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.

* Standard Transportation Commodity Code. 1 The price index for total railroad freight also includes STCC groups not

shown separately. * The figure shown for each item is its percent of total railroad freight. 4 Dec. 1978-100. * Indexes marked "r" are revised to correct pricing errors in July and August.

NOTE: The index is designed to measure changes in the prices of shipping goods by rail in the United States. The representative prices and sample used for the index reflect the railroads' prices for shipping a fixed set of com-modities under specified and unchanging conditions. The index is not intend-ed to measure changes in railroad revenue or shipper costs that result from changes in services or mode.

New Sample for Telecommunications Services

Publication of producer price indexes for the major product lines of the telephone communications industry commences with this issue of Producer Prices and Price Indexes and will appear each month in table 15. Includ-ed in this issue are historical indexes from January 1972 to the present. (See table 16.) These indexes, part of the broader program to develop output price indexes for selected service industries, are designed to measure changes in the prices charged by producers of telecom-munications services to those outside the industry. Unlike the Consumer Price Index for telephone services, which only measures prices paid by consumers, these in-dexes measure prices received by telephone companies for services to both business and residential users.

Prices used in the calculation of these indexes are the rates in effect on the 15th of the index month, obtained directly from the local operating companies and long-distance carriers. Prices are net of all taxes.

The classification of services is based upon the Stand-ard Industrial Classification (SIC). The 5-digit, 7-digit, and 9-digit product index classifications were developed by BLS as a supplement to the SIC. Product indexes will be aggregated to produce a 4-digit index for the telecom-munications industry as soon as indexes for the remain-ing product areas are complete. The indexes now being published account for approximately 70 percent of the 1972 revenues of the telephone industry. Once indexes are available for all products, information on relative importance of components will be published.

A brief definition of the services included in each in-dex series follows.

Local service 4811-1. This index measures changes in the prices of services offered to business and residential users in the local calling area. It is divided into three components: 4811-111, business flat-rate monthly

charges; 4811-112» residential flat-rate monthly charges; and 4811-113, optional additional usage. The first two components measure changes for unlimited usage by those with flat-rate telephone services and for the initial prepaid usage by those with message-rated service. The charges also include rental of one telephone equipped with either dial or touchtone capability and transmis-sion charges for those with touchtone service. The last component measures changes in prices for optional ad-ditional usage beyond the message unit allowance and for optional extended area service.

Toll service 4811-2. The message toll services (MTS) components of these series measure changes in prices for calls between local calling areas. The intrastate MTS index measures price changes for MTS usage within states; interstate MTS, between states; and international MTS, between the United States and other countries. Index series for Wide Area Telecommunications Ser-vices (WATS) measure changes in prices for both access and usage of WATS lines to interstate and intrastate customers. The intrastate WATS index measures price change for these services within states, whereas the in-terstate WATS index measures price change for services to and/or from the service areas that comprise the 48 continental states.

Directory advertising 4811-911. This index measures changes in the prices of advertising space in telephone directories; the unit of output includes both the type of ad purchased and the number of directory copies in which it is distributed.

Additional indexes to be developed will cover private leased lines, equipment leasing (including extension phones), nonrecurring charges (such as installation

charges), and secondary production such as telegraph services.

The telecommunications indexes are based on prob-ability samples. The local service and directory advertis-ing components involved a sample of operating com-panies. Subsamples of services were selected within each of these components. Samples for toll indexes included samples of countries (international MTS), of states (in-trastate MTS and intrastate WATS) and of toll calls (in-terstate and intrastate MTS). Revenue data for 1972, obtained from companies and from other sources such as publications of the Federal Communications Com-mission and the United States Independent Telephone Association, were used in developing the samples and the weights used in the index. The indexes are calculated from a modified Laspeyres formula similar to that used for other BLS price indexes.

