The All Items experimental measure using a rental equivalence approach (CPI-U, X-l) increased 0.3 percent to 258.0. The Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) increased 0.3 percent before seasonal adjustment in February to 282.9. Compared with their levels in February 1981, the CPI-U was 7.7 percent higher, the CPI-U, X-l 7.1 percent higher, and the CPI-W 7.4 percent higher. CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U)—seasonally adjusted changes On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI for All Urban Consumers rose 0.2 percent in February, while the CPI-U, X-l increased 0.1 percent. The 0.2 percent rise in the official CPI-U follows a 0.3 percent increase in January and is in line with the moderate rates of increase evident since October. In the October to February period, the index rose at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.5 percent. The transportation component declined for the second consecutive month in February, largely due to a sharp drop in gasoline prices. The housing index continued to increase moderately. The food and beverage index advanced 0.6 percent in February, following an increase of 0.7 percent in January. The indexes for medical care and entertainment rose about the same as in the preceding month. The index for apparel and upkeep rose 0.4 percent in February, following a smaiMecline during the preceding 3-month period. The index for other goods and services also accelerated in February. Grocery store food prices increased 0.8 percent in February, following a 1.0 percent increase in January. The index for fruits and vegetables advanced sharply, but by less than in January. The index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs also registered a substantial increase, as sharp increases in prices for pork and eggs offset price declines in beef and poultry. All other major grocery store food groups recorded either moderate increases or declines in February. Prices of the other two components of the food and beverage component— restaurant meals and alcoholic beverages—rose 0.2 and 0.6 percent, respectively. The housing component advanced 0.4 percent in February, about the same as in recent months. The indexes for rent and homeownership both rose 0.4 percent. Home financing costs increased slightly, as a 0.4 percent increase in house prices offset a 0.2 percent decline in mortgage interest rates. Property taxes, however, rose sharply for the third consecutive month. The index for fuel and other utilities rose 0.2 percent in February, following a sharp increase in January. Fuel oil prices and charges for electricity both declined, and the increase in charges for natural gas was substantially smaller than in January. The index for household furnishings and operations rose 0.6 percent in February, Table A.

The transportation component declined 0.7 percent in February, following a decline of 0.2 percent in January. Declines in prices for gasoline and new cars were responsible for the decrease. Over the past 12 months, gasoline prices have declined 2.8 percent. The February decline of 0.8 percent in new car prices reflects rebates offered by domestic car manufacturers. Automobile finance charges declined 1.0 percent, following an increase of 0.2 percent in January and substantial increases in earlier months. On the other hand, used car prices increased 0.5 percent, following seasonal adjustment. The index for public transportation advanced 0.6 percent, largely due to a 1.0 percent increase in charges for airline fares. The 0.7 percent rise in the medical care index in February was about the same as in January and compares with an average monthly increase of 1.0 percent during 1981. Charges for hospital and other medical care services rose 0.9 percent in February. Charges for physicians' services and dental services increased 1.0 and 0.4 percent, respectively. The index for medical care commodities, which includes prescription and nonprescription drugs and medical supplies, increased 0.6 percent. The index for apparel and upkeep advanced 0.4 percent in February, following a 0.1 percent decline in January. Clothing prices increased in February, reflecting both a return to regular prices from sales and the introduction of spring wear. Charges for apparel services rose 0.3 percent. The index for entertainment increased 0.7 percent in February, the same as in January. The other goods and services component advanced 0.9 percent in February, largely due to a sharp increase in tobacco prices. CPI-U Experimental Measures On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI-U using rent substitution (X-l) rose 0.1 percent in February. The homeownership component for the CPI-U, X-l increased 0.4 percent, somewhat less than in recent months. The homeownership component of the official CPI-U, which employs house prices and mortgage interest rates, also increased 0.4 percent. CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W)—seasonally adjusted changes On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers rose 0.2 percent in February. The food and beverage component increased 0.4 percent in February. Grocery store food prices increased 0.6 percent in February, following a 1.0 percent increase in January. A substantially smaller increase in prices for fruits and vegetables was largely responsible for the moderation. On the other hand, the index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs advanced sharply. The housing component increased 0.3 percent. Homeownership costs and charges for rent both rose 0.3 percent. The index for fuels and utilities advanced slightly, following an increase of 1.2 percent in January. The indexes for fuel oil and electricity registered declines in February, while the increase in charges for natural gas was less than in January. The transportation component declined 0.7 percent, following a 0.2 percent decline in January, primarily due to a sharp decline—2.4 percent—in gasoline prices. New car prices and charges for automobile financing also declined in February. The medical care and entertainment components both increased 0.7 percent. The apparel and upkeep index rose 0.4 percent. The other goods and services index advanced 1.0 percent in February, due in part to a sharp increase in tobacco prices. Table B.

