English Translation
It is likely that the stocks of trade will only later reflect the decline in producer prices in consumer prices. For example, in the case of workwear, a production rice of K 320,-- for the two-part suit and K 1.50 for trousers in large quantities. With the trade margins which have already been reduced, this results in an exceptionally low-priced increase in the labour force with appropriate workwear. The total value of the reductions in the second half of the year in 19942 represents, according to cautious estimates, a reduction in the consumer spending of this area by 3/4 billion kronor a year. This does not include the probably far higher savings of the public sector through the introduction of unit and group prices for armaments needs. Compared to previous years, the network of price-forming regulations has closed down much more densely. Prices that had previously slipped upwards have been captured. There is a precise and truthful overview of the economic profitability and cost situation, as it is the prerequisite for a successful price formation even in difficult times. For example, the further stabilization of prices in the year 19943 is the programme of self-regulation. Individual reductions will still be achieved through reductions in trade margins, since the review of trade will only begin in the first place after the processing of the industry has been completed. The development of the empire is, naturally, essential for the progress of things here.
