Key statistical concept
Data generally refer to products (i.e. output and input products) which have remained in the reporting unit at the end of the reference period. Output products comprise finished products of own manufacturing (products ready for sale) plus finished products manufactured by others (products for resale without additional manufacturing by the reporting unit). Input products include raw materials, semi-manufacture and materials needed for distribution of the finished products. Thus, stocks generally comprise the sum of raw materials, intermediate and finished goods. Specific information is available in country metadata.
