Beginning with release of the CPI for January 1987 on February 27, 1987, the Bureau will introduce revised versions of the current CPI's both for All Urban Consumers and for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers. The revised CPI's will reflect more current population and spending patterns and numerous technical enhancements. See page 3 for further details. Price Movements October 1986 The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers rose 0.1 percent before seasonal adjustment in October to a level of 330.5 (1967 = 100). For the 12-month period ended in October, the CPI-U has increased 1.5 percent. The Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) was virtually unchanged in October, prior to seasonal adjustment. The October 1986 CPI-W level of 325.0 (1967 = 100) was 1.2 percent higher than the index in October 1985. (CPI-U) CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U)—seasonally adjusted changes On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI-U rose 0.2 percent in October following an increase of 0.3 percent in September. The energy index, which had turned upward in September, declined 2.2 percent in October, reflecting decreases in prices for electricity, motor fuel, and fuel oil. Food and shelter costs—up 0.3 and 0.4 percent, respectively—increased slightly less than in September. Excluding food, shelter, and energy, the CPl-u advanced 0.4 percent in October after increasing 0.2 percent in September. Increases in the indexes for new cars, automobile finance charges, and automobile insurance accounted for virtually all of that acceleration. During the first 10 months of 1986, the CPI-U rose at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 0.7 percent, held down by energy prices, which declined at an annual rate of 22.7 percent. The CPI-U excluding energy advanced at a 3.8-percent annual rate for the first 10 months of 1986 compared to a 4.0-percent increase in the 12 months ended in December 1985. The housing component, which rose 0.2 percent in September, was virtually unchanged in October, as declines in the indexes for fuel and other utilities and household furnishings and operations offset an increase in shelter costs. Charges for electricity, reflecting a shift to lower winter rates and some rate restructuring, declined a record 4.4 percent. Fuel oil prices, which recorded their first increase of 1986 in September, turned down in October by 1.4 percent. Although charges for natural gas rose 0.9 percent in October, their prices, as well as those for fuel oil and electricity, were lower in October than at the end of 1985. Shelter costs rose 0.4 percent in October. The transportation component rose 0.1 percent in October following an increase of 0.4 percent in September. The turnaround in prices for motor fuels caused the smaller October advance. Gasoline prices—down 2.4 percent in October, following a similar Septemberrise—havedeclined 30.8 percent in the first 10 months of 1986. As of October, gasoline prices were 38.7 percent below their peak level of March 1981. However, most other private transportation components rose more than in September. The new car index rose 0.8 percent, following a 0.2-percent rise in September. Higher priced 1987 models represented about 43 percent of the new car sample in October. (For a report on quality change for 1987 cars, see Producer Price Indexes Data for October 1986, page 4.) Automobilefinancingcharges, which dropped a record 6.1 percent in September, rose 3.4 percent, largely due to the elimination of manufacturer financing concessions. Nevertheless, financing charges have declined 11.7 percent during the first 10 months of 1986. Table A.

Used car prices rose slightly for the second consecutive month following 7 months of declines. The index for public transportation was virtually unchanged in October. The food and beverage component increased 0.3 percent in October. Grocery store food prices rose 0.4 percent, the same as in September. Advances in the indexes for beef, fresh fruits and vegetables, and dairy products accounted for virtually all of the October increase. Beef prices rose 1.5 percent, the same as in September. Among other components of the meats, poultry, fish, and eggs category, pork, poultry, and egg prices, each declined in October. The 0.2-percent drop in pork prices follows a 16.6-percent increase during the preceding 4 months. Poultry and egg prices— down 0.7 and 0.9 percent, respectively—declined for the second consecutive month following large increases in July and August. Freshfruitand vegetable prices registered their fourth consecutive advance, increasing 1.6 percent in October after declining 6.1 percent during the first 6 months of 1986. The index for dairy products rose 0.6 percent in October, largely due to a 0.8-percent increase in milk prices, their largest in 2 years.

Clothing prices rose 0.2 percent, and charges for apparel services increased 0.4 percent in October. The medical care component increased 0.6 percent in October to a level 7.7 percent above a year ago. In October, the index for medical care commoditiesprescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and medical supplies—rose 0.3 percent. The index for medical care services increased 0.6 percent, with the costs of physicians' services and hospital rooms up 0.5 and 0.6 percent, respectively. The index for entertainment rose 0.3 percent in October, the same as in September. The other goods and services component turned upward in October, increasing 0.4 percent. CPl for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W)—seasonally adjusted changes On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPl for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers rose 0.1 percent in October. The Consumer Price Index Revision The Bureau of Labor Statistics will begin publishing a revised Consumer Price Index (CPI) with the release of the January 1987 index in February 1987. As a result of the revision, both the CPI-U and the CPIW will have updated expenditure weights based upon data tabulated from 3 years (1982, 1983, and 1984) of the Consumer Expenditure Survey, replacing the current expenditure weights based on 1972-73 data. The Bureau periodically revises the expenditure weights so that the CPI reflects price changes of items currently being purchased by consumers. The January 1987 CPI also will introduce a greatly enhanced housing survey which will improve the rental equivalence measure of homeownership costs in both the CPI-U and CPI-W. The new housing sample was designed to represent optimally both owners and renters in the estimation of shelter costs. A number of methodological and sampling advances first introduced in the 1978 revision also have been enhanced and will be incorporated into the CPI for January 1987. For example, the selection of the urban areas and the allocation of outlet samples in which prices are collected for the CPI were done by the Bureau with the primary objective of producing the most accurate national CPI possible with the funds available. The January 1987 index also will be based, for the first time on the geographic distribution of consumers as of the 1980 Census of Population. The current CPI uses the 1970 Census of Population. The requirement to allocate the sample so as to provide the most accurate national CPI did result in some local areas not having samples sufficient to permit frequent publication. Therefore, beginning in January 1987, the Bureau will publish a number of local area CPI'S less frequently. The areas affected by the changes in publication are identified later in this article. Both the CPI-U and the CPI-W published for January 1987 will be linked to the present series of each index as of December 1986 to provide a continuous series. The linking will be accomplished by setting the index levels of the revised CPI with the updated expenditure weights and samples equal to those published for the present series in December 1986. Each index will move upward or downward from the December 1986 level in accordance with subsequent changes in prices. As in the past, the Bureau will publish selected indexes using the old expenditure weights for 6 months after the issuance of the revised CPI. Unlike earlier revi- sions, these overlap indexes will not be based on the old samples and will differ from the revised indexes only by their expenditure weights. The base period for revised CPI issued for January 1987 will be 1967 = 100, the same as for the present index. In addition to the national all-city average CPI-U and CPI-W indexes, the Bureau now publishes indexes for 28 local areas. In 1987, it will continue to publish indexes for all but one of these areas—Northeast Pennsylvania (Scranton-Wilkes-Barre). Because of the requirement to allocate the sample to provide the most accurate national CPI possible, 14 of the remaining 27 published areas will have a change in the frequency of their publication. Based on the population growth since 1970 and expanded geographic definitions of Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Areas issued by the Office of Management and Budget, the San Francisco-OaklandSan Jose area has superseded the Detroit-Ann Arbor area as the fifth largest area covered by the CPI. For this reason, beginning with data for January 1987, the San Francisco area will be published monthly while the Detroit area will be published only for even-numbered months rather than monthly. Twelve areas now published bimonthly will be compiled on a semiannual average basis. These areas are: Buffalo-Niagara Falls, N.Y.; Cincinnati-Hamilton, Ohio-Ky.-Ind; Kansas City, Mo.-Kansas City, Kan.; Milwaukee, Wis.; Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minn.-Wis.; Atlanta, Ga.; Anchorage, Alaska; Denver-Boulder, Colo.; Honolulu, Hawaii; Portland-Vancouver, Ore.-Wash.; San Diego, Calif.; and Seattle-Tacoma, Wash. These semiannual average indexes, which refer to the arithmetic averages of the 6-month periods from January through June and July through December, will be published with release of the CPI for July and January, respectively, i.e., in the months of August and February. These series will be compiled and published on their present reference bases, 1967 = 100 for all areas other than Anchorage, which is on an October 1967 reference base. Also, the Cleveland-Akron-Lorain, Ohio, indexes will be published for odd-numbered rather then even-numbered months. Indexes also are currently published bimonthly for 4 regions, 5 size classes, and 16 region-by-size groups. Beginning with January 1987, publication will become monthly; two of the size classes will be combined; and two of the region-by-size groups will be eliminated.

The population size classes are aggregations of areas which have urban population as defined: A-1 More than 4,000,000. A-2 - 1,250,000 to 4,000,000. B - 385,000 to 1,250,000. C 75,000 to 385,000. D Less than 75,000. Population size class A is the aggregation of population size classes A-1 and A-2. After December 1986, indexes for the regions, size classes, and region/size class cross-classes will be published on a monthly basis. 9 A-1 and A-2 will be aggregated to produce a population size class A index after December 1986. A-1 and A-2 will no longer be published separately after December 1986. NOTE: Local area CPI indexes are by-products of the national CPI program. Because each local index is a small subset of the national index, it has a smaller sample size and is, therefore, subject to substantially more sampling and other measurement error than the national index. As a result, local area indexes show greater volatility than the national index, although their long-term trends are quite similar. Therefore, the Bureau of Labor Statistics strongly urges users to consider adopting the national average CPI for use in escalator clauses. 49 Table 14.

LA.-Long Beach, Anaheim, Calif, is a combination of two SMSA's, and N.Y., N.Y.-Northeastern N.J. and Chicago, III.Northwestern Ind. are the more extensive Standard Consolidated Areas. Area definitions are those established by the Office of Management and Budget in 1973, except for Denver-Boulder, Colo, which does not include Douglas County. Definitions do not include revisions made since 1973. 3 Detroit, Mich, will no longer be published on a monthly basis after December 1986. Beginning after December 1986, a local index will be published for even numbered months only. 4 Due to smaller sample sizes in this area, data will no longer be published on a bi-monthly basis after December 1986. A local index will be published on a semi-annual average basis. * This index will no longer be published after December 1986. 8 After December 1986, Cleveland, Ohio will be published in odd instead of even numbered months. 7 After December 1986, this index series will be published on a monthly basis. Regions are defined as the four Census regions. The population size classes are aggregations of areas which have urban population as defined: A-1 More than 4,000,000. A-2 - 1,250,000 to 4,000,000. B - 385,000 to 1,250,000. C 75,000 to 385,000. D Less than 75,000. Population size class A is the aggregation of population size classes A-1 and A-2. After December 1986, indexes for the regions, size classes, and A-1 and A-2 will be aggregated to produce a population size class A index after December 1986. A-1 and A-2 will no longer be published separately after December 1986. NOTE: Local area CPI indexes are by-products of the national CPI program. Because each local index is a small subset of the national index, it has a smaller sample size and is, therefore, subject to substantially more sampling and other measurement error than the national index. As a result, local area indexes show greater volatility than the national index, although their long-term trends are quite similar. Therefore, the Bureau of Labor Statistics strongly urges users to consider adopting the national average CPI for use in escalator clauses. 63 Table 19.

The index measures price changes from a designated reference date—1967—which equals 100.0. An increase of 203 percent, for example, is shown as 303.0. 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 $30.30. For further details see BLS Handbook of Methods, Vol. H,"The Consumer Price Index," Bulletin 2134-2, April 1984. 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. The Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes CPi's for two population groups: (1) a CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) which covers approximately 80 percent of the total noninstitutional civilian population; and (2) a CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) which represents about half the population covered by the CPI-U. The CPIu includes, in addition to wage earners and clerical workers, 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 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 about 4,000 food stores, 24,000 rental units, and 28,000 establishments—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 by size of city, by region of the country, for cross-classifications of regions and population-size classes, and for 28 local areas. Area indexes do not measure differences in the level of prices 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. Index Point Change CPI Less previous index Equals index point change 315.5 303.5 12.0 Percent Change Index point difference Divided by the previous index Equals Results multiplied by one hundred Equals percent change 109 12.0 303.5 0.040 0.040 x 100 4.0 Homeownership Changes The Consumer Price Index (CPi) has been changed to incorporate a rental equivalence measure of homeowners' costs in accordance with plans announced by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) on October 27, 1981. For the CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), this change was effective with release of the index for January 1983 and for the CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPi-W), it was effective with the release of the January 1985 index. The rental equivalence approach calculates shelter costs of homeowners based on the implicit rent owners would have to pay to rent homes that they own. The old method calculated homeownership as home purchase, mortgage interest costs, property taxes, property insurance, and maintenance and repairs. The new homeownership component was introduced into both the CPI-U and the CPI-W in such a manner that in each case the indexes using the old and new methodologies were equal in the so-called "link month"—December 1982 for the CPI-U and December 1984 for the CPI-W. For more information, see the CPI Detailed Report for January 1983, pp. 7-13. Energy Prices Prices are usually available for the U.S. city average, 28 large urban areas, and 16 areas reflecting the four Census regions cross-classified by four 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 will appear, NA will also appear 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, except for electricity, are collected monthly by BLS representatives in the urban areas priced for the CPI. Electricity prices are collected monthly on mail questionnaires by the Department of Energy for BLS. 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. calculated from bills priced within these ranges. It should be noted that bills priced for the CPI are not only 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 (table P-l) are calculated from a special price collection program. They are not used in the calculation of the CPI. Since 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, to provide data for place-to-place price comparisons, and to provide continuity with prices of natural gas and electricity formerly published in conjunction with the unrevised Consumer Price Index. Fuel oil. Only #2 fuel oil (home heating oil) is priced. Prices are collected, in most cases, for quantities greater than one gallon. These prices are converted to a per gallon price for this program. Fuel oil prices reflect discounts for quantity and/or quick payment. Gasoline. Gasoline prices are collected at the pump from a sample of full service, mini-service, and selfserve gas stations. Approximate British Thermal Unit (BTU) values for some energy items are as follows, according to the source indicated: 1 therm = 100,000 BTU'S (U.S. Department of Energy). 1 kwh = 3,412 BTU'S (Edison Electric Institute) 1 gallon #2 fuel oil = 140,000 BTU'S (U.S. Department of Energy). Food Prices In the revised CPI, actual weighted average prices are calculated each month at the national level and for the four Census geographic regions. 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 satisfy the need for local area data. It should be noted, however, that the average food prices 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 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 P-2 are the upper and lower limits of the bill sizes priced for the Consumer Price Index. The average prices per therm and per kilowatt hour are 110 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 will appear. 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. In cases where the proportion of estimated prices used to calculate the average is considered too high, the average price will not be published and NA will appear for that item in the table. Because of space limitations in the table, the description for each item is abbreviated. More detailed specifications are available from BLS Regional Offices or from the Washinton Office upon request. 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-l 1 Seasonal Adjustment Method. The updated seasonal data at the end of 1977 replaced data from 1967 through 1977. Subsequent annual updates have replaced 5 years of seasonal data, e.g., data from 1981 through 1985 were replaced at the end of 1985. The seasonal movement of all items and 44 other aggregations is derived by combining the seasonal movement of 51 selected components. Each year the seasonal status of every series is reevaluated based upon certain statistical criteria. If any of the 51 components change their seasonal adjustment status from seasonally adjusted to not seasonally adjusted, not seasonally adjusted data will be used for the last 5 years, but the seasonally adjusted indexes will be used before that period. If any of the 51 components change their status from not seasonally adjusted to seasonally adjusted, seasonally adjusted data will be used for the last 5 years, but not seasonally adjusted indexes will be used before that 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 U .
