CONSUMER PRICE MOVEMENTS
FEBRUARY 2014
The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 0.1 percent in February on a seasonally adjusted basis, the
U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Over the last 12 months, the all items index increased 1.1 percent before seasonal
adjustment.
An increase in the food index accounted for more than half of the all items increase in February. The food index rose 0.4 percent
in February, driven by a 0.5 percent increase in the index for food at home, with four of the six major grocery store food group indexes
increasing. The energy index declined, with a decrease in the gasoline index more than offsetting sharp increases in the fuel oil and
natural gas indexes.
The index for all items less food and energy also rose 0.1 percent in February. An increase of 0.2 percent in the shelter index was
the major contributor to the rise, but the indexes for medical care, airline fares, personal care, recreation, and new vehicles also increased.
In contrast, the indexes for household furnishings and operations, apparel, used cars and trucks, and tobacco all declined in February.
The all items index increased 1.1 percent over the last 12 months; this compares to increases of 1.5 percent in December and 1.6
percent in January. The index for all items less food and energy rose 1.6 percent over the last 12 months. The energy index declined 2.5
percent over the same period, while the food index has increased 1.4 percent.

Consumer Price Index Data for February 2014
Food
The food index rose 0.4 percent in February, its largest increase since September 2011. The food at home index increased 0.5
percent as four of the six major grocery store food group indexes increased. The index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs rose 1.2 percent
while the indexes for dairy and related products and other food at home saw more modest increases of 0.7 percent and 0.2 percent,
respectively. The index for fruits and vegetables rose 1.1 percent after five consecutive declines, though fresh vegetables declined 0.2
percent. The index for cereals and bakery products was down 0.4 percent, and the index for nonalcoholic beverages declined 0.3 percent.
The food index has risen 1.4 percent over the past year, with the food at home index up 0.9 percent and the index for food away from
home up 2.2 percent. The index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs has risen 4.0 percent over the last 12 months, compared to more modest

increases for dairy and related products, cereals and bakery products, and other food at home. The index for fruits and vegetables and
the index for nonalcoholic beverages both declined over the same period.

Energy
The energy index fell 0.5 percent in February as a decline in the gasoline index offset sharp increases in the indexes for fuel oil
and natural gas. The indexes for fuel oil and natural gas rose 4.1 percent and 3.6 percent, respectively, while the gasoline index was
down 1.7 percent (Before seasonal adjustment, gasoline prices rose 1.1 percent in February). The electricity index declined 0.2 percent
after an unusually large increase in January. Over the last 12 months, the energy index has fallen 2.5 percent, due to an 8.1 percent
decline in the gasoline index. The three remaining major energy indexes increased, with natural gas posting the highest increase at 8.3
percent.

All items less food and energy
The index for all items less food and energy increased 0.1 percent in February. The shelter index rose 0.2 percent, with the indexes
for rent and owners’ equivalent rent both rising 0.2 percent, and the index for lodging away from home advancing 0.6 percent. The
medical care index increased 0.3 percent in February, the same as January. The index for medical care commodities was up 0.6 percent
while the index for medical care services increased 0.2 percent. The index for airline fares rose 1.3 percent in February. The index for
personal care was up 0.2 percent. The recreation index was up 0.1 percent. The index for new vehicles rose 0.1 percent. Meanwhile,
the index for household furnishings and operations was down 0.4 percent. The apparel index dropped 0.3 percent (the same as January).
The index for used cars and trucks fell 0.1 percent. The alcohol and tobacco indexes decreased 0.3 percent and 0.1 percent, respectively.
The index for all items less food and energy has risen 1.6 percent over the last 12 months. The shelter index has risen 2.6 percent
over the last 12 months, with the rent index up 2.8 percent and the index for owners’ equivalent rent up 2.5 percent. The medical care
index has risen 2.3 percent. The index for household furnishings and operations declined 1.6 percent and the index for airline fares has
fallen 3.8 percent over the last year.

