(E.S.T.), FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1994 PRODUCER PRICE INDEXES---JANUARY 1994 The Producer Price Index for Finished Goods moved up 0.2 percent seasonally adjusted from December 1993 to January 1994, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. This followed a decline of 0.1 percent in December and a rise of 0.1 percent in November. Prices received by domestic producers of intermediate goods increased 0.2 percent in January after a decrease of the same size a month earlier. The Crude Goods Price Index advanced 1.3 percent over the month following a 2.4 percent drop in December. (See table A.) Among finished goods, the index for energy goods turned up after substantial declines in both November and December. In addition, prices for finished goods other than foods and energy moved up 0.4 percent following a 0.2 percent advance in December. Consumer food prices, however, turned down modestly. Table A.

In addition, data for September 1993 have been revised to reflect the availability of late reports and corrections by respondents. Before seasonal adjustment, the Producer Price Index for Finished Goods moved up 0.2 percent in January to 124.4 (1982=100). From January 1993 to January 1994, the Finished Goods Price Index rose 0.2 percent. During this same period, prices for consumer foods advanced 2.3 percent, the finished energy goods index fell 4.0 percent, and prices for finished goods other than foods and energy were up 0.4 percent. Both the Intermediate Goods Price Index and the Crude Goods Price Index were 0.8 percent higher in January 1994 than they had been a year earlier. Finished goods The Producer Price Index for finished energy goods moved up 0.8 percent in January on a seasonally adjusted basis following declines of more than 2 percent in each of the preceding 2 months. After dropping 5.3 percent in November and 8.5 percent in December, gasoline prices rebounded 6.5 percent in January. Home heating oil prices decreased 1.2 percent following drops of more than 10 percent in both November and December. By contrast, the residential gas index turned down after a slight December increase. Prices for consumer goods other than foods and energy moved up 0.3 percent over the month following a marginal rise of 0.1 percent in December. Passenger car prices climbed 1.3 percent after seasonal adjustment in the wake of a 0.5 percent advance in the previous month; before seasonal adjustment, new car prices were up 0.7 percent from December to January. In addition, the tobacco products index advanced 1.5 percent after increasing 0.6 percent in December. Indexes for periodicals circulation and prescription drugs also moved up more than in the previous month. Prices for alcoholic beverages and for soaps and detergents turned down after edging up in December, however, and newspaper circulation rates rose much less than a month before. Table B.

