Price Movements
The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) rose 0.6 percent before seasonal adjustment
in August to 249.4 (1967=100). The Consumer Price
Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers
(CPI-W) also increased 0.6 percent before seasonal adjustment in August to 249.6 (1967=100). The GPI-U
was 12.8 percent higher and the CPI-W was 12.7 percent higher than in August 1979.
consecutive month. Egg prices rose 6.6 percent, following a 3.9 percent decline in July. The indexes for
fresh fruits and vegetables, non-alcoholic beverages, fats
and oils, and other prepared foods also registered substantial increases in August. Prices of the other two
components of the food and beverage index—restaurant meals and alcoholic beverages—rose 0.6 and 1.0
percent, respectively.
The housing index increased 0.1 percent in August,
following a 0,7 percent decline in July and substantially larger increases earlier this year. After decreasing
5.6 percent in July, home financing costs declined 2.8
percent in August, reflecting a 4.3 percent drop in mortgage interest rates and a rise of 1.7 percent in house
prices. The index for rent rose 0.6 percent, about the
same as in July. Prices for household fuels rose 0.5 percent, the smallest increase this year. Fuel oil prices continued the moderate rate of increase evident since April
and charges for natural gas and electricity advanced
less than in recent months. The index for household
furnishings and operations rose 0.5 percent in August,
about the same as in recent months.
The transportation component increased 0.9 percent
in August, the largest monthly advance since March.
New and used car prices rose 1.7 and 2.3 percent, respectively, and were primarily responsible for the increase. The index for public transportation rose 4,4 percent, reflecting large increases in airline, intracity mass
transit, intercity bus, and taxi fares. Gasoline prices declined for the fourth consecutive month. Automobile
finance charges, which had advanced sharply earlier
this year, declined for the third consecutive month.
CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U)—-seasonally
adjusted changes
On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI-U rose 0.7
percent in August. This increase followed no change
in July and an average monthly increase of 0.9 percent
during the second quarter of this year. About one-half
of the August increase was due to a sharp acceleration
in the food and beverage index, which rose 1.7 percent.
The housing component showed little change in August (0.1 percent increase), following a decline of 0.7
percent in July, as higher house prices and other housing costs offset a 4.3 percent decline in mortgage interest rates. The transportation component also accelerated in August, primarily reflecting price increases for
new and used cars. Other major components of consumer expenditures continued to advance at about the
same rate as in July.
Prices for grocery store foods rose 2.3 percent in
August, following a 1.2 percent increase in July and
much smaller increases earlier this year. The index for
meats, poultry, fish, and eggs rose 4.1 percent and accounted for about one-half of the increase. Beef, pork,
and poultry prices all advanced sharply for the second

The index for apparel and upkeep rose 0.6 percent in
August, compared with a 0.4 percent increase in July
The introduction of fall and winter clothing was largely responsible for the increase. Prices for other apparel
commodities rose sharply, primarily due to increases in
prices for jewelry. The index for apparel services rose

Workers (CPI-W)—seasonally adjusted changes
On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI-W rose 0.7
percent in August, following no change in July and an
average monthly increase of 0.9 percent during the second quarter this year. Almost one-half of the August
increase was due to a sharp acceleration in the food
and beverage index, which rose 1.7 percent. The housing component rose 0.2 percent in August, following a
decline of 0.7 percent in July, as increases in house
prices and other housing costs offset a 4.3 percent decline in mortgage interest rates. The transportation component also accelerated in August, primarily reflecting
price increases for new and used cars. Most other major components of consumer expenditures advanced
slightly more in August than in July.