Not seasonally adjusted CPI measures
The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 1.1 percent over the last 12 months to an index level of
234.781 (1982-84=100). For the month, the index rose 0.4 percent prior to seasonal adjustment.
The Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) increased 1.0 percent over the last 12 months
to an index level of 230.871 (1982-84=100). For the month, the index rose 0.4 percent prior to seasonal adjustment.
The Chained Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (C-CPI-U) increased 1.0 percent over the last 12 months. For the

Variance Estimates for Price Changes in the Consumer Price Index
January–December 2013

Owen J. Shoemaker

This article presents variance estimates for 1-month, 2-month, 6-month, and 12-month percent changes in
the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U). Variance is a measure of the uncertainty
caused by the use of a sample of retail prices, instead of the complete universe of retail prices. The
estimates cover the period January 2013 through December 2013. Each month the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics collects prices from a sample of approximately 81,600 commodities and services (C&S) quotes
in approximately 24,400 outlets1 around the United States for the Consumer Price Index (CPI).
The most commonly used measure of sampling variability is the standard error of the estimate – the
square root of the variance. The standard error of the CPI’s change can be used to construct confidence
intervals to determine whether the change for a particular CPI series is significantly different from zero.
This information should help users determine which index changes are significant.
Presentation of findings
The percent changes in the CPI along with their standard errors were estimated for the 12 months from
January through December 2013. In summary, tables 1V through 5V show the median values of those
percent changes, as well as the median values of the standard errors. Table 1V shows this information for
U.S. city average, and tables 2V through 5V show the same information for the Northeast, Midwest,
South, and West regions of the country.
For example, from January through December 2013, the 1-month changes in the U.S. city average all
items index had a median value of 0.12 percent. The standard errors of those 12 estimates had a median
value of 0.03 percent. Margins of error are usually expressed as a statistic’s point estimate plus or minus
two standard errors, so the margin of error on the CPI’s 1-month change is approximately 0.12 percent
plus or minus 0.06 percent. Therefore, in a typical 1-month period in 2013, the true change in the CPI
was probably somewhere between 0.06 percent and 0.18 percent. The tables also show median percent
changes and standard errors for 2- and 6-month intervals and for the full year 2013. Margins of error can
be calculated for these intervals in the same way as for a 1-month period.
Analysis of findings
Analyzing the data reveals three significant observations. First, standard errors increase as one moves
from the U.S. city average to individual regions of the country and from all items to individual item
categories. Second, standard errors differ between item categories. Third, the standard errors decrease on
a relative basis (standard error divided by price change), as the price change interval gets longer.
The primary reason standard errors increase as one moves from the U.S. city average to individual
regions of the country is that sample sizes differ. In general, smaller sample sizes lead to larger standard
errors. For example, the U.S. city average all items index is computed each month from approximately
87,700 prices (including Rent and REQ quotes) throughout the United States, and its median standard
1

In addition, BLS collects approximately 6,100 rents each month, used for both Rent and Rental Equivalence
(REQ), each month.

CPI Detailed Report-February 2014

error for 1-month changes is 0.03 percent. By contrast, the Northeast region all items index is computed
from approximately 19,000 prices, and its median standard error is 0.07 percent. Regional indexes have
larger standard errors because their sample sizes are smaller.
One can observe this same effect moving from the all items index to individual item categories.
Again, the U.S. city average all items index is computed each month from approximately 87,700 prices,
and its median 1-month standard error is 0.03 percent. By contrast, the U.S. city average recreation index
is computed from approximately 5,600 prices, and its median 1-month standard error is 0.14 percent, over
four times as large. Again, smaller sample sizes typically lead to larger standard errors.
The second significant observation is that standard errors differ between item categories. There are
two reasons for this. First, item categories differ in sample size. For example, the U.S. city average food
and beverages index is computed from approximately 34,900 prices each month, while the U.S. city
average recreation index is computed from approximately 5,600 prices. Therefore, it is not surprising that
the recreation index has larger standard errors. Second, there are real differences in item category price
behaviors caused by different selling practices, seasonal influences, and consumer demand. This is
especially true for the apparel category, in which it is common for the prices of individual items to
fluctuate by 50 percent or more each month. As a result, standard errors for apparel indexes are large.
The third observation is that standard errors generally tend to decrease, on a relative basis (standard
error divided by price change), as the price change interval gets longer. For the U.S. city average all
items index, the median standard error divided by the median percent change is 0.03/0.12 = 0.25 for 1month changes, 0.04/0.16 = 0.25 for 2-month changes, 0.07/0.59 = 0.12 for 6-month changes, and
0.08/1.49 = 0.05 for 12-month changes. This shows that the relative accuracy of percent changes in the
CPI generally improves as the price change interval gets longer. On an absolute basis, standard errors tend
to increase, but at a decreasing rate.
Findings presented here indicate that users should exercise caution when using CPI estimates to make
inferences about index changes for relatively short time periods, for individual goods and services, or for
local areas. The standard errors of those estimates may be on the same order of magnitude as the estimates
themselves; and, thus, few inferences about them are reliable.
Sources of error
One way of analyzing the error in a survey estimate is to divide the total error into two sources: sampling
error and non-sampling error. Sampling error is the uncertainty in the CPI caused by the fact that a
sample of retail prices is used to compute the CPI, instead of using the complete universe of retail prices.
Non-sampling error is the rest of the error. Non-sampling error includes things such as incorrect
information given by survey respondents, data processing errors, and so forth. Non-sampling error arises
regardless of whether data are collected from a sample of retail prices or from the complete universe.
Another way of analyzing error is to divide it into variance and bias. The variance of the CPI is a
measure of how close different estimates of the CPI would be to each other if it were possible to repeat
the survey over and over using different samples. Of course, it is not feasible to repeat the survey multiple
times, but statistical theory allows the CPI’s variance to be estimated anyway. A small variance, for
example, indicates that multiple independent samples would produce values that are consistently very
close to each other. Bias is the difference between the CPI’s expected value and its true value. A statistic
may have a small variance but a large bias, or it may have a large variance but a small bias. For an index
to be considered accurate, both its variance and bias need to be small.

