* Since 2013 the indicator calculated by the RA Law “On Income Tax” acquired the force since 01.01.2013, according to which in RA since 1 January 2013 “employer’s statutory social security contribution” is also included in the “employees’ remuneration and other payments equal to it”. As a result of change of the mentioned legislation, in order to provide comparability of indicators for 2012-2013, the corresponding indicators for 2012 were re-calculated by the current methodology, using the method of applying the calculated (conditional) rates of employer’s statutory social security contribution.
