CPI Detailed Report-January 2013

CONSUMER PRICE MOVEMENTS
JANUARY 2013
The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) was unchanged in January on a seasonally adjusted basis, the U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Over the last 12 months, the all items index increased 1.6 percent before seasonal
adjustment.
The index for all items less food and energy increased 0.3 percent in January. This increase offset another decline in the gasoline
index and resulted in the seasonally adjusted all items index being unchanged, as it was last month. Increases in the indexes for shelter
and apparel accounted for much of the increase in the index for all items less food and energy, with advances in the indexes for
recreation, medical care, and airline fares also contributing.
The energy index fell 1.7 percent in January. Along with the gasoline index, the natural gas and fuel oil indexes also declined,
while the electricity index increased. The index for food was unchanged in January after increasing in each of the previous ten months.
The food at home index was unchanged with major grocery store food group indexes mixed.
The all items index increased 1.6 percent over the last 12 months; the 12-month change has been slowing since its recent peak of
2.2 percent in October. The index for all items less food and energy rose 1.9 percent over the last 12 months, the same figure as the
last two months. The food index has risen 1.6 percent over the last 12 months while the energy index has declined 1.0 percent.

Consumer Price Index Data for January 2013
Food
The food index was unchanged in January after rising 0.2 percent in each of the last three months. The index for food at home
was also unchanged after recent increases. Three major grocery store food group indexes increased in January. The index for dairy and
related products rose 0.4 percent in January, its sixth increase in a row. The fruits and vegetables index rose 0.3 percent, and the index
for cereals and bakery products increased 0.1 percent. In contrast to these increases, the index for nonalcoholic beverages declined 0.5
percent in January, and the index for other food at home fell 0.2 percent. The index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs was unchanged.
Over the last 12 months, the food at home index has risen 1.1 percent. The fruits and vegetables index posted the largest increase over

1

CPI Detailed Report-January 2013

that span, rising 2.9 percent, while the indexes for nonalcoholic beverages and dairy and related products both declined. The index for
food away from home rose 0.1 percent in January and has increased 2.3 percent over the last 12 months.

Energy
The energy index declined 1.7 percent in January, its third consecutive decline. The gasoline index fell for the fourth straight
month, declining 3.0 percent. (Before seasonal adjustment, gasoline prices increased 0.3 percent in January.) The index for fuel oil fell
0.2 percent in January. The index for natural gas, which rose in November and December, declined 1.7 percent. In contrast to these
declines, the electricity index rose 1.1 percent in January. Over the last 12 months, the energy index has declined 1.0 percent, with the
gasoline index falling 1.5 percent and the index for natural gas decreasing 2.5 percent. These declines more than offset the fuel oil and
electricity indexes, which rose 2.0 percent and 0.5 percent, respectively.

All items less food and energy
The index for all items less food and energy increased 0.3 percent in January after rising 0.1 percent in November and December.
The shelter index rose 0.2 percent in January. The indexes for rent and owners’ equivalent rent also increased 0.2 percent, while the
index for lodging away from home rose 1.2 percent. The apparel index increased 0.8 percent, and the index for airline fares rose for
the fifth month in a row, advancing 1.1 percent. The recreation index increased 0.3 percent and the index for medical care rose 0.1
percent. The index for used cars and trucks rose 0.2 percent, ending a string of six consecutive declines, while the new vehicles index
advanced 0.1 percent. The tobacco index rose 0.5 percent, the same increase as in December, and the index for personal care increased
0.1 percent. In contrast, the index for household furnishings and operations was one of the few indexes to decline in January, falling
0.1 percent.
The index for all items less food and energy increased 1.9 percent for the 12 months ending January. Airline fare (3.8 percent),
medical care (3.1 percent), shelter (2.2 percent), and apparel (2.1 percent) were among the indexes that rose more quickly. New
vehicles (1.7 percent) and recreation (0.6 percent) rose more slowly, while used cars and trucks (-1.3 percent) and household
furnishings and operations (-0.2 percent) declined.

Not seasonally adjusted CPI measures
The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 1.6 percent over the last 12 months to an index level of
230.280 (1982-84=100). For the month, the index increased 0.3 percent prior to seasonal adjustment.
The Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) increased 1.5 percent over the last 12 months
to an index level of 226.520 (1982-84=100). For the month, the index increased 0.3 percent prior to seasonal adjustment.
The Chained Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (C-CPI-U) increased 1.5 percent over the last 12 months. For the
month, the index increased 0.3 percent on a not seasonally adjusted basis. Please note that the indexes for the post-2011 period are
subject to revision.

The Consumer Price Index for February 2013 is scheduled to be released on Friday, March 15, 2013, at 8:30 a.m. (EDT).

