Rental income and commissions are included, while special taxes, subsidies and profits from sales of businesses assets are not. VAT is not included in the statistics.
The industry classification is in accordance with the Norwegian Standard Industrial Classification (SIC2007) used in Statistics Norway, which is based on the EU Standard NACE Rev. 2 and the United Nation’s International Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities (ISIC), Rev. 4.

The statistics comprises most of the enterprises that are registered in the above groups , as long as the enterprises were registered with activity in Norway in the relevant statistical year.
The exception is enterprises within the public service sectors 110, 510 and 550. Such units are not included in the structural business statistics for real estate, renting and business activities even though they should happen to have operations in the abovementioned industries.
However, all other enterprises in the public sector or owned by the public sector, i.e. units with sector codes 610, 630, 635, 660 and 680, are included in the statistics if they have activity in the abovementioned industries.
Data are collected directly from the enterprises through a survey. In addition, information about turnover for every enterprise in the population are collected through the Structural Business Statistic.
The population consists of all enterprises in the relevant industry groups with registered activity in the reference year. The population is divided into subpopulations, called strata, after criteria like industrial classification and number of employees. In some of the strata, all enterprises are always included in the sample. From the remaining strata, a representative selection of enterprises is drawn. The enterprises in the sample are identical with enterprises in the sample for Structural Business Statistic.
The enterprises in the sample provide information about turnover, divided between different products. For the enterprises outside the sample information about total turnover are collected through the Structural Business Statistic.
The questionnaires are sent out in April/May after the end of the statistical year, with a response deadline of four or five weeks. The enterprises that do not respond to the first letter will receive reminders in writing up until six months after the first deadline. Failure to respond is subject to fines.
The questionnaires are particular controlled for industry codes and breakdown of turnover into products.
The raw data are checked against reports for last year, the Central Register of Establishments and Enterprises, the Register of Annual Company Reports in Brønnøysund and other available sources like the Internet, and by contacting the respondent if necessary.
For the enterprises where a complete Trading statement (NO) with supplementary form exists, no variables are estimated. For these enterprises the information in the forms are used.
For the enterprises outside the sample we collect turnover from the Structural Business Statistics. We estimate the value of each product in every single enterprises, based on key from the sample in the same strata.
Employees of Statistics Norway have a duty of confidentiality.
Statistics Norway does not publish figures if there is a risk of the respondent’s contribution being identified. This means that, as a general rule, figures are not published if fewer than three units form the basis of a cell in a table or if the contribution of one or two respondents constitutes a very large part of the cell total.
Statistics Norway can make exceptions to the general rule if deemed necessary to meet the requirements of the EEA agreement, if the respondent is a public authority, if the respondent has consented to this, or when the information disclosed is openly accessible to the public.
More information can be found on Statistics Norway’s website under Methods in official statistics, in the ‘Confidentiality’ section.
To ensure confidentiality, the ‘rounding up/down’ method is used in these statistics.
So far the statistic has only been published for the reference year 2004.
The results of a statistical survey will as a rule contain some measurement and processing errors. Measurement errors occur when the provider of the data gives erroneous answers due to forgetfulness, misunderstanding of the question etc.
Processing errors are errors from coding or errors that occur during the transferring of information from the questionnaire to the machine-readable medium or during revision.
Non-response will always be a factor in form-based surveys. This is because some respondents either do not return their forms or return them incompletely filled out.
Non-response can also be due to mergers, acquisiions, bankruptcy, etc.
Non-response from important units will be followed-up in the manual revision process. Other enterprises, which do not respond, will be treated the same way as the enterprises outside the sample.
Sampling errors is the uncertainty that occurs when the figures are produced on the basis of a sample of data, and not the whole population. The sampling error is the expected deviation between the result of the sample and the result if the whole population were examined.
Imbalances in the sample (e.g. misleading stratification) can cause errors for the variables for which information has not been obtained for all units in the population. Statistics Norway assumes explicitly by the imputation that enterprises outside the sample have the same cost and income structure as enterprises in the sample.
The Central Register of Establishments and Enterprises, the Register of Annual Company Reports in Brønnøysund, the VAT Register and the Register of Employees and Employers (the AA Register) are used in order to define the population and help collect the necessary data.
Errors in these administrative registers - like time gaps in registration, incorrectly identified unit characteristics etc. may therefore be a potential source of uncertainty in the statistics and may for instance have an impact when dividing the population into adequate strata.
