(E.D.T.), TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1995 PRODUCER PRICE INDEXES -- AUGUST 1995 The Producer Price Index for Finished Goods inched down 0.1 percent in August, seasonally adjusted, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U. S. Department of Labor reported today. The Finished Goods Price Index was unchanged in July and moved down 0.1 percent in June. As in July, prices received by domestic producers of intermediate goods were unchanged in August. Crude material prices declined 1.4 percent after falling 0.8 percent in the previous month. (See table A.) Among finished goods in August, a decrease in the index for energy goods outweighed a slight increase in prices for other finished goods. The index for finished goods other than foods and energy increased 0.1 percent in August after moving up 0.2 percent in each of the previous 3 months. Table A.

Net output price indexes for mining, manufacturing, and other industries Mining. The Producer Price Index for the net output of total domestic mining industries declined 4.3 percent in August after falling 3.6 percent in July and 2.3 percent in June. (Net output price indexes are not seasonally adjusted.) Prices for the oil and gas extraction industry group fell somewhat more in August (-6.1 percent) than in July (-5.6 percent). The indexes for the metal mining and the bituminous coal and lignite mining and industry groups both turned down after rising in July. Manufacturing. The Producer Price Index for total domestic manufacturing industries was unchanged in August after inching down 0.1 percent in July. In August, a 1.4 percent decline was registered for the industry group for petroleum refining. Prices increased, however, for the industry groups for paper and allied products (0.6 percent) and for food and kindred products (0.3 percent). Both indexes for the machinery industry groups were unchanged from July to August. Price movements for the other manufacturing industry groups were mixed but moderate in August. Other.
