It is primarily used for assessments of economic developments in industry in Denmark., The statistics are part of the EU's common short-term statistics and date back to 1974, but in their current form are comparable from 1985 onwards for most industries., Statistical presentation, The statistics are a monthly statement of the production and turnover index for the industry. The statistics are divided into five groups defined on the basis of the use of goods and services (eg production of durable and non-durable consumer goods) and the main groups mining and quarrying (B), manufacturing (C) and energy supply (D) and 12 main industry groups under main group C, which follow the Danish activity nomenclature - Danish activity code. The turnover index is also calculated by dividing a domestic market turnover index and an export turnover index. All figures are published both adjusted for seasonal fluctuations and in actual figures., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Every month, information is collected on the value of turnover and stock from a sample of approx. 1,000 industrial companies in Denmark. For most, this is done using online questionnaires, but for about 20 per cent. of the companies, the information can instead be collected from statistical registers. The received data is debugged and production is calculated based on turnover and stock figures. Then the data is weighted so that a production and a turnover index can be calculated that represents the entire industry sector in Denmark covering mining & quarry, manufacturing and energy supply. The results are seasonally adjusted to eliminate normal seasonal fluctuations, Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The development of the production and turnover indices are primary used for manufacturing industry business cycle analyses and as input for the national accounts. Various users include industry organisations, public authorities and the news media. , Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, There is some sampling uncertainty as the statistics are based on a sample of companies. In addition, there are a number of assumptions in calculations, eg in connection with the valuation of inventories. In the first version of the numbers, there is a bit of a lapse., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published between 35 and 40 days after the end of the month.

The statistics cover the period from from 1996 and is published yearly in March. The statistics were first published in 1922 and the method used for calculating the corporate tax has not changed since the first publication. , Statistical presentation, The statistics are an annual account of the taxable income and tax for all companies. The statistics provide information about how many companies that actually pay corporate tax in Denmark. The statistics are shown by type of company and type of industry. The tax is divided by industry and type. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data is received annually from the Danish Tax Agency. The companies’ information is combined and checked for consistency between a tax declaration part, an assessed part, a joint taxation part, and a deficit part. The validation takes place by comparing the level of the total corporate taxes in relation to the previous year, where both business tendencies and possible tax rate changes are taken into account., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The statistics are part of the general economic debate. The statistics are in demand from ministries, politicians, public and private institutions, researchers, enterprises and news media. The statistics often gets a lot of attention in the media and among other professional users., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The statistics cover all taxable companies. The data are subject to error detection and results control before publication. Error are corrected in collaboration with the Danish Tax Agency. In general, companies have great incentive to report on time, as they otherwise have to pay a tax supplement. The tax can unpredictably either increase or decline, which is impossible to correct for. The unpredictable changes occurs among other things because of errors in either taxable income or a long review time and process. The corrections are allocated to the relevant year., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published in March year two after the income year. The finalised corporate taxes are published in March year three after the income year. The statistics are usually published without delay in respect to the scheduled time. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistics were published for the first time in 1922 and the method for computing the tax has not changed – only the tax rate has changed. The taxation systems vary widely across countries, both in terms of conceptual and computational differences which makes the comparison difficult.

The simplest and most commonly used concept of productivity is labor productivity, which is used here. Labor productivity (LP) and the causes for the change in LP is calculated back to 1966., Statistical presentation, Productivity is basically a measure of how efficiently you use your resources (labor, capital, etc.) when producing goods and services. In this statistic it is also calculated which resources contribute most to the change in productivity. Productivity change is distributed across industries for the various productivity components. The statistics are disseminated in News from Statistics Denmark and the StatBank., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Labor productivity is defined as the real value of Gross value added (GVA) per hour worked. The calculations are based on figures from market activity from national accounts, i.e. the total economy excluding the sectors: General government (S.13) and NPISH (S.15). The sources used for calculating the productivity growth is fixed capital, Labor force education statistics and sector account figures for Gross value added and hours worked., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The national accounts (including Productivity statistics) constitute core indicators of the analyses of economic growth. Users are primary researchers, economic departments and organizations., The division of national accounts continuously evaluates feedback from our users., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The precision of the calculation of productivity growth is closely related to the uncertainty of the variables that are included in the calculation. I.e. how well, the value of an hour's work is reflected in the gross value added in fixed prices for the industry; the quality of the calculated hours and whether there are special conditions in the industry that make labor productivity less relevant, e.g. high capital intensity. For multiple industries, labor productivity growth should not stand alone in productivity analyzes. This applies, for example, to dwellings, public administration, education and health., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, First preliminary version of Labor productivity (LP) for year t is published end of March in year t+1.