5

CPI Detailed Report-February 2014

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is constantly trying to reduce the error in the CPI. Variance and
sampling error are reduced by using a sample of retail prices that is as large as possible, given resource
constraints. BLS has developed a model that optimizes the allocation of resources by indicating the
number of prices that should be observed in each geographic area and each item category, in order to
minimize the variance of the U.S. city average all items index. BLS reduces non-sampling error through
a series of computerized and professional data reviews, as well as through continuous survey process
improvements and theoretical research.
Replication and variance estimation
An important advantage of using sampling is that the CPI’s variance can be estimated directly from the
sample data. Starting in 1978, the CPI’s sample design has accommodated variance estimation by using
two or more independent samples of items and outlets in each geographic area. This allows two or more
statistically independent estimates of the index to be made. The independent samples are called replicates,
and the set of all observed prices is called the full sample.
BLS collects CPI data in 38 geographic areas across the United States. These areas consist of 31 selfrepresenting areas and 7 non-self-representing areas. Self-representing areas are large metropolitan areas,
such as the Boston, St. Louis, and San Francisco metropolitan areas. Non-self-representing areas are
collections of smaller metropolitan areas. For example, one non-self-representing area is a collection of
32 small metropolitan areas in the Northeast region (Buffalo, Hartford, Providence, Bangor, and others),
of which 8 were randomly selected to represent the entire set. Within each of the 38 areas, price data are
collected for 211 item categories called item strata. Together the 211 item strata cover all consumer
purchases. Examples of item strata are bananas, women’s dresses, and electricity.
Multiplying the number of areas by the number of item strata gives 8,018 (= 38 u 211) different area
and item combinations for which price indexes need to be calculated. Separate price indexes are
calculated for each one of these 8,018 area and item combinations. After all 8,018 of these basic-level
indexes are calculated, they are aggregated to form higher-level indexes, using expenditure estimates from
the Consumer Expenditure Survey as their weights. Examples of higher-level geographic areas are the
four regions (Northeast, Midwest, South, and West); and examples of higher-level item categories are the
eight major groups (food & beverages, housing, apparel, transportation, medical care, education and
communication, recreation, and other goods and services). The highest level of geographic aggregation is
the U.S. city average, and the highest level of item aggregation is all items.
Variances are computed with a Stratified Random Groups Method, in which variances are computed
separately for certain subsets of areas and items and are then combined to produce the variance of the
entire area and item combination. Subsets of items are formed by the intersection of the item category
with each of the eight major groups.
Let CPI(A,I,f,t) denote the index value where A = area, I = item category, f indicates that it is the fullsample value, and t = month; and let CPI(A,I,f,t-k) denote the value of the same index in month = t-k. In
general, the upper-case letter A denotes a set of areas, such as the Northeast or Midwest region of the
country; and the upper-case letter I denotes a higher-level item category, such as all items or all items less
food and energy. Also let CPI(A,I,r,t) and CPI(A,I,r,t-k) be the corresponding index values for replicate
= r. Most areas have two replicates, but some have more. Then, the full-sample k-month percent change
between months t-k and t is computed by dividing CPI(A,I,f,t) by CPI(A,I,f,t-k), subtracting 1, and
multiplying by 100:
PC ( A, I , f , t , t  k )

