  • Price Movements September 1980

    The Producer Price Index for Finished Goods edged down 0.2 percent from August to September on a seasonally adjusted basis. The September decline followed advances of 1.7 and l.S percent in July and August, respectively. Prices for intermediate (semifinished) goods moved up 0.6 percent, somewhat less than in either of the 2 preceding months. Crude material prices increased 1.3 percent, considerably less than in either July or August (table A).

    Nearly two-thirds of the sharp slowdown in the Finished Goods Price Index was caused by a 0.2 percent decrease in food prices, which had risen about 4 percent in each of the 2 previous months. Most of the rest of the deceleration was due to sharply lower prices for motor vehicles, as car and truck manufacturers closed out the 1980 model year with across-the-board discounts. Small

    declines were also recorded for energy goods. On average, prices for other finished goods rose 0.7 per-cent, about as much as in August.

    Before seasonal adjustment, the Finished Goods Price Index was virtually unchanged at 248.9 (1967 = 100). Over the year, thfc index rose 12.8 percent. The index for finished consumer foods increased 7.8 percent from September 1979 to September 1980, energy prices were up 36.4 percent, the index for finish-ed consumer goods other than foods and energy increased 11.4 percent, and capital equipment prices moved up 10.8 percent. The Producer Price Index for intermediate goods advanced 13.2 percent over the year, and crude material prices were 15.1 percent higher than a year ago.

  • Finished goods Finished consumer goods. The Producer Price Index for finished consumer goods declined 0.2 percent in September on a seasonally adjusted basis, after rising 1.8 percent in both July and August. Most of the turn-around was due to lower food prices. Prices turned down for beef and veal, pork, and fish, following in-creases in each of the previous 3 months. Prices also turned down for roasted coffee and refined sugar. Prices for fresh and dried vegetables, processed poultry, and eggs all rose in September, although not as sharply as in the previous month. On the other hand, milled rice prices rose 9.1 percent, almost twice as much as in August.

    The price index for consumer goods other than foods and energy was unchanged in September. Passenger car prices declined 4.2 percent, following increases of about 2 percent in both July and August. The September decrease reflected across-the-board discounts granted by domestic producers to close out the 1980 model year. (These liquidation allowances are included in the PPI because they represent more accurate transaction prices. Data limitations prevented BLS from reflecting these allowances in previous years.) Flatware prices also turned down, and price increases slowed markedly for alcoholic beverages and soaps and synthetic detergents. In contrast, prices for jewelry, tires and tubes, lawnmowers, and over-the-counter drugs turned up

    after declining in August. Price increases accelerated for textile housefurnishings and consumer plastics.

    Prices for finished energy goods fell 0.4 percent, the fifth consecutive moderate monthly change following the surge in energy prices which began in late 1978. Gasoline prices fell 0.7 percent, the fourth consecutive monthly decline. Home heating oil prices moved down 0.2 percent, after 2 months of small increases. Prices for finished lubricants rose much less than in August. Capital equipment. The index for capital equipment edged down 0.1 percent, after rising considerably in each of the previous 2 months. Prices for motor vehicles fell sharply, after rising substantially in both July and August. Photographic equipment prices also turned down after advancing in August. On the other hand, prices rose after little or no change in August for air-craft, plastic and rubber industry machinery, agricultural machinery, chemical industry machinery, railroad equipment, hand tools, and metal cutting machine tools.

    intermediate materials The Producer Price Index for Intermediate Materials,

    Supplies, and Components moved up 0.6 percent in September, seasonally adjusted, following a 1.0 percent increase in August. The slowdown was due to the index for foods and feeds, which rose only one-tenth as much as in the previous month. Prices for most other goods

  • continued to either rise moderately or decline, although sharp advances were registered for nonferrous metals and some machine parts.