Adjustments are made to the time series to account for quality variation. For example, when a telephone company introduces non-optional extended area service (EAS) in a local calling area, the effect is to increase both the charge for the service and the number of telephones that a subscriber may reach at the flat mon-thly charge. The month prior to the occurrence of EAS and the month in which it occurs are linked together in such a way as to prevent this change in service from be-ing reflected in the index as only a price change. Similar adjustments are made in the directory advertising series to account for quality variation in the size of ads, which are sometimes reduced to conserve paper.

More detailed information on the methodology used to develop indexes for the telecommunications industry may be obtained by request from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Office of Prices and Living Conditions, Divi-sion of Industrial Prices and Price Indexes, Washington, D.C. 20212.

Technical Notes

Brief Explanation off Producer Price Indexes

Producer price indexes measure average changes in prices received in primary markets of the United States by producers of commodities in all stages of processing. These data were previously presented as the Wholesale Price Index. The name "Producer Price Indexes" is now being used to reflect more accurately the coverage of the data. The sample used for calculating these in-dexes continues to contain nearly 2,800 commodities and about 10,000 quotations selected to represent the movement of prices of all commodities produced in the manufacturing, agriculture, forestry, fishing, mining, gas and electricity, and public utilities sectors. The universe includes all commodities produced or imported for sale in commercial transactions in primary markets in the United States.

Producer price indexes can be organized by stage of processing or by commodity. The stage-of-processing structure organizes products by degree of fabrication (i.e., finished goods, intermediate or semifinished goods, and crude materials). The commodity structure organizes products by similarity of end-use or material composition.

Finished goods are commodities that will not undergo further processing and are ready for sale to the ultimate user, either an individual consumer or a business firm. Capital equipment (formerly called producer finished goods) includes commodities such as motor trucks, farm equipment, and machine tools. Finished consumer goods include foods and other types of goods eventually purchased by retailers and used by consumers. Con-sumer foods include unprocessed foods such as eggs and fresh vegetables, as well as processed foods such as bakery products and meats. Other finished consumer goods include durables such as automobiles, household furniture, and jewelry, and nondurables such as apparel and gasoline.

Intermediate materials, supplies, and components are commodities that have been processed but require fur-ther processing before they become finished goods. Ex-amples of such semifinished goods include flour, cotton yarns, steel mill products, belts and belting, lumber, li-

quefied petroleum gas, paper boxes, and motor vehicle parts.

Crude materials for further processing include prod-ucts entering the market for the first time which have not been manufactured or fabricated but will be pro-cessed before becoming finished goods. Scrap materials are also included. Crude foodstuffs and feedstuffs in-clude items such as grains and livestock. Examples of crude nonfood materials include raw cotton, crude petroleum, natural gas, hides and skins, and iron and steel scrap.

For analysis of general price trends, stage-of-processing indexes are more useful than commodity grouping indexes. This is because commodity grouping indexes sometimes produce exaggerated or misleading signals of price changes by reflecting the same price movement through various stages of processing. For ex-ample, suppose that a price rise for steel scrap results in an increase in the price of steel sheet and then an ad-vance in prices of automobiles produced from that steel. The All Commodities Price Index and the Industrial Commodities Price Index would reflect the same price movement three times—once for the steel scrap, once for the steel sheet, and once for the automobiles. This multiple counting occurs because the weighting struc-ture for the All Commodities Index uses the total ship-ment values for all commodities at all stages of process-ing. On the other hand, the Finished Goods Price Index would reflect the change in automobile prices, the In-termediate Materials Price Index would reflect the steel sheet price change, and the Crude Materials Price Index would reflect the rise in the price of steel scrap. (See il-lustration.)

To the extent possible, prices used in calculating pro-ducer price indexes apply to the first significant com-mercial transaction in the United States, from the pro-duction or central marketing point. Price data are generally collected monthly, primarily by mail question-naire. Respondents are asked to provide net prices or to provide all applicable discounts. BLS attempts to base producer price indexes on actual transaction prices; however, list or book prices are used if transaction prices are not available. Most prices are obtained direct-ly from producing companies on a voluntary and con-fidential basis, but some prices are taken from trade publications or from other Government agencies. Prices

generally are reported for the Tuesday of the week con-taining the 13th day of the month.