See note for table A. The capital equipment index rose 0.6 percent in January, twice as much as in December. Motor vehicle prices climbed considerably more than in the preceding month, and indexes for communication equipment, construction machinery, and electronic computers advanced after showing no change in December. Prices for civilian aircraft and agricultural machinery, however, rose less than in the prior month, and indexes for transformers and railroad equipment turned down after December increases. Prices for finished consumer foods fell 0.3 percent following a 0.6 percent December advance. The fresh vegetables index dropped 16.5 percent in January after sizable climbs in both November and December. Indexes for fresh fruits and melons and for milled rice also turned down following December increases, and prices for beef and veal and for fresh chicken eggs fell more than they did a month before. The index for processed chickens dropped after showing no change in December, and the rise in the dairy products index slowed. By contrast, prices for fish, pork, soft drinks, and pasta turned up following December decreases, and the index for shortening and cooking oils rose much more than in the preceding month. Intermediate goods The Producer Price Index for Intermediate Materials, Supplies, and Components advanced 0.2 percent in January after dropping by the same amount in December. Prices for energy goods rose slightly following a sizable decline in December. Indexes for durable manufacturing materials, foods and feeds, and construction materials, however, rose less in January than in the prior month. (See table B.) After falling 3.2 percent in December, the index for intermediate energy goods edged up 0.1 percent in January. Indexes for gasoline, natural gas to electric utilities, commercial electric power, and liquefied petroleum gas turned up following December decreases. Prices for diesel fuel and jet fuels fell considerably less than in December. In contrast, the index for industrial electric power fell more in January than in the previous month, industrial natural gas prices were unchanged after advancing in December, and the commercial natural gas index rose less than in the prior month. Prices for materials for nondurable manufacturing declined 0.2 percent after falling 0.3 percent in December. The index for miscellaneous basic organic chemicals turned up following a drop in the previous month, and prices for nitrogenates, processed yarns and threads, and woodpulp also turned up in January after falling in December. In addition, the primary basic organic chemicals index fell considerably less than in December. Prices for plastic resins and materials and for paper, however, fell more in January than in the prior month. The Producer Price Index for materials for durable manufacturing rose 0.2 percent in January after climbing 0.9 percent in December. Prices for hot rolled steel sheet and strip dropped 1.1 percent after a much smaller decline in the previous month. Indexes for hot rolled steel bars and for copper cathode rose much less in January than a month before, and primary aluminum prices turned down sharply after rising in December. In contrast, flat glass prices were unchanged after dropping substantially in December, and the plywood index rose more than a month earlier. In January, prices for intermediate foods and feeds moved up 0.2 percent following a 1.4 percent advance in the previous month. The prepared animal feeds index edged up 0.1 percent after a much larger advance in December. Indexes for crude vegetable oils and fluid milk products also rose far less than a month before. Flour prices turned down in January, and beef and veal prices fell more than in December. Indexes for confectionery materials, pork, and for canned milk products advanced after dropping in December, however, and condensed milk prices increased more than in the month before. Prices for materials and components for construction rose 0.4 percent in January following a 0.5 percent December advance. Indexes for millwork, plywood, softwood lumber, and plastic construction products rose in January, while prices for heating equipment, switchgear, and metal valves fell. Among other types of intermediate goods, indexes for aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment, aircraft engines and engine parts, internal combustion engines, and photographic supplies each rose about 1 percent in January after considerably smaller December advances. Crude goods The Producer Price Index for Crude Materials for Further Processing turned up 1.3 percent in January seasonally adjusted following a decline of 2.4 percent in the preceding month. The upturn was due to the index for crude energy materials, which climbed sharply after a substantial drop in December. In contrast, the crude foodstuffs and feedstuffs index turned down after rising in the prior month, and the basic industrial materials index rose less than it did a month earlier. (See table B.) The crude energy materials index turned up 3.8 percent following a decline of 8.9 percent in December. This upturn was broadly based. The natural gas to pipelines index advanced 7.2 percent after falling 6.3 percent in the preceding month. In addition, crude petroleum prices rose slightly after declining more than 15 percent in December, and the coal index also turned up after a sizable December decline. The crude foodstuffs and feedstuffs index turned down 0.9 percent in January after increasing by about the same amount in the prior month. The rise in the corn index slowed to 3.0 percent in January, a third as much as in December. Indexes for fresh and dry vegetables, Louisiana rough rice, wheat, and hay turned down after December advances. In addition, slaughter broiler prices fell much more than in the preceding month. The slaughter hogs index, however, turned up 6.8 percent after falling nearly 10 percent in December. The unprocessed finfish index climbed 38.8 percent after a marginal December decline, and the slaughter cattle index fell less than in the previous month. The rise in the crude nonfood materials less energy index slowed to 1.6 percent after increasing 2.3 percent in December. This deceleration was largely due to the iron and steel scrap index, which turned down 2.4 percent in January following a 2.1 percent increase in the previous month. Indexes for leaf tobacco, gold and silver ores, and raw cotton rose less than in December. In addition, the hardwood logs index dropped after remaining unchanged for the previous 5 months. Conversely, the pulpwood logs index turned up after a slight decline a month earlier, and the copper base scrap index rose more than a month ago. The softwood logs, bolts, and timber index continued to advance considerably. Net output price indexes for mining, manufacturing, and other industries Mining. The Producer Price Index for the net output of total domestic mining industries rose 3.6 percent in January following a 5.8 percent decline in December. (Net output price indexes are not seasonally adjusted.) In January, prices for the oil and gas extraction industry group turned up 4.8 percent after falling 8.2 percent a month earlier. Prices for the bituminous coal and lignite mining industry advanced 1.4 percent after declining slightly in the previous month. The metal mining industry group index rose 1.4 percent, about the same as in December. By contrast, the index for the anthracite mining industry was unchanged after increasing a month earlier. In January, the Producer Price Index for total mining industries stood at 74.1 (December 1984=100), 5.4 percent lower than a year earlier. Manufacturing. The Producer Price Index for total domestic manufacturing industries increased 0.3 percent in January after falling 0.4 percent in December. Price decreases for the petroleum refining industry group slowed from 11.1 percent in December to 0.3 percent in January. In addition, prices rose more than in the previous month for the industry groups for printing and publishing, lumber and wood products, leather and leather products, and transportation equipment. By contrast, the rise in the index for tobacco manufactures decelerated to 1.7 percent in January from 3.4 percent a month earlier. Price increases also slowed for the industry groups for primary metal industries and for furniture and fixtures. The index for the net output of the domestic manufacturing sector stood at 119.2 in December (December 1984=100), 0.7 percent higher than its level of a year earlier. Other. Among other industries, prices turned up after falling in December for passenger car rental, tour operators, hotels and motels, local trucking with storage, marine cargo handling, and for truck rental and leasing. In addition, the newly introduced index for offices and clinics of doctors of medicine increased 1.5 percent in January. By contrast, prices turned down substantially after rising a month earlier for airports and airport services and for travel agencies. The index for radio broadcasting fell far more in January than a month earlier. Prices increases slowed for scheduled air cargo and passenger transportation and for natural gas utilities. Resampling of industries Effective with this release, another set of resampled industries is introduced. Under the resampling procedure, the sample for an industry is updated to reflect current conditions more accurately when the structure, membership, technology, or product mix of an industry has shifted significantly. The Bureau of Labor Statistics published the first results of this systematic process in July 1986. Subsequent efforts have been completed at 6-month intervals. Thirty-five new or resampled industries are being introduced this month. Among the newly introduced series are data for computer terminals, computer peripheral equipment, and for offices and clinics of doctors of medicine. Indexes for these industries and most of their products will continue to appear in table 5 of the monthly detailed report, Producer Price Indexes.

Pharmaceuticals. Effective this month, experimental indexes for the pharmaceutical preparations industry and its products, designated as industry code 9811, are available on a monthly basis upon request. These experimental indexes differ from those published for the pharmaceutical preparations industry (industry code 2834) in table 5 of Producer Price Indexes in that the experimental indexes include a sample of prescription pharmaceuticals produced in Puerto Rico as well as those produced in the United States, while the table 5 indexes (like all other indexes in the detailed report) exclude Puerto Rico.

Recalculation of Seasonal Adjustment Factors Effective with this release, seasonal adjustment factors have been recalculated to reflect 1993 price movement patterns for stage-ofprocessing (SOP) and commodity groupings. This routine annual recalculation may affect seasonally adjusted indexes and percent changes from January 1989 to the present. Revised seasonally adjusted data for this period, as well as seasonal factors to be used through December 1994, are available on request from BLS. Table C shows 1993 monthly seasonally adjusted percent changes for the three major SOP categories calculated with the old seasonal factors, compared with the percent changes for recalculated indexes that incorporate the new seasonal factors.
