(E.D.T.), THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1995 PRODUCER PRICE INDEXES -- SEPTEMBER 1995 The Producer Price Index for Finished Goods increased 0.3 percent seasonally adjusted from August to September, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. This followed a decline of 0.1 percent in August and no change in July. Prices received by domestic producers of intermediate goods inched down 0.l percent over the month after showing no change in each of the previous 2 months. Crude material prices advanced 1.9 percent after falling in August and July. (See table A.) Among finished goods, the index for finished foods turned up after showing no change in August, and the index for finished energy goods fell much less than in recent months. In addition, the index for finished goods less foods and energy moved up just slightly more in September (0.2 percent) than in August (0.1 percent). Table A.

Some percent changes shown here and elsewhere in this release may differ from those previously reported because indexes for May 1995 have been recalculated to incorporate late reports and corrections by respondents. All indexes are subject to revision 4 months after original publication. During the third quarter of 1995, prices received by domestic producers of finished goods advanced at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 0.9 percent, the same amount posted in the second quarter.
