Indices (1995=100)
Every month retail trade is surveyed by Statistics Netherlands.
The indicators (monthly indices), used by government, trade and
industry organisations, companies and others, chiefly relate to sales
developments, although price and volume indices are also published for
most (sub)classes.
Sales
Total receipts from sales of goods and services rendered, cash and on
account, after deduction of discounts, returned items and repaid
deposits. Receipts from secondary activities are included in these
sales. Retail trade sales include VAT.
Prices
Prices are based on the consumer price index (CPI), weighted for the
shares of the groups of items per branch. These shares are derived from
the yearly retail trade statistics.
Volume
Sales are adjusted for price fluctuations.
% Mutation
Percentage changes in relation to the same period of the previous year
are calculated on the basis of index figures which are not rounded off.
