Methodological Information Definitions The Industrial Output Prices
Index is a monthly index and is the combination of the Industrial Output
Prices Index for the domestic market and the Industrial Output Prices Index
for the non domestic market. The prices collected for
products sold in the domestic market are basic selling prices excluding VAT,
discounts, commissions and excise duties. Moreover, the prices collected for
products sold in the non domestic market are quoted FOB (free on board). The prices collected refer
mainly to transactions between the enterprises that produce and sell the
products chosen for the compilation of the Industrial Output Prices Index and
the enterprises that buy these products, regardless of whether those products
are to be used as raw materials or as merchandise. Scope Data collection The collection of data for the
sectors of mining and quarrying, manufacturing and materials recovery is
conducted by the Statistical Service by telephone enquiries and e-mail. Data
is collected after the first Thursday of each month from a sample of
enterprises. The Electricity Authority of Cyprus provides consumption data in
quantity and value terms, while data is also received from water distribution
and desalination units. Compilation method The Industrial Output Prices
Index is using 2015 as base year, meaning that it shows the monthly changes
in prices in relation with the monthly average prices of the year 2015. In
the base year, the average of the price indices for the twelve months is 100,0.
For example, a monthly price index of 112,3 means that the prices for the
specific month have increased by 12,3% in relation to the average monthly
prices of 2015. The aggregated Industrial
Output Prices Index is a weighted average of the price indices of the various
sub-sectors of Industry. The weights used reflect the sales value of products
belonging to each sub-sector in the base year (2015) in relation to the total
sales value of the sector. The compilation of the
Industrial Output Prices Index follows the provisions of Regulation (EU)
2019/2152 on European business statistics. The Index is transmitted every
month to the Statistical Office of the European Union (Eurostat). For more information: CYSTAT Portal, subtheme Industry, CYSTAT-DB (Online Database),Predefined Tables (Excel) Contact: (NG/IK) |