C-CPI-U Index Revisions
As scheduled, effective with this release of data for January 2013, the Chained Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers
(C-CPI-U) has undergone its annual revision. Because the current expenditure data required for the calculation of the C-CPI-U are
available only with a time lag, the index is issued first in preliminary form, using the latest available expenditure data at the time of
publication, and is subject to two subsequent revisions. Therefore, C-CPI-U indexes for the 12 months of 2011 are issued in final form
– employing monthly expenditure weights from 2011. Values for the 12 months of 2012 are revised and issued as interim, using
expenditure weights from the 2009-2010 period. Calculation of the initial value of the January 2013 C-CPI-U index, and all
subsequent months in 2013, will also be based upon 2009-2010 expenditure weights.

Discontinuation of Department Store Inventory Indexes
The Bureau of Labor Statistics will discontinue publication of its Department Store Inventory indexes after the release of the
December 2013 CPI in mid-January 2014, and these values will no longer be uploaded to the Labstat database. For further information
please contact Sharon Gibson at 202-691-6968 or gibson.sharon@bls.gov.

Publication Changes for Average Price Series
The Bureau of Labor Statistics will discontinue publication of three average price series after the release of the June 2013 CPI in
mid-July 2013. They are:
-

utility (piped) gas, 40 therms;
utility (piped) gas, 100 therms; and
electricity, 500 kilowatt hours.

The Bureau will, however, continue to publish average prices for utility (piped) gas on a per therm basis, and will continue to
publish electricity prices on a per kilowatt hour basis. As such, users will be able to convert these data to any consumption amount.
CPI Detailed Report table P1. Average residential prices for utility (piped) gas, electricity, and fuel oil, U.S. city average and selected
areas will no longer be published. Data for fuel oil #2, per gallon (3.785 liters) will continue to be available in the CPI Average Price
Data public database.

CPI Detailed Report-January 2013

A Note on 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-12-ARIMA Seasonal Adjustment
Method. Seasonally adjusted indexes and seasonal factors are computed annually. Each year, the last 5 years of seasonally adjusted
data are revised. Data from January 2008 through December 2012 were replaced in January 2013. 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 54 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 5 years, but the seasonally
adjusted indexes before that period will not be changed. Note: 37 of the 82 components are not seasonally adjusted for 2013.
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.
For the seasonal factors introduced in January 2013, 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 damage to oil refineries from Hurricane Katrina.
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

CPI Detailed Report-January 2013

Response Rates for the Consumer
Price Indexes, 2012

This article and the accompanying tables update
articles previously published on response rates in the
CPI Detailed Report for March 1991, and in the
January issues of 1993 through 2012.
In an effort to measure the outcome of data
collection for the CPI, the BLS calculates response
rates. Response rates measure the proportion of
completed surveys to those issued and help measure
the accuracy of the CPI. Failure of a data unit to
respond at either the data collection stage or
estimation stage represents a loss of statistical
information which dilutes the accuracy of the sample.
The BLS publishes response rates annually to assist
the data user in judging the accuracy of CPI data.
The BLS calculates response rates for the CPI-U
at the data collection and data estimation phases for
pricing. The response rate at the data collection
phase is the number of responding sample units
divided by the number of eligible sample units. A
sample unit is eligible if it belongs to the defined
target population and if it should provide information
for one or more items. The percent of the sample
used at estimation is defined as the number of sample
units used in estimation divided by the number of
eligible sample units.1
Response rates for 2012 are presented in tables R1 through R-17. Table R-1 shows response rates for
all data included in the CPI-U, U.S. city average, by
major group, for all of 2012. Tables R-2 through R17 show rates for current data collection in selected
areas for which indexes are published monthly,
bimonthly, or semiannually.

The response rates in tables R-1 through R-17 are
separated into commodities and services, and the
shelter portion of housing.
Commodities and
services are further broken down into outlets and
quotes. An "outlet" is a generic term that designates
the place where prices are collected. A "quote" is a
specific item to be priced in a specific outlet. There
may be from 1 to more than 50 quotes priced in each
outlet.
In table R-1, it is important to note the relatively
low percentages of quotes reported, collected and
used in estimation for apparel. Low rates for these
items can be partially attributed to the design of the
apparel sample. Because seasonal apparel items
commonly are in stores only during certain times of
the year, most of the apparel sample is doubled, with
each half of the sample designated for pricing during
part of the year. Thus, at any particular time of the
year, a large number of apparel quotes, although
eligible, are designated out of season and are not
collected.
The response rates at the data collection phase for
shelter are separated into three categories. If useable
information is obtained, the unit is designated data
reported. If the assigned unit is located but is
unoccupied, the unit is designated found vacant. In
instances where the unit is eligible but no data are
available (for example, refusals or no one at home)
the unit is designated other.
For additional information on response rates,
write to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Division of
Consumer Prices and Price Indexes, Room 3615, 2
Massachusetts Avenue, NE., Washington, DC 202120001, or call Darren Rippy at (202) 691-7000, or
email him at Rippy.Darren@bls.gov.

Imputed prices, when used in estimation, are
counted in this estimate. Beginning in July 2010, the
BLS began using rent prices imputed by a noninterview adjustment technique in estimation.
Therefore, nearly all eligible sample units have
prices, collected or imputed, that are used in
estimation.

- 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.

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.
