Price Movements
December 1981

The Producer Price Index for Finished Goods moved
up 0.3 percent from November to December on a
seasonally adjusted basis. The December rise followed
increases of 0.5 and 0.6 percent in November and October. The intermediate goods index rose 0.4 percent,
about the same as in the previous month. Crude
material prices dropped 1.3 percent, the fifth consecutive monthly decline (table A).
Among finished goods, the index for consumer goods
other than foods and energy showed no change, in contrast to the substantial advances recorded in both of the
2 preceding months. Price indexes for capital equipment
and finished energy goods continued to rise, although
not as much as in November. Prices for finished consumer foods showed a slight rise following 3 months of
small decreases.
Before seasonal adjustment, the Producer Price Index
for Finished Goods moved up 0.3 percent to end the

year at 275.3 (1967 = 100). From December 1980 to
December 1981, the Finished Goods Price Index rose
7.0 percent, considerably less than the 11.8 percent
jump in 1980. The deceleration was broad-based.
Although the 14.3 percent climb in the finished energy
goods index was much larger than the increases
registered for other major categories of finished goods
in 1981, it was still far less than the 27.8 percent surge
this index recorded in 1980. Energy prices advanced
rapidly early in 1981 but then registered much smaller
increases or moderate declines during the rest of the
year. Consumer food prices rose only 1.5 percent in
1981, following a 7.5 percent advance during the
previous year. The upward movement in the index for
finished consumer goods other than foods and energy
slowed from 10.4 percent in 1980 to 6.9 percent in 1981.
The capital equipment index showed a less pronounced
deceleration, slowing to a 9.2 percent rise from an 11.4

Data for August 1981 have been revised to reflect the availability of
late reports and corrections by respondents. For this reason some of the
figures shown above and elsewhere in this report may differ from those

percent climb in 1980. Prices for intermediate materials
rose about half as much in 1981 (6.1 percent) as in the
preceding year (12.6 percent), and crude materials turned down with a 3.7 percent drop, following a 12.8 percent climb in 1980.
Finished goods
Finished consumer goods. The Producer Price Index for
finished consumer goods moved up 0.2 percent on a
seasonally adjusted basis in December, following a 0.5
percent increase in November. The index for finished
consumer goods less foods and energy registered no
change, after rising 0.8 percent a month earlier. Prices
turned down for cosmetics, dinnerware, glassware, and
alcoholic beverages. Increases were recorded for a
broad range of other products, including passenger
cars, soaps and detergents, books, costume jewelry, and
over-the-counter drugs.
The finished energy goods index rose 0.7 percent,
somewhat less than the 0.9 percent advance in
November. Although the gasoline index moved down,
home heating oil prices turned up after declining for
several months. Prices for natural gas rose 3.6 percent,
following a 2.1 percent rise in November.
The consumer foods index edged up 0.1 percent,
following 3 consecutive modest declines. Prices for
fresh and dried vegetables soared nearly 22 percent,
after falling sharply in each of the previous 3 months.

Beef and veal prices were virtually unchanged after
decreasing 3.2 percent in both October and November.
On the other hand, prices declined even more than in
November for pork, eggs, processed poultry, and milled
rice. Prices rose much less than in the previous month
for refined sugar, soft drinks, and flour base mixes and
doughs. Fresh fruit prices were virtually unchanged
after an 18.3 percent advance in November.
Capital equipment. The Producer Price Index for
capital equipment advanced 0.6 percent, somewhat less
than the 0.8 percent rise in November. Price increases
slowed markedly for railroad equipment, truck trailers,
industrial process furnaces and ovens, oilfield and
gasfield machinery, agricultural machinery, machine
tools, and pumps. Price indexes turned down after rising in November for aircraft and transformers. On the
other hand, price increases accelerated for construction
machinery, printing trades machinery, and mining
machinery.
Intermediate materials
The Producer Price Index for Intermediate Materials,
Supplies, and Components rose 0.4 percent from
November to December on a seasonally adjusted basis,
about the same as in the previous month. The
movements of most intermediate goods categories were
quite similar to those in November.

