings, Price index for domestic supply, the Producer price index for services, and Net price index., For all indices, sub-indices for labor costs and main cost groups are calculated. These sub-indices are weighed together to form the main indices. The weights reflect the shares of labor costs, material costs and equipment costs of the total costs of performing civil-engineering projects. The weights are based on an analysis of actual, completed civil engineering projects., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The purpose of the Construction cost indices for civil engineering projects is to reflect the development in the costs of civil-engineering projects. It is mainly used for regulation of building contracts. The indices are utilized primarily by construction organizations, contractors, building owners, craftsmen, lawyers and public authorities., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, Overall the statistics are assessed to be representative for the general trends in costs of civil engineering projects in Denmark. The weight basis is based on an analysis of actual civil engineering projects. Changes in the typical use of materials, unusual price developments etc. may therefore affect the index' accuracy. The weight basis was last updated in 2025 with 2021 as reference period and is deemed representative for typical civil engineering work., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published quarterly approximately 70 days after the end of the quarter, i.e. at the beginning of March (4th quarter), June (1st quarter), September (2nd quarter) and December (3rd quarter).

The statistics are useful in the field of social sciences and form the basis for effective policymaking in areas that affect the economic situation of the households. Statistics Denmark has published statistics on income since 1905 and has coherent time series going back to the 1980’s., Statistical presentation, The income statistics are based on a full-population register. It contains information on annual incomes at both the personal- and family level as well as data on the distribution of income. The income is available both pre- and post taxes and can be split into subcategories such as primary income, transfers, property income and taxes. In the income statistics the population is divided into groups by age, socio-economic status, gender, municipalities (NUTS-3), type of family and into income intervals., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data is collected and published yearly. The primary source is administrative data from the Danish tax authorities. Using secondary sources from the municipalities and unemployment funds the incomes are subdivided into more detailed types of income. Finally other registers in Statistics Denmark, such as the population register, provide background information., In case of inconsistencies between data sources on the total income amounts, the data are fitted to match the level of the tax authorities, which are assumed to be correct., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The primary users of the income statistics are ministries, municipalities, research institutes and the media. An annual meeting with some of the users of the main welfare statistics is held in Statistics Denmark. On a daily basis users call with questions related to the statistics or comment on our publications on social media. Through these interactions with the users we continually assess the need for improvements of the statistics., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The quality is in general considered to be very good for the income types included in the statistics as data have been validated by the tax authorities. Undeclared incomes, winnings in lotteries etc. may result in a mismatch between actual and registered income., As the income statistics are based on full-population registers, there are no sampling errors., In 2024 data is extracted in August. Thus revisions after this date will not be taken into account in the income statistics., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, Most tables on income statistics are published in September, nine months after the end of the income reference year along with the annual newsletter.

Metode efter serviceeftersyn 2022-2023 (pdf) (in Danish only), The purpose of the standardised index of average earnings is to estimate the developments in pay levels for employees in Denmark, adjusted to the extent possible for changes in the labour market’s occupational composition, e.g. shifts of employees between industries and/or occupation. The statistics are used for e.g. monitoring of business cycles, regulation of contracts, analyses of developments in pay levels as well as input in the calculation of the National Accounts., The statistics have been prepared since 2018 with data back to the first quarter of 2016. A revised index and time series are published in May 2023 with data back from 2016., In parallel, Statistics Denmark is calculating the implicit index of average earnings. Unlike the standardised index, the implicit index of average earnings does not take changes in the occupational composition into account., Statistical presentation, The standardised index of average earnings is a quarterly estimate of the developments in pay levels for employees in Denmark, adjusted to the extent possible for changes in the occupational composition, e.g. shifts of employees between industries and/or occupation. The statistics show the development in the average hourly earnings for employees by sector, industry (DB07) and main occupation (DISCO-08). Each quarter, an index value and an annual increase are published., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data for these statistics are collected quarterly. For the public sector all payroll information are collected while data are collected via a sample from the private sector. The collected data is validated at an aggregate level for key enterprises (only in the private sector) and at an individual level through a combination of validation rules for the hourly earnings for the individual employment relationship. The hourly earnings are assessed based on sector, industry, main occupation and type of employment. Once data has been validated, base index is calculated for each homogeneous group, which afterwards is aggregated to sub- and total indices at sector, industry or main occupation level., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, These statistics are relevant for private enterprises and organisations, as well as ministries and other public institutions for analysis, contractual regulation etc. The statistical data are also used in other areas within Statistics Denmark, e.g the calculation of the Danish National Accounts., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The accuracy of these statistics are higher for employees in the public sector than in the private sector. The reason for this is that the statistics for employees in the public sector (more or less) consists of all payroll information, while the statistics for employees in the public sector is based on a sample of enterprises. The accuracy of the statistics for the private sector is therefore affected by sampling uncertainty, completeness of the reported information and non-response. The impact on the indices are unknown., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, These statistics are published two months after the end of the reference period. The statistics are released typically without delay according to scheduled dates of publication. , In February 2022, the statistics were paused and a comprehensive service review was initiated. As a result, the method for calculating standardized index of average earnings was revised. This publication therefore contains revised index values and annual increases for the entire period from the first quarter of 2016 until the first quarter of 2023. This means that the series contains revised values from the first quarter of 2016 until the third quarter of 2021 as well as previously unpublished values from the fourth quarter of 2021 until the first quarter of 2023., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The standardised index of average earnings was first published in December 2018 with a time series starting in the first quarter of 2016. The standardised index of average earnings utilize the same data as the implicit index of average earnings, which however has a different purpose and is therefore calculated using a different method. There exist a few sets of statistics abroad that are partly comparable with the standardised index of average earnings. , Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published quarterly in a Danish press release, at the same time as the tables are updated in the StatBank.

The reported data undergo extensive validation, focusing on a number of high-priority variables, particularly R&D expenditure and R&D full-time equivalents. Validation is performed at both the macro and micro level., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, There is a general political objective of increasing the share of GDP, which is applied for research and development, and in the light of this objective, there is great interest in compiling statistics on research and development. The main users are Ministries, public authorities, business organisations, researchers, private business enterprises and the media. In addition, the European Commission (The statistical office Eurostat) and the OECD are important users. Data are available for purposes of research., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, They are based on a complete census, of the expected research-active institutions, of approximately 650 public institutions, with a response rate close to 100 percent. The large dataset undergoes extensive validation, and except for a single question, the extent of imputation for missing values is relatively limited. Imputation may, for example, involve inserting calculated values from other institutions’ reports in place of missing information., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, National release is done 1 year after the end of the reference period. It is the aim to publish preliminary figures 1 year after the end of the reference period. Final figures are published 1 year after the preliminary figures. Transmission of data to Eurostat follows rules laid down in the relevant legal act. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, Comparable figures are available for 1997–2006, when the statistics were compiled by the Centre for Research Analysis, and from 2007 onwards. In the 2007 statistics, some changes were made to the accounting principles compared with earlier compilations, and between 2006 and 2007 a number of structural changes affected a large number of research institutions. This means that the data in the new survey are only partially comparable with previous surveys., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published yearly in a Danish press release, at the same time as the tables are updated in the StatBank.
