SERIES: 84311
TITLE: Car and truck sales reports
DATES: 1980-
ARRANGEMENT: Chronological

DESCRIPTION: This report contains statistics and analysis of quarterly car and truck sales in Utah. UCA 59-1-210 (24), 1990, requires the Tax Commission to compile and publish statistics relating to taxation in the state of Utah. This report includes a short review of each vehicle-class quarterly performance, as well as statistical tables showing comparisons and trends. Since vehicle sales significantly impact retail sales in the state, this report functions as an indicator of sales growth or decline throughout the state. It is intended for governmental or private enterprise use.

This report is added quarterly as part of a computer spread sheet program; at the end of the fourth quarter this report becomes the annual report. The initial edition, published in 1982, includes all of 1980, 1981, and the first half of 1982. Subsequent editions-except 1985 and 1986-contain only quarterly reports.