The nondurable manufacturing materials index edged
up 0.2 percent. Higher prices for plastic resins, inedible
fats and oils, synthetic fibers, and leather were largely
offset by decreases for industrial chemicals, finished
fabrics, and nitrogenates. The index for durable
manufacturing materials likewise rose 0.2 percent.
Although higher prices were recorded for aluminum
sheets and plates, prices fell for most other nonferrous
metals.
The index for construction materials advanced 0.6
percent, somewhat more than in either of the 2
preceding months. Prices moved up for millwork,
plywood, softwood lumber, concrete products, switchgear and switchboards, plastic construction products,
and heating equipment. In contrast, prices declined for
building paper and board and for copper wire and
cable.
Large increases were recorded for several items in the
manufacturing components category, such as metal
automotive stampings, plastic parts and components,
fluid power equipment, and mechanical power
transmission equipment. In other categories, prices rose
for rubber hose, but decreased for mixed fertilizers and
laminated plastic sheets.
The intermediate energy index moved up 0.6 percent.
Higher prices for electric power and diesel fuel were
partly offset by reduced prices for residual fuel, commercial jet fuel, and gasoline. The intermediate foods
and feeds index moved down 0.3 percent, following 3
months of much sharper declines. Prices fell for flour
and confectionery materials, but rose for refined sugar
used in food manufacturing.

Crude materials
The Producer Price Index for Crude Materials for
Further Processing declined 1.3 percent on a seasonally
adjusted basis, about the same as in November. The index for foodstuffs and feedstuffs moved down 2.5 percent, the fourth consecutive monthly decline of about
that size. Prices for cattle and corn moved down
somewhat more than in the previous month. Hog prices
fell 9.0 percent after rising slightly in November. Prices
for fluid milk, oilseeds, and hay also decreased but less
than in November. On the other hand, prices for raw
cane sugar moved up sharply for the third consecutive
month. Cocoa beans prices rose almost 6 percent, in
contrast to an 11.4 percent drop in the preceding month.
Green coffee bean prices also moved up but far less than
the surge of nearly 14 percent in November.
The index for crude nonfood materials other than
energy moved down 2.5 percent, somewhat less than the
3.2 percent decline in the previous month. Prices for
scrap metals, wastepaper, and cotton fell but less than
in November. On the other hand, prices for cattle hides
rose 6.1 percent, after falling in each of the 2 previous
months. Prices for crude natural rubber rebounded with
an advance of 8.4 percent, after falling in almost every
month in the past year. Prices for sand and gravel, iron
ore, and potash also rose.
The crude energy materials index rose 1.3 percent,
after moving up 0.5 percent in November. Prices for
natural gas increased 3.6 percent, substantially more
than in the previous month. Coal prices continued to
rise moderately, and crude petroleum prices edged up
0.2 percent.

Postponement of Rebasing of Producer Price Indexes
Because of severe budget constraints, the Bureau of Labor Statistics will not be able to carry out by January
1982 the Government directive to rebase the Producer Price Index to the new U.S. Government 1977 = 100
reference base. Postponement is required because of the high cost of both the direct production work
necessary to prepare the data and the information services to explain the change.

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 89
percent of total finished goods, about 88 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

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

Changes in Methodology of
Calculating Regional
Bituminous Coal Price
Indexes

Effective with the release of January 1982 Producer
Price Indexes in February, indexes for bituminous coal
by region will be calculated in accordance with the
methodology of the Producer Price Index Revision program. Substantially expanded coverage and the use of
probability sampling techniques are among the principal
benefits of this change in methodology.
As a result, indexes for bituminous coal by region
which now appear in table 8 will be discontinued after
the December 1981 issue of Producer Prices and Price
Indexes. Data for new regional bituminous coal indexes,
on a base of December 1981 = 100, will appear in table
4, 4 'Producer price indexes for the net output of selected
industries and their products," starting with the
January 1982 issue. That issue will also list new indexes

in table 4 corresponding to indexes previously appearing
in table 8.
Even though all regional bituminous coal indexes currently in table 8 are to be discontinued, tables of
historical data on a December 1981 = 100 base for these
indexes will be available from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics on request. These tables should be especially
useful for those firms which have been using table 8 indexes to implement escalation clauses of long-term
business contracts.
For further information, please write: Mr. Thomas
R. Tibbetts, Assistant Commissioner for Industrial
Prices and Price Indexes, Bureau of Labor Statistics,
600 E Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20212.

NOTE: The index is designed to measure c h a n g e s 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 c o m m o d i t i e s under specified and unchanging conditions.
The index is not intended to measure changes in railroad revenue or
shipper costs that result from changes in services or mode.