    The index for intermediate foods and feeds rose 0.9 percent, after climbing 9.7 percent in August. Price in-creases decelerated for formula feeds, crude vegetable oils, and flour. In addition, prices fell for refined sugar used in food manufacturing, animal fats and oils, grain by-product feeds, refined vegetable oils, and milk chocolate coating. Corn syrup prices held steady, following several months of large increases. In contrast, prices for vegetable cake and meal feeds advanced rapidly for the third consecutive month.

    The index for intermediate materials less foods and energy increased 0.S percent, slightly less than in August. Within that category the nondurable manufac-turing materials index edged down 0.1 percent, follow-ing a 0.9 percent advance in the previous month. Prices fell for industrial chemicals, lemon oil, plastic resins and materials, inedible fats and oils, and leather. On the other hand, higher prices were recorded for gray fabrics, synthetic fibers, and pharmaceutical materials.

    The construction materials index rose 0.4 percent, following increases of 0.S percent in July and August. Prices increased for millwork, concrete products, fabricated structural metal products, and lighting fix-tures, while lower prices were registered for softwood lumber, plywood, asphalt roofing, and refractories.

    The durable manufacturing materials index advanced 1.2 percent, much more than in August. The September upward movement was led by sharp increases for silver, gold, platinum, and jewelers' materials. Prices also rose for lead, tin, and zinc. Among other intermediate non-food nonenergy goods, large advances occurred in prices for refrigerant compressors, internal combustion engines, bearings, and several kinds of machinery parts. On the other hand, prices for motor vehicle parts moved up much less than in August.

    The intermediate energy index moved up 0.6 per-cent, slightly more than in August. Electric power prices

    rose substantially, but prices edged down for residual fuel, diesel fuel, and liquefied petroleum gas.

    Crude materials The rate of increase for the Producer Price Index for

    Crude Materials for Further Processing decelerated to 1.3 percent in September on a seasonally adjusted basis, following a 5.7 percent rise in August. Foodstuff prices fell, following steep advances in both of the 2 preceding months; on the other hand, energy materials rose more than in any month since February, and prices for materials other than foods and energy continued to move up sharply.

    The index for crude foodstuffs and feedstuffs fell 0.4 percent, following advances of 9.0 percent in both July and August. Livestock prices declined, following 3 months of steep advances. Raw cane sugar prices decreased sharply, after rising almost 27 percent in the previous month, and prices for cocoa beans fell for the seventh consecutive month. In contrast, prices for soy-beans, grains, and live poultry climbed for the third consecutive month, and green coffee prices turned up after declining for 3 consecutive months.

    Prices for energy materials rose 2.S percent, following 4 months of increases between 1.0 and 1.5 percent. Most of this acceleration was caused by sharply higher prices for natural gas. Coal prices also moved up more than in most recent months, but crude petroleum prices increased much less than in August.

    The index for crude nonfood materials less energy rose 4.9 percent, after climbing 7.1 percent in July and 2.9 percent in August. Prices for iron and steel scrap climbed 14.S percent for the second consecutive month. Prices for cotton, aluminum base scrap, crushed stone, and crude natural rubber also moved up sharply. On the other hand, prices for hides and skins, wastepaper, and potash fell.

    1 Comprehensive relative importance figures are computed once each year in December. Data shown are expressed as a percent of total finished goods, total intermediate materials, or total crude materials. Data shown will not add up to 100.000 because not all commodity components of each stage-of-processing (SOP) Index are shown; relative importance figures shown account for about 87 percent of total finished goods, about 80 percent of total Intermediate materials, and about 96 percent of total crude materials. For each commodity component of the Finished Goods Index which Is allocated to both capital equipment and

    finished consumer goods excluding foods, the relative importance figure shown reflects only the share allocated to the SOP grouping under which it is listed. For example, the relative importance figure shown for household furniture under the SOP grouping for finished consumer goods excluding foods includes the share allocated to that SOP grouping but not the share allocated to capital equipment.

    * All data are subject to revision 4 months after original publication. * Not seasonally adjusted. 4 Not available.
