DEFINITION of 'Retail Sales'. An aggregated measure of the sales of retail goods over a stated time period, typically based on a data sampling that is extrapolated to model an entire country. In the U.S., the retail sales report is a monthly economic indicator compiled and released by the Census Bureau and the Department of Commerce.
Gross income from a retail sale is calculated before any deductions or exemptions. A taxable retail sale equals the retail sale activity less deductions or exemptions and is the amount subject to retail sales tax. A substantial portion of retail sales are not subject to retail sales tax.