Introduction of U.S. Postal
Service Indexes

Publication of producer price indexes for the U.S.
Postal Service (USPS) and its major services begins with
this issue of Producer Prices and Price Indexes (table
16). Included in this issue are historical indexes from
January 1977 to the present (table 17). These indexes are
designed to measure changes in the prices charged by
USPS to all users of its services. Unlike the Consumer
Price Index for postal services, which measures prices
paid by households, these indexes measure prices received by USPS for services to business and government
users, as well as to final consumers.
Prices used to calculate these indexes are derived from
rates in effect on the 15th of the index month, obtained
from the USPS publication, Postal Bulletin, and from
other official USPS sources. The classification of services is based on the Standard Industrial Classification
(SIC). The 5-digit and 7-digit product index classification was developed by BLS based on the traditional
classification scheme of USPS. The relative importance
of each 5-digit and 7-digit product index, based on
December 1981 value weights, is included in table 16.
Brief definitions of the services included in each index
series follow. These definitions are derived from highly
detailed legal definitions contained in the U.S. Postal
Rate Commission's recommeded domestic mail
classification schedule, Docket No. MC76-5, Opinion
and Recommended Decision, Volume 2, Nov. 29, 1978.
First class mail, 4311-1, is any matter eligible for mailing which is sealed against postal inspection and which
is wholly or partially in handwriting or typewriting. It
is divided into three components: Letter mail, 4311-111,
which is limited to 12 ounces; post cards, 4311-112,
which may not exceed the dimensions 6 in. by 4.25 in.
by .0095 in.; and priority mail, 4311-113, which is first
class mail weighing from 12 ounces to 70 pounds.
Second class mail, 4311-2, consists of newspapers or
other periodicals which must be issued at least four
times per year, be formed of printed sheets, have a
known office of publication and a legitimate list of
subscribers, and be originated to disseminate information of a public character. It includes six components:
In-county mail, 4311-211, which is mailed and delivered
in the county where published; regular rate mail,




4311-212, all second class mail not qualifying for incounty, nonprofit, classroom, or transient status; nonprofit rate mail, 4311-213, which must be entered by
authorized nonprofit organizations; classroom rate
mail, 4311-214, which consists of religious, educational,
or scientific publications designed for use in school
classrooms; transient rate mail, 4311-215, which is forwarded or returned mail originated by persons other
than publishers or by publishers to persons not included
on mailing lists; and controlled circulation rate mail,
4311-216, which must have at least 24 pages, be issued at
least four times per year, not be owned or controlled by
one or more individuals or businesses, devote at least 25
percent of pages to nonadvertising, and be circulated
free.
Third class mail, 4311-3, is any mail weighing less than
16 ounces which is not mailed as first or second class
mail. It is divided into three components: Single piece
mail, 4311-311; regular bulk mail, 4311-312, which consists of properly prepared and presorted pieces of identical size and weight in quantities of not less than 50 lbs.
or of 200 or more pieces; and nonprofit bulk mail,
4311-313, which is regular bulk mail originated by an
authorized nonprofit organization.
Fourth class mail, 4311-4, is mail weighing 16 ounces or
more and not mailed as first or second class mail. It includes four subclasses: Parcel post, 4311-411, which is
any fourth class mail not qualifying as special, library,
or bound printed matter; bound printed matter,
4311-412, which is fourth class mail weighing not more
than 10 lbs. and which consists of advertising, promotional, directory, or editorial material; special rate mail,
4311-413, which includes books, films, printed music,
records, manuscripts, and medical information; and
4311-414, library rate mail, which is matter loaned or
exchanged between schools, public libraries, museums,
and various nonprofit organizations.
International mail, 4311-5, consists of mail between
countries. It has three major components: International
air mail, 4311-511, which includes all international mail
receiving high priority service; international surface
mail, 4311-512, which is all types of international mail

assigned low priority service; and terminal dues and
transit fees, 4311-513, which are compensation received
for handling incoming mail from foreign postal
authorities.
Special services and fees, 4311-6, consists of three
subclasses: Special services, 4311-611, which include
C.O.D., return receipt requested, restricted delivery,
registry, special delivery, certified mail, insured mail,
money orders, stamped envelopes, and postal lock
boxes; domestic mail fees, 4311-612, which consist of
business reply mail, address correction, dead letter
return, certificates of mailing, parcel air lift, special
handling and pre-sort mail permits; and 4311-613, other
services and fees, which include permit imprint fees, onsite postage meter setting fees, and ZIP code sorting of
mailing lists.
Other services or sources of USPS revenue are: Public
service appropriation, 4311-911, the annual authorization by Congress, which is treated as a contribution
toward institutional costs, since the appropriation supports no specific service output; express mail, 4311-912,
high priority, guaranteed and insured delivery of pieces
of mail weighing up to 70 lbs.; and mailgram service,
4311-913, the next day delivery of a telegram-formatted
message sent electronically to the addressee's local post
office.
The public service appropriation was included in the




