Description topics

Turnover working day adjusted
By clearing the quarterly results for working day effects, quarter-to-quarter developments can be followed more clearly. For example, a turnaround in the increase or decrease in turnover can be determined more quickly than if there were no working day adjustments.
Turnover indices
An index compares the value of a variable (e.g. turnover) in a certain period with the value of the same variable in the base period. The index of this base period is 100.

Turnover is defined as the value of sales of goods and services to third parties, VAT excluded. Turnover includes the main activity as well as secondary activities. Third parties are consumers and enterprises not belonging to (the Dutch part of) the own group of companies.
Turnover year-on-year change
Change in turnover indicates the growth rate with respect to the same month of the previous year as a percentage. Statistics Netherlands calculates this on the basis of non-rounded figures.

Turnover is defined as the value of sales of goods and services to third parties, VAT excluded. Turnover includes the main activity as well as secondary activities. Third parties are consumers and enterprises not belonging to (the Dutch part of) the own group of companies.
Turnover seasonally adjusted
Seasonal adjustment enables direct comparison of consecutive periods by removing the effects of annually recurring seasonal influences, which have been observed in the past. Turning points in developments (growth or decline) can be diagnosed at an earlier stage than without seasonal adjustment.

It should be noted that the calendar adjustment of time series can have effects on the yearly average of the unadjusted index. These differences occur when certain years have a higher number of working days than others, because several holidays fall on a weekend. Since seasonal adjustment also includes the calendar adjustment, this effect on the yearly index average is also visible in the seasonally adjusted data. Eurostat guidelines state that modifications for these differences are only required if the variation between the yearly average of the adjusted and the unadjusted index is more than +/- 2 percentage points.”
