The data validation adjustments remedy the uncovered source data
problem. In this case, the difference between the initial and the adjusted data
should be analysed, and the adjusted items should also be validated from all
aspects. For example, if an enterprise reports incorrect sales data, other related
data – including the employment should be also examined.
The conceptual items adjust the basic data to bring it in line with the ESA
definitions. For example it includes net taxes on production to ensure the data
at basic prices. (Eurostat (2005b)) These conceptual adjustments in gross value
added do not induce additional employment in Hungary. The exhaustiveness
adjustments (Murai, B., &Ritzlne Kazimir, I. (2011)) show the non-observed
economy that may infer non-observed employment and even non-observed
wages and salaries, while some non-observed subcategories, like value added
tax (VAT) fraud without complicity (N6), wages and salaries in kind, gratuity,
and tips (N7) do not induce additional non-observed employment. The mostly
employment related non-observed category is the mentioned N7 (salaries in
kind, gratuity, and tips) can be subtracted from survey, census, and
administrative data, therefore it is included in the first category of the process
table called ‘survey, census and administrative records’, as it is shown in Table
1. The non-observed economic categories are the following:
- N1 includes private accommodation of households, and rents for other real
estates and unregistered educational activity of households.
- N2 category covers drugs, smuggling and prostitution.