USPS price index for two reasons. An industry output
price index properly includes all revenues which support
the output of goods and services of that industry. The
public service appropriation provides revenue which
supports, in general, the output of all USPS services,
thereby augmenting the revenue generated from the explicit sale of each specific service. In the absence of this
appropriation, the price of all or some of USPS services
would have to be higher to call forth the same level of
output. Moreover, the law which established the USPS
calls for a gradual reduction of the public service appropriation from fiscal year 1981 through fiscal year
1985. If this appropriation were not included in the
USPS price index, index levels as well as percent increases would be overstated during this period. Public
service appropriation, 4311-911, has been specifically
identified to enable users to track the appropriation's
impact on the USPS price index.
The U.S. Postal Service index is based upon the
universe of USPS service prices and is calculated from a
modified Laspeyres formula similar to that used for
other service industry price indexes.
More detailed information on the methodology used
to develop indexes for the USPS may be obtained on request from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Office of
Prices and Living Conditions, Division of Industrial
Prices and Price Indexes, 600 E Street, N.W., Room
5210, Washington, D.C. 20212.

Technical Notes

Brief Explanation of
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 indexes 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. Consumer 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 further processing before they become finished goods. Examples of such semifinished goods include flour, cotton
yarns, steel mill products, belts and belting, lumber, liquefied petroleum gas, paper boxes, and motor vehicle
parts.




Crude materials for further processing include products entering the market for the first time which have
not been manufactured or fabricated but will be processed before becoming finished goods. Scrap materials
are also included. Crude foodstuffs and feedstuffs include 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-ofprocessing indexes are more useful than commodity
grouping indexes. This is because commodity grouping
indexes sometimes produce exaggerated or misleading
signals of price change by reflecting the same price
movement through various stages of processing. For example, suppose that a price rise for steel scrap results in
an increase in the price of steel sheet and then an advance 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 structure for the All Commodities Index uses the total shipment values for all commodities at all stages of processing. On the other hand, the Finished Goods Price Index
would reflect the change in automobile prices, the Intermediate 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 illustration.)
To the extent possible, prices used in calculating producer price indexes apply to the first significant commercial transaction in the United States, from the production or central marketing point. Price data are
generally collected monthly, primarily by mail questionnaire. 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 directly from producing companies on a voluntary and confidential basis, but some prices are taken from trade
publications or from other Government agencies. Prices
generally are reported for the Tuesday of the week containing 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-ofprocessing groupings, commodity groupings, durability
of product groupings, and a number of special composite 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 125 percent from the reference
period in the Finished Goods Price Index, for example,
is shown as 225.0. This change can also be expressed in
dollars, as follows: "The price of a representative sample 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 indexin relation
to its base period, while percent changes are not. The
box shows the computation of index point and percent
changes.
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.

Seasonally Adjusted
and Unadjusted Data

Because price data are used for different purposes by
different groups, the Bureau of Labor Statistics published 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

every year—such as price movements resulting from normal weather patterns, regular production and marketing
cycles, model changeovers, seasonal discounts, and
holidays. For this reason, seasonally adjusted 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 Revision
Each month this report presents data from the Producer 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 subproducts (9-digit level); and, for some industries, indexes for other sources of revenue. Thus, table 4 shows
all official indexes arising from the ongoing PPI revision. By 1985, table 4 will cover all 493 SIC mining and
manufacturing industries.
Traditional commodity price indexes and IndustrySector 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 indexes to show changes in prices received by
establishments classified in the industry for products
primary to some other industry. Finally, some industries




have miscellaneous 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 distinction 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 5-digit Census 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, index levels for corresponding items may differ, but monthly 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 into commodity grouping indexes in table 6 continues to
follow the traditional methodology; similarly, stage-ofprocessing 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 indexes 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 IndustrySector Price Indexes continue to be calculated from
these traditional commodity indexes. In addition, traditional 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 indexes apply to production within the specified industry.
As data from more mining and manufacturing industries become available, additional indexes will be
constructed to cover each product regardless of the industry of origin.

(2) New indexes are easier to use with other industryoriented economic data because they are classified according 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 intraindustry 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 indexes. 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
5-digit product class and 4-digit industry levels,
however, weights are taken from Census of Manufactures 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 addition, some traditional indexes have been calculated intentionally from order prices rather than from shipment
prices.
(5) New indexes are based on prices reported by companies of all sizes and locations selected by probability
sampling. In addition, individual items and transaction
terms from these firms are chosen by probability techniques. (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 4'typical'' transaction terms.

and methodology of the PPI revision, see two Monthly
Labor Review articles by John F. Early: "Improving the
Measurement of Producer Price Change," April 1978;