Homeownership Changes On October 27, 1981, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced its intention to change the way in which homeownership costs are measured for the Consumer Price Index. Effective with data for January 1983, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPIU) will incorporate a rental equivalence measure for homeownership costs. Effective with data for January 1985, the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) will also incorporate the rental equivalence approach. Details of these changes can be found in U.S. Department of Labor news release 81-506, October 27, 1981. February 1981 Seasonally adjusted percent change from— NOTE: See Technical Notes for explanation of homeownership measures. Postponement of Rebasing of Consumer Price Index Because of severe budget constraints, the Bureau of Labor Statistics did not carry out the Government directive to rebase the Consumer Price Index and the Producer Price Index to the new U.S. Government 1977=100 reference base. Postponement was 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. No alternative date for adopting the 1977 reference base has been set. All Items indexes on a 1977=100 reference base are available upon request from the Bureau. Homeownership Costs The Bureau of Labor Statistics has announced a plan to change the way the Consumer Price Index measures homeownership costs. Here are some questions and answers about the change. roughly 6 percent of all consumers covered by the index. All other consumers living in their own homes are assumed to have no home purchase and mortgage interest cost at all. 5. What is wrong with the current approach? 1. Why is the change in the homeownership component being made? The change is being made to improve the CPI. The cost of owning a home is a large part of a family's expenses. People buy houses to live in and because houses are important investments. The CPI should include the price of the shelter provided by the home but should exclude the change in the value of the house as an asset. The new approach will do that. 2. Will the change result in lower inflation figures? There is no way of knowing whether the new measure will produce higher or lower inflation figures. In the past an experimental measure similar to the one to be adopted rose more slowly than the CPI. 3. Was politics involved in the decision to change the CPI? The decision to change the homeownership component was made entirely on technical grounds by the Commissioner of Labor Statistics. The CPI is widely used to adjust benefits under government programs and payments under private contracts. Any change in the index naturally is of concern to those who have a stake in these payments, both as payers and recipients. Because of these concerns, decisions about CPI measurement are carefully insulated from politics. 4. How does the present CPI measure homeownership? The present CPI reflects the cost of the purchase of a house as an asset. The index includes the net price of the house purchased, the total amount of mortgage interest contracted for over half the life of the mortgage, property taxes, insurance, and home maintenance and repairs. The current CPI represents the expenditures of only those who purchased houses in the base period, From a practical point of view, accurate data needed to support the current approach are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. The scarcity of long-term mortgage financing, the growth of seller financing, and the advent of variable rate mortgages have combined to make the current approach unrepresentative of the marketplace. Furthermore, the current approach is based upon the purchase of an asset rather than the price of the shelter consumed. The index reflects shelter costs incurred only by those who purchased homes in the base period and does not cover shelter costs incurred by others who lived in homes purchased in earlier years. 6. How will the new homeownership measure differ? A new measure of rental equivalence will be used to represent the cost of the shelter consumed by the homeowner. BLS agents will collect information on rents for housing units that are similar to those that are owned. The change in these rents will represent the change in the amount that a homeowner would have to pay each month to live in a home like the one he owns. 7. How will the change to rental equivalence affect the weight of homeownership in the CPI? Homeownership costs make up about 25 percent of the present CPI. In an experimental rental equivalence measure produced by BLS, homeownership accounted for about 14 percent. 8. How will the rental equivalence measure differ from the CPI rent measure? The rental equivalence measure will consist of rents for a sample of homes for which sample weights represent owned units. Thus, in each sampling area, the housing units will represent the proportion of owneroccupied houses rather than the proportion of rental units. 9. How do other countries measure homeownership? Most other countries use a rental equivalence approach; some measure user cost more directly; and some exclude homeownership completely from the index. The United States is the only country in the world which includes the asset value of a house in the CPI. 10. Why did BLS wait so long to make the change? The CPI is an important statistical series which affects the incomes of a large number of people. It must have public credibility and it must be understood. The BLS raised the measurement issue publicly more than 10 years ago, published papers on the subject, calculated alternative measures, and encouraged public discussion of the issues involved. It took time for people to understand the issue. 11. Why is there so much advance notice of the change? A major change in an important index like the CPI cannot be made without advance notice. Approximately 1 year of notice is being provided for the change in the CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), which has only existed since 1978. The CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W), however, has been used for indexation since World War I. It is used in a large number of major collective bargaining agreements, many of which last for 3 years. For this reason, longer notice is being given for the CPI-W. Thus, the CPI-U will be changed beginning with data for January 1983 and the CPI-W beginning with data for January 1985. 12. Where can I obtain CPI information regularly? The most comprehensive source of CPI information is the monthly BLS periodical, CPI Detailed Report, available for $20 per year from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402.

Brief Explanation of the CPI 108 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 homeownersan 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 the 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 paid out by homeowners in the base period. As in X-l and in X-2, this measure covers the entire homeowner 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: (1) 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, property 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. 109 * U. S.
