Methodological explanations

Considering the demands of the increasing number of users and striving for the harmonization of the operations with international standards and recommendations, the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia continues to publish the selected macroeconomic indicators for unincorporated enterprises in the edition “Working paper”. This survey involves unincorporated enterprises i.e. sole-proprietorships and partnerships that performed business operations in 2013, based on the Tax administration records and the data available from the Serbian Business Registers Agency.

Within the international project envisaged for the development the national accounts system and GDP calculation, the SORS and its National Accounts Division adopted the recommendations and positive experiences of the European statistics that refer to the calculations of the most important macroeconomic aggregates for the institutional sector of households, of which unincorporated enterprises (sole-proprietorships and partnerships) are the mayor part.

When computing macroeconomic aggregates for this segment of the national economy, the Serbian and the European statisticians encounter almost the same problems: small scale of business and large number of unincorporated enterprises, high yearly frequency of newly started businesses and high “mortality rate” of enterprises, lack of stability regarding principal activity and employment, etc. Both in Europe and in our country, this section presents a chronic source of so-called non-observed economy. Such problems appear partly because of the mere nature of unincorporated business, i.e. the fact that entrepreneur’s personal property is not separated from the business-related property and obligations. However, the greatest problems regarding statistics are of administrative and legal nature. Firstly, it is the fact that double-entry book keeping is not compulsory for unincorporated enterprises and they are not obliged to provide detailed financial reports that serve as the basis for the calculations of macroeconomic aggregates for incorporated enterprises and other legal entities obliged to submit financial reports to the respective authorities. In such a situation, statisticians are compelled to provide estimated data, based on relatively small data volume that unincorporated enterprises deliver to tax authorities. The estimations presented are grounded on the Hungarian model of computation of the basic elements of national accounts system concerning unincorporated enterprises. This model originated from the French experience of statistical treatment of unincorporated enterprises.

The model is based on the assumption that business conditions of sole-proprietorships and the way their business is organized are almost equal to the conditions and business methods of micro incorporated enterprises, meaning that certain corresponding indicators noticed in statistical treatment of micro enterprises can be also applied to unincorporated enterprises (with some corrections envisaged). In French statistics, almost all elements of national accounts related to unincorporated enterprises (number of employees, stocks changes, investments, interest paid, etc.) are estimated in the before mentioned way, simply applying corresponding coefficients of micro enterprises[1]. The fact that we possess certain (not small) number of financial reports of unincorporated enterprises (about 20 000) makes the whole process easier than in majority of the European countries. Such valuable data, together with the data on taxable income, wages and salaries and number of employees (available from the Serbian Tax administration) have been used as the grounds for our calculations. Moreover, for the calculations we used the indicators derived from the financial statements of micro and small-sized incorporated enterprises concerning turnover, value added, earnings per employee, etc. In estimating the number of employees, as supplementary data we used LFS (Labour Force Survey) data. This is due the fact that in the EU countries, LFS is considered as the major data source for the estimation of formal and informal employment.

Finally, it should be noted that every estimated figure also anticipates certain bigger or smaller level of reliability; however, taking into account the data availability, as well as the specific features of sole-proprietorships in Serbia, these results present the best that can be provided for the time being. Expectedly, in the forthcoming years, both volume and quality of the available data will be upgraded, and together with the improved methodology, better and more precise results will be ensured.

The processed results are obtained for: (1) number of unincorporated enterprises, (2) number of employees, (3) turnover and (4) Gross value added. Concerning the territorial distribution, the data are expressed for the level 1 and 2, the National nomenclature of statistical territorial units (NSTJ): Srbija – sever and Srbija – jug (NSTJ 1), and the level of regions, (NSTJ 2): Beogradski region, Region Vojvodine, Region Šumadije i Zapadne Srbije, and Region Južne i Istočne Srbije.
