***************************************************************************************
ANNUAL RETAIL TRADE SURVEY
PURPOSE
To provide detailed industry measures of retail company activities. The
United States Code, Title 13, authorizes this survey and provides for
mandatory responses.
COVERAGE
Retail companies with one or more establishments that sell merchandise and
associated services to final consumers (SIC Division G). In 1995, consumers
spent more than an estimated $2.3 trillion at retail establishments.
CONTENT
Companies provide data on dollar value of retail sales, sales taxes
collected, inventories, method-of-inventory valuation, cost of purchases,
and account receivables balances.
FREQUENCY
Annually since 1951 (except 1954); reported data are for activity taking
place over the prior calendar year. Data collection begins the first week
after the close of the year. Samples are re-selected every 5 years and
updated annually, most recently for the 1996 reference year.
METHODS
A mail-out/mail-back survey of a sub-sample of about 22,000 firms selected
from the monthly retail trade survey panels. The annual survey consists of
all monthly survey panel firms that had payrolls during the reference year,
plus administrative data or imputed values to account for nonemployer
retail businesses.
There are currently about 31,000 companies in the monthly sample. The
monthly sample consists of 3 rotating panels of about 6,100 single-unit
firms and 2,200 small multi-unit firms; and a special panel of large
multi-unit firms and other firms with large sales.
The annual survey uses 2 of the 3 rotating monthly panels, and the special
monthly panel. Since 1977, the monthly retail trade survey has been
benchmarked to the annual retail trade report. Inventories have been
similarly benchmarked since 1951. Annual estimates are benchmarked to the
most recent census of retail trade. In addition, benchmarking the annual
survey to the monthly surveys greatly improved the quality of the monthly
estimates and allowed the sample to be reduced.

DEFINITION OF TERMS
Sales. Sales include the following: merchandise sold for cash or credit at
retail and wholesale by establishments primarily engaged in retail trade;
amounts received from customers for layaway purchases; receipts from rental
or leasing of vehicles, equipment, instruments, tools, etc; receipts for
delivery, installation, maintenance, repair, alteration, storage, and other
services; and receipts from gasoline, liquor, tobacco, and other excise
taxes which are paid by the manufacturer or wholesaler and passed along to
the retailer. Sales are net after deduction for refunds and allowances for
merchandise returned by customers. Trade-in allowances and manufacturers'
rebates are not deducted from total sales, however, rebates offered by the
retailer are deducted. Total sales do not include commissions from vending
machine operators or nonoperating income from such sources as investments
and rental or sales or real estate.
Sales exclude sales and excise taxes collected directly from customers and
paid directly to a local, State, or Federal tax agency. Also excluded are
receipts from customers for carrying or other credit charges.
The sales data represent total sales and receipts of all establishments
primarily engaged in retail trade. They do not include sales at retail by
manufacturers, wholesalers, service establishments, and others whose
primary activity is other than retail trade.
Inventories. Inventories represent stocks of merchandise, valued at cost,
on hand for sale by retail establishments at the end of the month. Methods
of valuation may vary according to the accounting practices of the firms.
However, the estimates provided are on a non-LIFO basis. Inventories are
shown for retail stores and warehouses combined. Only those warehouses
which maintain supplies of merchandise primarily intended for distribution
to retail stores within the organization are included. Inventories exclude
the value of fixtures, furnishings, equipment, and supplies used in store
and warehouse operations and not held for resale.
Inventories-sales ratios. The inventories-sales ratios indicate the
relationship of end-of-month inventories to sales during the month. The
ratios shown are derived by dividing the inventories estimates by the
corresponding sales estimates. No adjustment is made in these ratios for
the markup in sales which may vary from one kind of business to another.
Kind-of-business classifications. Retail trade, defined as major groups 52
through 59 of the SIC Manual, includes establishments engaged in selling
merchandise for personal or household consumption and rendering services
incidental to the sale of the goods. Exceptions to this general rule are
made necessary by trade practices. For example, lumber yards and paint,
glass, and wallpaper stores are included in retail trade if they sell to
the general public, even if a higher proportion of their sales is made to
contractors. Also, establishments engaged in selling products such as
typewriters, stationery or gasoline to the general public are classified in
retail trade, even though such products may not be used for personal or
household consumption. However, even within these areas of exception to the
general rule, establishments that sell exclusively to business
establishments, institutional and industrial users, or contractors are
classified in wholesale trade.
Additional characteristics of retail trade establishments are that they
usually operate at fixed places of business; they are engaged in activities
to attract the general public to buy; they buy or receive merchandise as
well as sell; they may process their products, but such processing is
incidental or subordinate to selling; and they are considered as retail in
the trade. Not all of these characteristics need to be present, and some
are modified by trade practice.
Kind-of-business classifications are not interchangeable with commodity
classifications. Most businesses sell several kinds of commodities. The
kind-of-business code assigned generally reflects the individual commodity,
the commodity group which is the primary source of the establishment's
receipts, or some mixture of commodities which characterizes the
establishment's business. Classification of establishments by kind of
business generally does not make it possible to determine either the number
of establishments handling a particular commodity or the sales of that
commodity. For example, the food group classification excludes stores
selling food if the sale of food is not the primary source of receipts;
moreover, even though stores are classified as food stores, some of their
receipts may be derived from the sales of nonfood products.
