GOODS COVERED [14 records]

Record 1 2024-07-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Management Control
  • Customs and Excise
CONT

Customs audits are a reality, and it is best to prepare [in order] to reduce [the] level of risk. Generally, the customs authorities will establish the sectors of activity covered by the audits throughout the following year. Audits can also be triggered by the discovery of an erroneous transaction in a specific sector of activity. The customs authorities will then locate a checklist of importers likely to follow this type of transaction. Therefore, it is essential for any importer to find out how to declare in-bond goods.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Contrôle de gestion
  • Douanes et accise
CONT

Les audits douaniers sont une réalité, et mieux vaut [se] préparer pour réduire [le] niveau de risque. En général, les autorités douanières établiront les secteurs d'activités visés par les audits au cours de l'année qui suit. Les audits peuvent également être déclenchés par la découverte d'une opération erronée dans un secteur d'activité spécifique. Les autorités douanières identifieront alors une liste des importateurs susceptibles de suivre ce genre d'opération. Il est donc essentiel pour tout importateur de s'informer pour savoir comment déclarer une marchandise en douane.

Record 3 2016-04-01

English

Subject field(s)
  • Pricing Theory
  • Cost of Living
DEF

A measure to express real prices.

CONT

Real prices are those that have been adjusted to remove the effect of changes in the purchasing power of the dollar; they usually reflect buying power relative to a reference year. Prior to 1996, real prices were expressed in constant dollars, a measure based on the weights of goods and services in a single year, usually a recent year. In 1996, the U. S. [United States] Department of Commerce introduced the chained-dollar measure. The new measure is based on the average weights of goods and services in successive pairs of years. It is "chained" because the second year in each pair, with its weights, becomes the first year of the next pair. The advantage of using the chained-dollar measure is that it is more closely related to any given period covered and is subject to less distortion over time.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Théorie des prix
  • Coût de la vie
CONT

Pour chaque groupe industriel, le gouvernement américain utilise des estimations du produit réel, ou exprimées en dollars chaînés, parce que les mesures chaînes de la croissance réelle sont plus révélatrices que les mesures à pondération fixe (exprimées en dollars constants); en effet, les mesures chaînes permettent d'éviter les biais de substitution qui résultent de l'évolution des prix relatifs à mesure qu'on s'éloigne de l'année de référence.