In calculating producer price indexes, price changes for the various commodities are averaged together with weights representing their importance in the total net selling value of all commodities as of 1972. The detailed data are aggregated to obtain indexes for stage-of-processing groupings, commodity groupings, durability of product groupings, and a number of special com-posite groupings. Each index measures price changes from a reference period which equals 100.0 (usually 1967, as designated by the Office of Management and Budget). An increase of 12S percent from the reference period in the Finished Goods Price Index, for example, is shown as 22S.0. This change can also be expressed in dollars, as follows: "The price of a representative sam-ple of finished goods sold in primary markets in the United States has risen from $100 in 1967 to $225."

Calculating Index Changes

Movements of price indexes from one month to another are usually expressed as percent changes rather than changes in index points because index point changes are affected by the level of the index in relation to its base period, while percent changes are not. The box shows the computation of index point and percent changes.

index Point Change Finished Goods Price Index I8S.S less previous index I84.S equals index point change 1.0

index Percent Change Index point change » 1.0 divided by the previous index I84.S equals 0.005 result multiplied by 100' 0.005 x 100 equals index percent change 0.5

Percent changes for 3-month and 6-month periods are expressed as annual rates that are computed according to the standard formula for compound growth rates. These data indicate what the percent change would be if the current rate were maintained for a 12-month period.

Seasonally Adjusted and Unadjusted Data

Because price data are used for different purposes by different groups, the Bureau of Labor Statistics publish-ed seasonally adjusted as well as unadjusted changes each month.

For analyzing general price trends in the economy, seasonally adjusted data usually are preferred because they eliminate the effect of changes that normally occur at about the same time and in about the same magnitude

74

every year—such as price movements resulting from normal weather patterns, regular production and marketing cycles, model changeovers, seasonal dis-counts, and holidays, For this reason, seasonally ad-justed data more clearly reveal the underlying cyclical trends. Seasonally adjusted data are subject to revision when seasonal factors are revised each year.

The unadjusted data are of primary interest to users who need information which can be related to the actual dollar values of transactions. Individuals requiring this information include marketing specialists, purchasing agents, budget and cost analysts, contract specialists, and commodity traders. Unadjusted data generally are used in escalating contracts such as purchase agreements or real estate leases.

Data from the Producer Price Index Revielon

Each month this report presents data from the Pro-ducer Price Index (PPI) revision in table 4, "Producer price indexes for the net output of selected industries and their products." Indexes for the four industries in the pilot program to test the methodology and concepts of the PPI revision formerly appeared in table 14. Table 4 includes data for additional Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) industries (4-digit level) and Census products (7-digit level); indexes for Census product classes (5- and 6-digit levels) and more detailed sub-products (9-digit level); and, for some industries, in-dexes for other sources of revenue. Thus, table 4 shows all official indexes arising from the ongoing PPI revi-sion. By 198S, table 4 will cover all 493 SIC mining and manufacturing industries.

Traditional commodity price indexes and Industry-Sector Price Indexes (ISPI's) will continue to be published. In 1983, however, an entirely new structure will replace the traditional commodity structure as the primary vehicle for releasing and analyzing price changes at the primary market level.

Kinds of product indexes Industries listed in table 4 may be represented by one

to three kinds of product indexes. Every industry has primary product indexes to show changes in prices received by establishments classified in the industry for products made primarily, but not exclusively, within that industry. To be classified in an industry, an establishment must have a plurality of its total shipment value accounted for by primary products. In addition, some industries also may have secondary product in-dexes to show changes in prices received by establishments classified in the industry for products

primary to some other industry. Finally, some industries have miscellanous receipts indexes to show price changes in other sources of revenue received by establishments within the industry which are not derived from the sale of their products. Because of the distinc-tion between primary and secondary products, an index for a product made in one industry may differ from the index for the same product made in another industry.

