METHODOLOGICAL NOTE
In the first quarter of 2023, we made some methodological changes. Similar to previous years, we changed the weights; they are based on the statistical survey Structural Business Statistics data on turnover in 2021 and are converted into prices from the last quarter of 2022. At the same time, we revised the list of services whose prices we monitor and the list of enterprises that report prices. The survey includes 1,122 enterprises that report prices for 4,977 services per quarter.
