Annual Production and Demand

6-digit Harmonized System Codes

It is a database developed by StudiaBo. It is based on an estimate of the Domestic Sales of a specific product, for all countries considered. Based on the just estimated Domestic Sales, the following measures are calculated:

a) production = exports + domestic sales;

b) demand = imports + domestic sales.

Domestic Sales of a product are calculated using two different methodologies. In the cases where public information is available (sources: Unido and Eurostat) concerning the production of a given product in a country, Domestic Sales are derived by subtracting exports from the product concerned from production. In the cases where there is no public information regarding the production of a product by country, Domestic Sales are obtained by attributing the different countries to one of the following clusters:

1) importer;

2) non-competitive producer on foreign markets;

3) exporter;

4) leader on international markets;

5) re-exporter of imported goods;

6) closed economy.