CPI Detailed Report-February 2014

Every index has a weight W(A,I,f) or W(A,I,r) associated with it, which is used to combine the index
with other indexes to produce indexes for larger geographic areas and larger item categories. For
example, the weights are used to combine all 8,018 basic-level indexes into higher-level indexes such as
the U.S. city average all items index. The product of an index and its weight is called a cost weight,
CW(A,I,r,t) = CPI(A,I,r,t) u W(A,I,r), and is an estimate of the total cost in area = A for consumption of
item category = I in month = t.
For the Stratified Random Groups method used here, replicate percent changes are defined as follows:
full sample cost weights are used for every geographic area within area = A except for one of the areas. In
the omitted area, the full sample cost weight is replaced by a replicate cost weight. Let the lower case
letter a denote one of the 38 basic-level areas included in area = A, and let the lower case letter i denote
the intersection of item category = I with one of the 8 major groups. Then, the replicate percent change,
for area = a, item subset = i, replicate = r, between months t-k and t, is computed as:
PCS (a, i, r , t , t  k )

for self-representing areas. For non-self-representing areas, the replicate percent change, for area = a,
item category = I, replicate = r, between months t-k and t, is computed as:

and likewise for replicates. The symbol “aA” means that the sum is over all basic-level areas within
area = A, and the symbol iI means that the sum is over all item categories that are intersections of item

areas within area = A. The number Ra is the number of replicates in area = a.

- Data not available.
NOTE: Local area indexes are byproducts of the national CPI program. Each
local index has a smaller sample size than the national index and is, therefore,
subject to substantially more sampling and other measurement error. As a
result, local area indexes show greater volatility than the national index,
although their long-term trends are similar. Therefore, the Bureau of Labor
Statistics strongly urges users to consider adopting the national average CPI
for use in their escalator clauses.
NOTE: Index applies to a month as a whole, not to any specific date.

6 Indexes on a November 1996=100 base.
- Data not available.
NOTE: Local area indexes are byproducts of the national CPI program. Each
local index has a smaller sample size than the national index and is, therefore,
subject to substantially more sampling and other measurement error. As a
result, local area indexes show greater volatility than the national index,
although their long-term trends are similar. Therefore, the Bureau of Labor
Statistics strongly urges users to consider adopting the national average CPI
for use in their escalator clauses.
NOTE: Index applies to a month as a whole, not to any specific date.

CPI Detailed Report-February 2014

Technical Notes
Brief Explanation of the CPI
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average change in prices over time of goods and services purchased by
households. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) publishes CPIs for two population groups: (1) The CPI for Urban Wage Earners
and Clerical Workers (CPI-W), which covers households of wage earners and clerical workers that comprise approximately 28 percent
of the total population and (2) the CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) and the Chained CPI for All Urban Consumers (C-CPI-U),
which covers approximately 89 percent of the total population and include, in addition to wage earner and clerical worker households,
groups 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 CPIs are based on prices of food, clothing, shelter, and fuels, transportation fares, charges for doctors’ and dentists’ services,
drugs, and other goods and services that people buy for day-to-day living. Prices are collected each month in 87 urban areas across the
country from about 6,100 housing units and approximately 24,000 retail establishments—department stores, supermarkets, 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 fuels and a few other items are obtained every month in all 87 locations. Prices of most other commodities
and services are collected every month in the three largest geographic areas and every other month in other areas. Prices of most goods
and services are obtained through personal visits or telephone calls by BLS trained representatives.
In calculating the index, price changes for the various items in each location are averaged together with weights that represent their
importance in the spending of the appropriate population group. Local data are then combined to obtain a U.S. city average. For the
CPI-U and CPI-W, separate indexes also are published by size of city, by region of the country, for cross-classifications of regions and
population-size classes, and for 27 local areas. Area indexes do not measure differences in the level of prices among cities; they measure
only the average change in prices for each area since the base period. For the C-CPI-U, data are issued only at the national level. It is
important to note that the CPI-U and CPI-W are considered final when released, but the C-CPI-U is issued in preliminary form and is
subject to two annual revisions.
The index measures price change from a designated reference date. For the CPI-U and the CPI-W, the reference base is 1982–84
= 100.0. The reference base for the C-CPI-U is December 1999=100.0. An increase of 16.5 percent from the reference base, for example,
is shown as 116.5. This change also can 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 1982–84 to $11.65.
For further details, visit the CPI homepage on the Internet at http://www.bls.gov/cpi or contact our CPI Information and Analysis
Section at (202) 691-7000.