VAT, cost of land and other costs not directly linked to the construction. The statistic is typically used in analyses of price developments in the construction sector. It has been compiled since 2019 with indices dating back to 2015., Statistical presentation, The Producer Price Index for Construction of Dwellings is a quarterly measurement of price developments of commercial transactions related to the construction of new dwellings, i.e. the price a household or a developer pays the construction company for the construction of a dwelling. The statistic only covers construction of free standing one-family houses, and is therefore not representative of e.g. multi-family houses, terraced houses, general housing, vacation homes or commercial/industrial buildings., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Every quarter approximately 500-1200 prices are collected from a sample of relevant type house construction companies in Denmark. Prices and addresses are merged with relevant information from the Danish Buildings and Dwellings Register (BBR) on e.g. floor area and various amenities. This information is used to calculate the price development of construction of new dwellings., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The Producer Price Index for Construction of Dwellings is a business cycle indicator, which is used in analyses of economic developments in Denmark. It is used in the Danish National Accounts, and is part of the framework of EU short term business statistics. Surveys of user satisfaction are not performed, but the statistics is part of Danish Statistics' expert committee for statistics on housing and civil engineering., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The collected price observations are examined for errors both manually and by computer. The extend of different error types is therefore considered to be negligible. As the collected data originates solely from typehouse companies, the statistic is considered to be more accurate for typical housing constructions and less so for unique constructions. Also, the used hedonic statistical model does not consider the quality of applied building materials or the quality of the work carried out., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, These statistics are published quarterly, approx. 3-4 month after the end of the reference period., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistic has a continuous time series from 2015 until present day.

The data collected and the level of detail have remained unchanged throughout the period. Data quality and reliability are expected to be higher after 1 January 1990, when a raw material tax was introduced, resulting in increased control of the reporting by the authorities. As of 2007, data are compiled according to the new municipal and regional structure, and reliability is considered slightly lower than before 2007 due to problems with implementation of the new municipality-reform in 2007., 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.

The index of average earnings was first published for the first quarter of 1994 under the name , the index of average earnings in the private sector, . Since then the index has been published based on the Danish Industrial Classification of 1996 (DB96), Danish Industrial Classification of 2003 (DB03) and since the third quarter of 2008 based on the Danish Industrial Classification of 2007 (DB07). Moreover, the index of average earnings replaced the index of hourly earnings for workers in manufacturing industry and the index of monthly earnings for salaried employees in manufacturing industry, which were discontinued at the end of 1997., Statistical presentation, The index of average earnings comprises all employees, salaried employees (white collar employee or officials) and wage-earners (blue collar workers) as well as apprentices and young people under 18 years employed in a business enterprise with 10 or more persons in the private sector. The entire private sector is covered by the indices, including e.g. employees in private schools and private hospitals. Still, the index does not include enterprises belonging to either the agriculture or fisheries industries. In accordance with the nomenclature DB07 (Danish Industrial Classification 2007), the the index is broken down by industry and since the third quarter of 2008 published at the most detailed level according to the 36-grouping in DB07. For a period between the first quarter of 2005 and the second quarter of 2008, the indices were only published at the 10-grouping level., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data are collected from the private enterprises and organisations that are included in the sample and cover the second month of the quarter in question. To start with, a rough search for errors is performed on the data. Then, the change in the average earnings per hour from the previous quarter is calculated for each enterprise. Only enterprises where data exists for both quarters are included in the computations. The average hourly wage per observations in the sample is then weighted to take account of all enterprises in a specific branch of economic activity in the population. A total figure for the average hourly wage and the rate of increase from the last quarter is then calculated for each branch of economic activity. After this the index point and the annual rate of increase is calculated for each branch. Finally the total index point and annual rate of increase is found as a total for all branches., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Private corporations and organisations in Denmark and abroad, and ministries and other public institutions are the most frequent users of the index. The index is especially used in relation to regulation of contracts. In addition to that, the index plays a vital part in the wage negotiations of employees in the public sector., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The accuracy and reliability is mainly affected by two factors. First of all, the index is based on a sample, which in itself cause some uncertainty. Second of all, there is some uncertainty connected to the completeness in the collected data, which is often caused by errors in the way the system is generated for transmission of data. An example of this is a payroll system where the different wage compositions are not correctly linked or reported, and thus give an inaccurate picture of the development of wages. The problem with errors like these is that they tend to be difficult to discover. For example would reporting of a low and wrong value for irregular payments result in too high calculation of wage developments, as the irregular payments could not be separated from the wage component., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The index of average earnings is published approximately 60 days after the end of the quarter in question. The punctuality of the publication is considered high and there has been no delays of any kind during the last years., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The index of average earnings for Corporations and Organizations, replace , the index of average earnings of the private sector, which was last published for the fourth quarter of 2013. The comparability of the two indices is considered to be high. The difference has to do with the new applied delimitations of the sectors, where some of the public owned enterprises, such as Danish Railways (DSB) and some of the municipal owned resource centers, now according to the new delimitations of the sectors belong to “the index of average earnings of Corporations and Organizations”. The new sector delimitations were applied in the indices going back to first quarter of 2013, where it caused a small data breach., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published in the Statbank under , Implicit index of average earnings, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity
