The May level of 207.949 (1982-84=100) was 2.7 percent higher than in May 2006. The Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) increased 0.8 percent in May prior to seasonal adjustment. The May level of 203.661 (1982-84=100) was 2.8 percent higher than in May 2006. The Chained Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (C-CPI-U) increased 0.4 percent in May on a not seasonally adjusted basis. The May level of 120.032 (December 1999=100) was 2.3 percent higher than in May 2006. Please note that the indexes for the post-2005 period are subject to revision. CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI-U advanced 0.7 percent in May, following a 0.4 percent increase in April. The index for energy increased sharply for the third consecutive month--up 5.4 percent in May. The index for petroleum-based energy rose 9.8 percent while the index for energy services declined 0.2 percent. The food index rose 0.3 percent in May, slightly less than in April. The index for all items less food and energy advanced 0.1 percent in May, following a 0.2 percent rise in April. Smaller increases in the indexes for shelter and medical care were responsible for the moderation. Table A.

This compares with an increase of 2.5 percent for all of 2006. The acceleration thus far this year was due to larger increases in the energy and food components. The index for energy advanced at a 36.0 percent SAAR in the first five months of 2007 compared with 2.9 percent in 2006. Petroleum-based energy costs increased at a 63.9 percent annual rate and charges for energy services rose at a 6.8 percent annual rate. The food index has increased at a 6.2 percent SAAR thus far this year, following a 2.1 percent rise for all of 2006. Excluding food and energy, the CPI-U advanced at a 2.1 percent SAAR in the first five months, following a 2.6 percent rise for all of 2006. The food and beverages index rose 0.3 percent in May. The index for food at home increased 0.4 percent, following a 0.5 percent rise in April. The index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs registered a substantial increase for the third consecutive month-up 1.2 percent in May. The indexes for pork and for other meats turned up in May after declining in April, advancing 2.0 and 0.8 percent, respectively. Poultry prices rose 0.8 percent; beef prices slowed from their recent trend, increasing 0.1 percent. Through the first five months of 2007, beef prices have risen 5.1 percent, poultry prices, 4.3 percent, and pork prices, 3.4 percent. The index 1 CPI Detailed Report - May 2007 for fruits and vegetables, which rose 0.4 percent in April, declined 0.5 percent in May. (Prior to seasonal adjustment, prices for fruits and vegetables rose 1.0 percent.) The indexes for fresh vegetables and for processed fruits and vegetables declined 1.8 and 0.3 percent, respectively, while the index for fresh fruits increased 0.7 percent. The index for dairy products increased 0.5 percent as a 2.2 percent increase in milk prices more than offset a 0.4 percent decline in prices for cheese. The index for nonalcoholic beverages rose 0.9 percent, reflecting an upturn in prices for carbonated drinks and for coffee. The indexes for cereal and bakery products and for other food at home were each virtually unchanged in May. The other two components of the food and beverages index--food away from home and alcoholic beverages--each increased 0.2 percent. The index for housing increased 0.2 percent in May, the same as in each of the two preceding months. The index for shelter rose 0.2 percent in May, following an increase of 0.3 percent in April. Within shelter, the index for rent rose 0.3 percent; the index for owners' equivalent rent, 0.1 percent; and the index for lodging away from home, 1.6 percent. The index for household energy declined 0.1 percent as a 0.9 percent decrease in the index for natural gas was partially offset by increases in the indexes for fuel oil and for electricity--up 1.9 and 0.1 percent, respectively. (Prior to seasonal adjustment, charges for electricity rose 1.7 percent, reflecting the switch to seasonal rates in some areas.) The index for household furnishings and operations was virtually unchanged in May. The transportation index rose sharply for the third consecutive month--up 2.8 percent in May. A 10.4 percent increase in the index for motor fuels was partially offset by declines in the indexes for new and used vehicles and for public transportation. (Prior to seasonal adjustment, gasoline prices rose 9.5 percent. As of May, the price of gasoline was 4.0 percent higher than its previous peak level recorded in July 2006.) The index for new vehicles declined 0.2 percent, while the index for used cars and trucks increased 0.1 percent. During the last 12 months, new vehicle prices have declined 1.0 percent and prices for used cars and trucks, 4.6 percent. The index for public transportation declined 0.5 percent in April, reflecting a 0.6 percent decrease in the index for airline fares. (Prior to seasonal adjustment, airline fares rose 0.4 percent.) The index for apparel declined 0.3 percent in May the same as in April. (Prior to seasonal adjustment, apparel prices decreased 1.2 percent. Prices for women’s and girls’ apparel registered the largest decline--down 2.3 percent.) Medical care costs rose 0.3 percent in May and are 4.0 percent higher than a year ago. The index for medical care commodities-prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and medical supplies--was virtually unchanged. The index for medical care services rose 0.4 percent. The indexes for professional services and for hospital and related services increased 0.2 and 0.7 percent, respectively. The index for recreation rose 0.2 percent in May. The index for cable and satellite television and radio service increased 1.0 percent. This increase was partially offset by a 3.1 percent decline in the index for televisions. Television prices have declined 26.9 percent during the 12 month period ended in May. The index for education and communication advanced 0.6 percent in May. Educational costs rose 0.4 percent and the index for communication costs increased 0.7 percent. Within the communication group, the index for telephone services rose 0.9 percent. Land-line local service charges increased 0.3 percent, land-line long distance charges advanced 2.7 percent, while wireless telephone service charges declined 0.1 percent. The indexes for personal computers and peripheral equipment declined 2.0 percent. The index for internet services and electronic information providers advanced for the third consecutive month--up 0.1 percent in May--but was 23.6 percent lower than a year ago. The index for other goods and services increased 0.3 percent in May. The index for tobacco and smoking products rose 0.4 percent, following a 0.4 percent decline in April. The index for miscellaneous personal services rose 0.3 percent, reflecting increases for legal and for financial services, each up 0.5 percent. 2 CPI Detailed Report - May 2007 CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers increased 0.8 percent in May.

This change applies to the All Items Consumer Price Index and all component indexes for the CPI-U, CPI-W, and C-CPI-U, for the U.S. City Average and for all other published areas. In addition, CPI index values are displayed to three decimal places in all paper and electronic publications. As in the past, percent changes are rounded to one decimal place. This change in procedure addresses a rounding issue that has resulted in published percent changes that are 0.1 percentage point higher or lower than the same percent changes based on unrounded index values (i.e., indexes to three or more decimal places). These differences can be particularly important when percent changes are very small. Publishing the index values to three decimal places, and using these values to compute percent changes, essentially eliminates the rounding differences. This change only affects the presentation of the index data. Index values continue to be calculated from underlying price data in the same manner as in the past, and no systematic upward or downward effect on the data is introduced. The levels of future indexes will be affected only in that they will be published to three decimal places rather than one. Official CPI data previously published will not be revised. For more information contact Patrick Jackman or Ken Stewart either by telephone at (202) 691-6952 and (202) 691-6966, respectively, or by electronic mail at Jackman.Patrick@bls.gov or Stewart.Ken@bls.gov Note on Sampling Error in the Consumer Price Index The CPI is a statistical estimate that is subject to sampling error because it is based upon a sample of retail prices and not the complete universe of all prices. BLS calculates and publishes estimates of the 1-month, 2-month, 6-month and 12-month percent change standard errors annually, for the CPI-U. These standard error estimates can be used to construct confidence intervals for hypothesis testing. For example, the estimated standard error of the 1 month percent change is 0.06 percent for the U.S. All Items Consumer Price Index. This means that if we repeatedly sample from the universe of all retail prices using the same methodology, and estimate a percentage change for each sample, then 95% of these estimates would be within 0.12 percent of the 1 month percentage change based on all retail prices. For a 1-month change of 0.2 percent in the All Items CPI for All Urban Consumers, we are 95 percent confident that the actual percent change based on all retail prices would fall between 0.08 and 0.32 percent. For the latest data, including information on how to use the estimates of standard error, see “Variance Estimates for Changes in the Consumer Price Index, January 2005- December 2005 in the CPI Detailed Report, February 2006.

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. 42 CPI Detailed Report - May 2007 Table 11.

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. 56 CPI Detailed Report - May 2007 Table 18.

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 32 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 cover approximately 87 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 in 87 urban areas across the country from about 50,000 housing units and approximately 23,000 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.

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 Northeast--Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont. The Midwest--Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. The South--Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia. 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). For both utility services, the consumption ranges specified in table P2 are the upper and lower limits of the bill sizes priced for the CPI. The average prices per therm and per kilowatt hour are calculated from bills priced within these ranges. 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. The average prices for 40 and 100 therms of natural gas, and for 500 kilowatt hours of electricity (shown in table P1) are calculated from a special price collection program. They are not used in the calculation of the CPI. Because heating and air-conditioning requirements vary by geographic location, climate, and weather conditions, it cannot be inferred that these consumption amounts represent those used by a typical residential consumer. These bills are used merely to track price changes over time for constant amounts of consumption, and to provide continuity with prices of natural gas and electricity formerly published in conjunction with the unrevised CPI. Fuel oil. Only #2 fuel oil (home heating oil) is priced. (See table P1.) 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) 114 CPI Detailed Report - May 2007 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. 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 unadjusted 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 2002 through December 2006 were replaced in January 2007. 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. The seasonal movement of All items and 54 other aggregations is derived by combining the seasonal movement of 73 selected components. Each year the seasonal status of every series is reevaluated based upon certain statistical criteria. If any of the 73 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 will be used before that period. Note: 44 of the 73 components are seasonally adjusted for 2007. 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 January 2007, BLS adjusted 37 series using Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment, including selected food and beverage items, fuel oil, motor fuels, vehicles, jewelry, admission to sporting events and educational books and supplies. For example, this procedure was used for the Motor fuel series to offset the effects of damage to oil refineries from Hurricane Katrina, as well as the effects of implementing new fuel requirements in the United States.