Calculating index changes
Movements of the indexes from one month to another usually are 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, whereas percent changes are not. The
example shown in the box on this page 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.

The West--Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and
Wyoming.

Energy prices
Prices usually are available for the U.S. city average, 13 large metropolitan areas, the 4 census regions, 3 size classifications, and
10 areas reflecting the 4 census regions cross-classified by the 3 population sizes. However, not all energy commodities and services
are used in every area of the country. Fuel oil, for example, is not a common heating fuel in some urban areas, particularly in the South
and West. Where no average prices are available, the designation NA appears. This designation also appears if the data sufficiency
criteria have not been met in any given month. For example, if there are fewer than five usable fuel oil prices for a published city or
region size class, no fuel oil prices for the area will be published.
All prices are collected monthly by BLS representatives in the urban areas priced for the CPI. Prices for natural gas and electricity
include fuel and purchased gas adjustments and all applicable taxes. Fuel oil and gasoline prices include applicable Federal, State, and
local taxes.
Natural gas and electricity. Natural gas prices are reported in therms, which are a measure of heating value. Electricity prices are
given in kilowatt hours (kwh). It should be noted that bills priced for the CPI not only are for different consumption amounts, but may
also be calculated from different types of residential rate schedules. The average prices per therm and per kilowatt hour are not,
therefore, generally suitable for use in place-to-place price comparisons.
Fuel oil. Only #2 fuel oil (home heating oil) is priced. Prices are collected, in most cases, for quantities greater than 1 gallon.
These prices are converted to a gallon price for this program. Fuel oil prices reflect discounts for quantity or quick payment.
Gasoline and automotive diesel fuel. Gasoline and diesel prices, shown in table P3, are collected at the pump from a sample of
full service, miniservice, and self-service gas stations. Approximate British Thermal Unit (BTU) values for some energy items are as
follows, according to the source indicated:
1 therm = 100,000 BTUs (U.S. Department of Energy)
1 kwh = 3,412 BTUs (Edison Electric Institute)
1 gallon #2 fuel oil = 140,000 BTUs (U.S. Department of Energy)

Food and beverage prices
Actual weighted average prices for food and beverages are calculated each month at the national level and for the four census
geographic regions, as shown in table P4. As a result of changes in price collection methodology and sample sizes, average
prices for individual cities cannot, in general, be produced. It is hoped, however, that regional average prices will help to satisfy the
need for local area data. It should be noted that the average prices for food in this report reflect variations in brand, quality, and size
among geographic areas. Users of average food prices should be aware that these differences exist.
Because a number of food commodities are not available in all areas on a year-round basis, prices will not appear in some months
for some regions or for the U.S. city average. In other instances, sufficient prices may not be available due to temporary disruptions in
supplies. Where no average prices are available, the designation NA appears. When a price is not available from an individual store in
any month, an estimated price will be calculated for the missing item and used in computing the average price. For cases in which the
proportion of estimated prices used to calculate the average is considered too high, the average price is not published, and NA appears
for that item in the table.
Because of space limitations in the table, the description for each item is abbreviated. Detailed specifications are available from
BLS information offices or from the Washington office, upon request.