Technical Notes
Brief Explanation of the CPI
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the
average change in prices over time in a fixed market
basket of goods and services. Effective with the January
1978 index, the Bureau of Labor Statistics began
publishing CPFs for two population groups: (1) a new
CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPX-U) which covers
approximately 80 percent of the total noninstitutional
civilian population; and (2) a revised CPI for Urban
Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) which
represents about half the population covered by the
CPI-U. The CPI-U includes, in addition to wage earners
and clerical workers, groups which historically have
been excluded from CPI coverage, such as professional,
managerial, and technical workers, the self-employed,
short-term workers, the unemployed, and retirees and
others not in the labor force.
The CPI is based on prices of food, clothing, shelter,
and fuels, transportation fares, charges for doctors' and
dentists' services, drugs, and the other goods and services that people buy for day-to-day living. Prices are
collected in 85 urban areas across the country from over
18,000 tenants, 18,000 housing units for property taxes,
and about 24,000 establishments—grocery and department stores, hospitals, filling stations, and other types
of stores and service establishments. All taxes directly
associated with the purchase and use of items are included in the index. Prices of food, fuels, and a few other
items are obtained every month in all 85 locations.
Prices of most other commodities and services are collected every month in the five largest geographic areas
and every other month in other areas. Prices of most
goods and services are obtained by personal visits of the
Bureau's trained representatives. Mail questionnaires
are used to obtain public utility rates, some fuel prices,
and certain other items.
In calculating the index, price changes for the various
items in each location are averaged together with
weights which represent their importance in the spending of the appropriate population group. Local data
are then combined to obtain a U.S. city average.
Separate indexes are also published for 28 local areas.
Area indexes do not measure differences in the level of
prices among cities; they only measure the average
change in prices for each area since the base period.
The index measures price changes from a designated
reference date—1967—which equals 100.0. An increase
of 22 percent, for example, is shown as 122.0. This
change can also be expressed in dollars as follows: The
price of a base period "market basket" of goods and
services in the CPI has risen from $10 in 1967 to $12.20.
For further details see the following: The Consumer
Price Index: Concepts and Content Over the Years,
Report 517, revised edition (Bureau of Labor Statistics,
May 1978); The Revision of the Consumer Price Index,
by W. John Layng, reprinted from the Statistical
Reporter, February 1978, No. 78-5 (U.S. Dept. of Commerce), and Revisions in the Medical Care Service component of the Consumer Price Index, by Daniel H.
Ginsburg, Monthly Labor Review, August 1978.
Calculating Index Changes
Movements of the 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 example in
the accompanying box illustrates the computation of index point and percent changes.
Percent changes for 3-month and 6-month periods are
expressed as annual rates and 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
publishes seasonally adjusted as well as unadjusted
changes each month.
For analyzing general price trends in the economy,
seasonally adjusted changes are usually preferred since
they eliminate the effect of changes that normally occur
at the same time and in about the same magnitude every
year—such as price movements resulting from changing
climatic conditions, production cycles, model
changeovers, holidays, and sales.
The unadjusted data are of primary interest to consumers concerned about the prices they actually pay.
Unadjusted data are also used extensively for escalation
purposes. Many collective bargaining contract
agreements and pension plans, for example, tie compensation changes to the Consumer Price Index unadjusted
for seasonal variation.
Seasonal factors used to compute the seasonally adjusted indexes are derived by the X-ll Variant of the
Census Method II Seasonal Adjustment Program. Annual updates replace 5 years of seasonal data, e.g., data
from 1976 through 1980 will be replaced at the end of
1980. The seasonal movement of all items and 35 other
aggregations is derived by combining the seasonal
movement of 45 selected components.
Explanation of
Homeownership Measures
Official CPI-U includes five components.(1) The
weights for property taxes, property insurance, and
home maintenance and repairs represent expenditures
of all homeowners in the base period. The weights for
house prices and contracted mortgage interest cost
represent only those homeowners who actually purchased a home in the base period. Included are the total
price paid for the home, and the total amount of interest
expected to be paid over half the Stated life of the mortgage. (2) Current monthly prices are used for each of
these components.
Experimental Measure X-l: (1) The weight for this
rental equivalence measure is the estimate of the rental
value of all owner-occupied homes in th$ base period
compiled from a specific question asked on the 1972-73
Consumer Expenditure Survey. This covers the entire
stock of owned homes. (2) Prices used are the current
rents collected for the residential rent component of the
CPI. The CPI rent component is designed to represent
changes in residential rents for all types of housing
units, not just changes in rents for units that are typically owner occupied. The CPI rent component is,
therefore, not appropriate for this measure.
Experimental Measure X-2: (1) The weight for this
user cost method includes expenditures for mortgage interest, property taxes, property insurance, maintenance
and repairs, the estimated base-period cost of
homeowners' equity in their houses, and the offset to
shelter costs resulting from the estimated appreciation
of house values in the base period. This measure covers
the entire stock of owned houses. To derive the weights
for mortgage interest costs and equity costs, the total
value of the housing stock in the base period was apportioned into its debt and equity components. The debt
component equals the amount owed and the equity
component is the amount owned, i.e., payments on
principal plus appreciation from the time of purchase to
the base period. Each component was subsequently
multiplied by the average mortgage interest rate in the
base period to determine its cost. (2) Prices used are current ones except for the appreciation term which uses a
5-year moving average of the changes in appreciation
rates.
Experimental Measure X-3: (1) The weights are the
same as in Experimental Measure X-2, except that mortgage interest costs are calculated as the total interest
amount pa id out by homeowners in the base period. As
in X-l and in X-2, this measure covers the entire
homeowners population. (2) The prices for all components except mortgage interest costs and appreciation
are current monthly prices. As in X-2, appreciation is
represented by a 5-year moving average of the changes
in house prices. However, X-3, uses past and current
mortgage interest costs in a. 15-year weighted moving
average, which reflects the base period age distribution
of mortgage loans.
Experimental Measure X-4: The weights for this
outlays approach include expenditures actually made in
the base period for property taxes, property insurance,
maintenance, and repairs. The weight for the mortgage
interest term is calculated in the same manner as in X-2.
However, no appreciation or equity terms are included.
Not all homeowners are represented in this measure
because those who made no mortgage debt payment in
the base period are excluded. (2) The prices used for
each of these items are current ones.
Experimental Measure X-5: (1) The weights for this
outlays approach include, as in X-4, expenditures actually made in the base period for property taxes, propperty insurance, maintenance, and repairs. The weight
for the mortgage interest cost term is the same as for the
X-3. No appreciation or equity elements are used. As in
X-4, not all homeowners are represented in this measure
because those who made no mortgage debt payment in
the base period are excluded. (2) Current prices are used
in X-5 except for mortgage interest which uses the
15-year moving average also used in the X-3.
