Appendix7 Explanatory
Notes on Main Statistical Indicators
1 Volume of
Precipitation
refers to the deepness of liquid state or solid state (thawed) water
falling from the sky to the ground that has not been evaporated, infiltrated or
run off. The volume of precipitation takes “mm” as its unit with the accuracy
of one decimal place.
2 Sunshine Hours refer to the actual hours of sun irradiating the earth.
3 The wind direction and wind speed refer to the horizontal movement of wind.
The wind speed is the ratio of the distance, which the wind passed by, and the
time, the unit of the speed is meter/second.
4 The number of the days without frost refer to the days between the next day of
the non-frost day of the previous year to the preceding day of the first frost
day.(July 1st the previous year to June 30th this year).
5 Gross Domestic Product (GDP) refers to the final products of
all resident units in a country (or a region) during a certain period of time.
Gross domestic product is expressed in three different forms, i.e. value,
income, and products respectively. The form of value refers to the total value
of all products and services produced by all resident units during a certain
period of time minus total value of intimidate input of materials and services
of the nature of non-fixed assets or the summation of the value-added of all
resident units; the form of income includes all the income created by all
resident units and distributed primarily to all resident and non-resident units;
the form of products refers to the value of all final goods and services for
final use by all resident units plus the value of net exports of goods and
services during a given period of time. In the practice of national accounting,
gross domestic product is calculated with three approaches, i.e. production
approach, income approach, and expenditure approach, which reflect gross
domestic product and its composition from different aspects.
6 Comparable Prices refers to prices that removed the
factors of price change so as to exactly reflect the change of aggregate when
comparing the value of different periods. Two methods are used for calculating
comparable prices: 1. Multiplying the output of products by their fixed prices
of certain year; 2. Converting prices by relevant price index.
7 Constant
Price refers to the average price of a given
product in certain year, which is used for comparison of output value over
time. As the output value at constant prices removes the factor of price
changes, it reflects the trend of production development over time. Since 1949,
with the changes in general price level, National Bureau of Statistics has
issued nationally unified constant prices five times: the 1952 constant prices
for 1949-1957; the 1957 constant prices for 1957-1971; the 1970 constant prices
for 1971-1981; the 1980 constant prices for 1981-1990; and the 1990 constant
prices have been used since 1991.
8 Various Planning periods
the conventional division of time period in this statistical yearbook is
as follows: Economic Rehabilitation Period, 1960-1952; the First Five-Year Plan
period, 1953-1957; The Second Five-Year Plan period, 1958-1962; The Third
Five-Year Plan period, 1966-1970; The Fourth Five-Year Plan period, 1971-1975;
The Fifth Five-Year Plan period, 1976-1980; The Sixth Five-Year Plan period,
1981-1985; The Seventh Five-Year Plan period, 1986-1990;The Eighth Five-Year
Plan period, 1991-1995;The Ninth Five-Year Plan period, 1996-2000; The Tenth
Five-Year Plan period,2001-2005.
9 Average Annual Growth Rate
refers to the average growth rate year after year in a long period of
time. There are two methods for calculating: 1 “level approach”, or the method
of geometric level calculation, is the annual average growth (decrease) rate,
which derived by comparing the level of the last year of the interval with that
of the beginning year; the other is called “accumulative approach”, or
algebraic average or equation method, is the annual average growth (decrease)
rate, which is derived by summation of the actual figure of each year in the
interval divided by the figure in the base year. Usually, the results
calculated by the two methods are fairly close, but they differed sharply when
uneven economic development occurred with striking fluctuations in growth.
The average annual growth rates listed in this
statistical yearbook are all calculated by “level approach”. The base years are
not listed when the years are listed for average annual growth rates. For
example, the average annual growth rate of the 23 years since reform &
opening-up implemented is listed as 1979-2001 without listing the base year
1978, the rest of the years are analogized as the same.

According to the above principle of
classification, the repairing trades, which are engaged primarily in repairing
products of heavy industry, are classified into heavy industry while these

72 Gross Industrial Output Value is the total volume of industrial
products sold or available for sale in value terms which reflects the total
achievements and overall scale of industrial production during a given period.

processed in the enterprises and have been inspected, packed and put in
storage, the value of industrial services rendered to other units, and the
changes in the value of the semi-finished products and products in process
between the beginning and closing of the period. The gross industrial output
value is calculated with “factory method”. No double calculations are to be
made within the same enterprise. However, double counting does occur among
different enterprises.
Output
value of light and heavy industries is also classified with the “factory”
method. Under normal conditions, if the major products of an industrial
enterprise belong to light industry products, the gross output value of that
enterprise is classified wholly into light industry; the same principle applies
to heavy industry.

enterprise. As to those finished products and semi-finished products, no matter
whether products are manufactured in this calculation period or the previous
one, so long as they are sold out in this calculation period, they should be
included. The industrial operations are industrial services rendered to other
units according to contracts. The products, industrial operations and self-made
equipment provided to basic construction department, welfare department, and
etc. of the enterprise should be regarded as act of sale, and included in sales
statistics.
The scope, price and method of calculation of

value. However, the calculation base are different: the base for sales output
value is the total volume of products sold; the base for gross industrial
output value is total volume of production of industrial products.
74 Value-added of Industry refers to the final
