Introductory note

Contents

The publication contains information on the development of basic indicators of employment and financial performance of businesses in Retail Trade, Hotels and Restaurants, that are included in the following Divisions of the CZ-NACE.

50 – Sale, maintenance and repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles; Retail of automotive fuel,
51 – Wholesale Trade and commission trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles,
52 – Retail Trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles; Repair of personal and household goods,
55 – Hotels and Restaurants.

As for institutional sectors, these branches comprise entities from the sector 11 (non-financial enterprises) and sector 14 (households – unincorporated natural persons).

Data in the publication result from the processing of the quarterly questionnaire P 3-04. For the selection of businesses included in the survey we used administrative sources that are included in the Business Register. Medium-size businesses (usually with 20 – 99 employees) fill the questionnaire P 3(b)-04 and large businesses (usually with 100 and more employees) the questionnaire P 3(c)-04. Individual “mutations“ of the questionnaire P 3-04 differ as for the number of indicators required; basic indicators have the same methodological determination and are measured by both the questionnaires. In total, the quarterly questionnaire in the Trade, Hotels and Restaurants branch in 4th quarter was sent to approximately 4 thousand units; response rate (percentage of filled-in questionnaires that came back) was 68.4%. Data for the set of units that do not receive the quarterly questionnaire (small businesses, usually with less than 20 employees or without employees) are estimated using information from monthly surveys S P 1 – 12 and then specified according to the last results of annual surveys available (now we have preliminary processed annual questionnaires for the year 2003). Data in this publication for both years (2004, 2005) are preliminary.

The publication contains basic indicators by individual Divisions (2-digit codes) of CZ-NACE, an overview of financial indicators for large businesses (with 100 and more employees) in total, from that for foreign controlled enterprises (sub-sector 11003) and other enterprises (sub-sector 11001,11002 and sector 14). The graphical part contains data on average wages and structure of sales.

Financial indicators (where not mentioned otherwise) are in current prices in millions CZK. Indices are calculated from sources data, so they are not calculated from round off numbers in thous. Kč
