Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Burden: 11,095 hours.
Number of Respondents: 21,570.
Avg Hours Per Response: 31 minutes.
Needs and Uses: The U.S. Census
Bureau requests continued OMB
approval of the Annual Retail Trade
Survey (ARTS). The ARTS provides the
only continuing official measure of
annual total retail sales, e-commerce
sales, end-of-year inventories, sales/
inventory ratios, purchases, inventory
valuation methods, gross margin, and
end-of-year accounts receivables for
retailers and annual sales and ecommerce sales for accommodation and
food services firms in the United States.
The data collected in the ARTS
provide a current statistical picture of
the retail and food services and
accommodations portions of consumer
activity. Also, the estimates compiled
from this survey provide valuable
information for economic policy
decisions and actions by government
and are widely used by private
businesses, trade organizations,
professional associations, and others for
market research and analysis. The sales
and receipts are used by the Bureau of
Economic Analysis (BEA) in
determining the consumption portion of
the Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
The BEA is the primary Federal user
of the data collected in the ARTS and
the information collected is critical to
the quality of several of BEA’s key
programs. The data on retail sales are
used to prepare detailed annual
personal consumption expenditures
estimates; merchandise inventories,
valuation methods and merchandise
purchases are used to prepare annual
estimates of change in the business
inventory component of GDP. Sales,
merchandise purchases, inventories,
inventory valuation and sales tax data
are used to prepare estimates of GDP by
industry and to derive industry output
for the input-output accounts.
In addition, the results of the ARTS
are used to benchmark estimates of
monthly retail sales, e-commerce sales,
and inventories from the Current Retail
Sales and Inventory Survey (OMB
Approval #0607–0717), which are key
economic indicators that provide timely
input for computation of the national
accounts. Accounts receivable balances
are used by the Federal Reserve Board
in measuring consumer credit.