CPI Detailed Report-February 2014

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 also are
used extensively for escalation purposes. Many collective bargaining contract agreements and pension plans, for example, tie
compensation changes to the Consumer Price Index before adjustment for seasonal variation.
Seasonal factors used in computing the seasonally adjusted indexes are derived by the X-13ARIMA-SEATS Seasonal Adjustment
Method. Seasonally adjusted indexes and seasonal factors are computed annually. Each year, the last five years of seasonally adjusted
data are revised. Data from January 2009 through December 2013 were replaced in January 2014. Exceptions to the usual revision
schedule were: the updated seasonal data at the end of 1977 replaced data from 1967 through 1977; and, in January 2002, dependently
seasonally adjusted series were revised for January 1987-December 2001 as a result of a change in the aggregation weights for
dependently adjusted series. For further information, please see “Aggregation of Dependently Adjusted Seasonally Adjusted Series,” in
the October 2001 issue of the CPI Detailed Report.
Effective with the publication of data from January 2006 through December 2010 in January 2011, the Video and audio series and
the Information technology, hardware and services series were changed from independently adjusted to dependently adjusted. This
resulted in an increase in the number of seasonal components used in deriving seasonal movement of the All items and 64 other lower
level aggregations, from 73 for the publication of January 1998 through December 2005 data to 82 for the publication of seasonally
adjusted data for January 2006 and later. Each year the seasonal status of every series is reevaluated based upon certain statistical
criteria. If any of the 82 components change their seasonal adjustment status from seasonally adjusted to not seasonally adjusted, not
seasonally adjusted data will be used in the aggregation of the dependent series for the last five years, but the seasonally adjusted indexes
before that period will not be changed. Note: 35 of the 82 components are not seasonally adjusted for 2014.
Seasonally adjusted data, including the all items index levels, are subject to revision for up to five years after their original release.
For this reason, BLS advises against the use of these data in escalation agreements.
Effective with the calculation of the seasonal factors for 1990, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has used an enhanced seasonal
adjustment procedure called Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment for some CPI series. Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment
allows for better estimates of seasonally adjusted data. Extreme values and/or sharp movements which might distort the seasonal pattern
are estimated and removed from the data prior to calculation of seasonal factors. Beginning with the calculation of seasonal factors for
1996, X-12-ARIMA software was used for Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment. In 2014, for the 2009-2013 revisions, the Bureau
of Labor Statistics began using X-13ARIMA-SEATS to perform the seasonal adjustment of CPI series, including Intervention Analysis
Seasonal Adjustment for certain series.
For the seasonal factors introduced in January 2014, BLS adjusted 31 series using Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment,
including selected food and beverage items, motor fuels, electricity and vehicles. For example, this procedure was used for the Motor
fuel series to offset the effects of events such as the response in crude oil markets to the worldwide economic downturn in 2008.
For a complete list of Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment series and explanations, please refer to the article “Intervention
Analysis Seasonal Adjustment”, located on our website at http://www.bls.gov/cpi/cpisapage.htm.
For additional information on seasonal adjustment in the CPI, please write to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Division of Consumer
Prices and Price Indexes, Washington, DC 20212 or contact Chris Graci at (202) 691-5826, or by e-mail at graci.christopher@bls.gov,
or contact Carlyle Jackson at (202) 691-6984, or by e-mail at jackson.carlyle@bls.gov . If you have general questions about the CPI,
please call our information staff at (202) 691-7000.

How to Obtain Consumer Price Index Information
CPI information is available from BLS electronically, through publication subscriptions, and via telephone and fax through
automated recordings. Information specialists also are available in the national and information offices to provide help and to respond
to questions.

Electronic access to CPI data
BLS on the Internet. Through the Internet, BLS provides free, continuous access to published CPI data and press releases. The
most recent month’s CPI is made available immediately at the time of release. Additionally, a database called LABSTAT, containing
current and historical data for the CPI, is accessible.
World Wide Web. BLS maintains a Web site at http://www.bls.gov on the Internet. This BLS homepage provides access to
LABSTAT, as well as links to program-specific homepages. The CPI homepage http://www.bls.gov/cpi/ provides other CPI information,
as well as indexes. This includes a brief explanation of methodology, frequently asked questions and answers, contacts for further
information, and explanations of how the CPI program handles special items, such as medical care and housing. In addition, CPI press
releases and historical data for metropolitan areas can be accessed by linking to the regional office home pages from the main BLS Web
site listed above.

Recorded CPI data
Summary CPI data are provided on 24-hour recorded messages. Detailed CPI information may be obtained by calling (202) 6915200. A touch-tone telephone is recommended, as this system allows the user to select specific indexes from lists of available data.
Recorded summaries of CPI data also may be obtained by calling any one of the metropolitan area CPI hotlines listed next. These
hotline summaries typically include data for the U.S. city average, as well as for the specified area. The recordings are approximately
3 minutes in length, do not require a touch-tone telephone, and are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
