The use of data stored in administrative sources (or for tax purposes) is the best solution to reduce costs and problems relevant to statistical surveys on enterprises. As pre-requisite aimed to this purpose there is the build-up of a business register (BR) to be used as frame for surveys. What affects quality of the BR for this purpose is the presence of errors due to the inclusion in the register of enterprises not carrying out a real activity or, on the contrary, the exclusion of those units active in economic sense. The present paper presents a probabilistic model to determine the activity status of an enterprise as relevant information to be included in the BR.

Abstract
The use of data stored in administrative sources (or for tax purposes) is the best solution to reduce costs and problems relevant to statistical surveys on enterprises. As pre-requisite aimed to this purpose there is the build-up of a business register (BR) to be used as frame for surveys. What affects quality of the BR for this purpose is the presence of errors due to the inclusion in the register of enterprises not carrying out a real activity or, on the contrary, the exclusion of those units active in economic sense. The present paper presents a probabilistic model to determine the activity status of an enterprise as relevant information to be included in the BR. In absence of specific statistical surveys available to estimate parameters, this paper describes an alternative method based on the use of representative groups of administrative information.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
