Price Movements

The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers
(CPI-U) rose 0.1 percent before seasonal adjustment in
July to 247.8 (1967 = 100). The Consumer Price Index
for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W)
also increased 0.1 percent before seasonal adjustment in
July to 248,0 (1967 = 100). The CPI-U was 13,2 percent
higher and the CPI-W was 13.0 percent higher than in
July 1979.
CP1 for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U)—seasonally
adjusted changes
On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI-U was unchanged from June to July. This compares with increases of 0.9 percent or more in each of the preceding
18 months and marked the first time since March 1967
that the CPI did not register an increase. The index for
housing declined 0.7 percent, as a result of a 5.7 percent
decline in mortgage interest rates. This decrease offset
the acceleration in food and beverage prices, as well as
the comparatively moderate increases in most other major categories of consumer spending.
The decline in the housing component in July followed a 15-month period of increases of 1.0 percent or
more and was the first decrease since March 1973.
Home financing costs declined 5.6 percent, reflecting
the 5.7 percent decrease in mortgage interest rates and
an increase of 0.5 percent in house prices. The index for
rent rose 0.5 percent in July, following increases of 1.0

percent or more in each of the previous 2 months. Prices
for household fuels continued to increase but not as
much as in the 2 previous months. Charges for natural
gas and electricity rose L4 and 1.0 percent, respectively,
while fuel oil prices continued the moderate trend evident since April. The index for household furnishings
and operations rose 0.6 percent in July, the same as in
May and June.
Prices for grocery store foods rose 1.2 percent in July,
after increasing only 1.5 percent during the first 6
months of the year. Prices for beef, pork, and poultry
rose sharply, following 3 months of declines. The indexes for fruits and vegetables and dairy products also
registered substantial increases in July. Prices for sugar
and sweets continued the sharp upward trend which
began in January. Prices of the other two components
of the food and beverage index—restaurant meals and
alcoholic beverages—rose 0.5 percent in July, less than
in recent months.
The transportation component rose 0.4 percent in
July, following a decline of 0.2 percent in June. New
and used car prices rose 0.9 and 0.7 percent, respectively, and were primarily responsible for the July increase.
Gasoline prices declined, following seasonal adjustment, for the third consecutive month, but not as much
as in May or June. Prices for tires and other petroleum
products—motor oil and coolant—rose substantially in
July. Automobile finance charges, which had advanced

CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers
(CPI-W)—seasonally adjusted changes

On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI-W was unchanged from June to July. This compares with increases of 0.9 percent or more in each of the preceding
18 months. The housing index declined 0.7 percent as
mortgage interest rates declined 5.6 percent. This
decrease offset both the advance in the food and
beverage index and the comparatively moderate increases in most other categories of consumer spending.
The decline in the housing components in July followed a 17-month period of increases of 1.0 percent or
more and was the first decrease since March 1973.

Technical Notes

Brief Explanation of the CPI

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 editfon (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.

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 (CPI-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.




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-1I 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.(l) 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 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
CPL 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 owned and the equity
component is the amount owed, 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
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.