Corresponding indexes Some 7-digit Census products published in table 4

correspond to 8-digit commodities published in table 6. Similarly, some 4-digit SIC industries and S-digit Cen-sus product classes in table 4 correspond to the ISPI's in tables 11, 12, and 13. In these cases, movements in the commodity or Industry-Sector Price Indexes are calculated on the basis of the movements of their counterparts in table 4. Although most such indexes continue to be published in tables, 6, 11, or 13 on their original base period of 1967 = 100 or some later base, the corresponding indexes in table 4 are published on a base of the month of their introduction. Therefore, in-dex levels for corresponding items may differ, but mon-thly percent changes will be identical.

A point code of ".99" immediately after an 8-digit commodity code in table 6 identifies a commodity index that is calculated from a product index in table 4. A footnote after the industry or product class title in tables 11, 12, or 13 indicates an ISPI based on an index from table 4. The aggregation of commodity price indexes in-to commodity grouping indexes in table 6 continues to follow the traditional methodology; similarly, stage-of-processing price indexes in table 1 also are calculated from the commodity grouping indexes as in the past.

How new indexes differ from traditional commodity indexes

New indexes differ from traditional commodity in-dexes in a number of respects:

(1) New indexes are industry-based. The entire output of each industry is sampled, including primary and secondary production and miscellaneous receipts. Traditional commodity indexes are based on a selection of the most important commodities, and most Industry-Sector Price Indexes continue to be calculated from these traditional commodity indexes. In addition, tradi-tional ISPI's do not cover miscellaneous receipts, and prices of products are included without systematic regard for the industry classification of the producer. New indexes, on the other hand, are based on prices of primary and secondary products made by producers classified in the specified industry; as a result, new in-dexes apply to production within the specified industry. As data from more mining and manufacturing in-dustries become available, additional indexes will be

75

constructed to cover each product regardless of the in-dustry of origin.

(2) New indexes are easier to use with other industry-oriented economic data because they are classified ac-cording to the SIC and incorporate most features of the Census of Manufactures product code extensions of the SIC.

(3) New indexes use net output values of shipments as weights. Net output values refer to the value of shipments leaving the industry and exclude intra-industry shipments. In contrast, weights in traditional commodity price indexes and ISPI's include shipments within an industry. The resulting multiple-counting of price changes at successive stages of processing is one major defect of the traditional commodity grouping in-dexes. Stage-of-processing indexes partially correct this defect, but new indexes consistently correct it at all levels of aggregation. (Net output weights are not used, however, for traditional commodity indexes whose movements are based on corresponding new indexes.)

In the revision program, the relative importance of items within a product is based upon shipment value data and sampling weights from the revision survey itself. When detailed products are aggregated to the S-digit product class and 4-digit industry levels, however, weights are taken from Census of Manufac-tures data, along with estimates of intra-industry

shipments from input-output tables produced by the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the U.S. Department of Commerce.

(4) New indexes emphasize actual transaction prices at the time of shipment to minimize the use of list prices and order prices, which occasionally have been used in traditional commodity price indexes and ISPI's. In ad-dition, some traditional indexes have been calculated in-tentionally from order prices rather than from shipment prices.

(5) New indexes are based on prices reported by com-panies of all sizes and locations selected by probability sampling. In addition, individual items and transaction terms from these Arms are chosen by probability tech-niques. (Estimates of sampling error will be published later.) In the traditional PPI program, major companies selected on a judgment basis have been asked to report prices for volume-selling items under "typical" transac-tion terms.

Early: "Improving the Measurement of Producer Price Change," April 1978; and "The Producer Price Index Revision: Overview and Pilot Survey Results," December 1979.
