(For a description of these indexes, see the explanation following the tables.) Table 1 contains data for the U.S. city average. Tables 2-6 contain data for the areas—28 metropolitan areas, 4 regions, 5 population size classes, and 16 cross classifications of area and population size class. Table 7 presents the relative importance of the individual area all-items indexes in the U.S. city average all-items in dexes. The relative importance of a component is its ex penditure or _value weight expressed as a percentage of all items within an area. When the value weights are collected—most recently during the 1972-73 Consumer Expenditure Survey—they represent average annual expenditures, and their relative importance ratios show approximately how the index population distributes expenditures among the components. Later, the relative importance ratios show how consumers would dis tribute their expenditures if they continued to buy the same quantities and qualities of goods and services as in the survey period. Consequently, in the period between major revisions, the value weights and their correspond ing relative importance ratios are adjusted solely by the different rates of price change among the various items. The relative importance increases for those items registering a greater than average price increase and decreases for those items registering a smaller than average price increase. Since consumption patterns are influenced by factors other than price change, such as income, variations in climate, family size, and availability of new and dif ferent kinds of goods and services, relative importance ratios cannot be used as estimates of current spending patterns or as indicators of changing consumer expend itures in the intervals between weight revisions. Relative importance ratios of components in the national or local area Consumer Price Indexes may be used in the construction of indexes for special combina tions of items. In such instances, relative importance ratios are used as weights to combine relative changes in prices of the selected components over specified periods.1 1 For a description of the procedure for deriving index weights from consumer expenditure data, see ch. VII, “Weighting Structure of the CPI, 1964,” in The Consumer Price Index: History and Techniques, BLS Bulletin 1517 (1966), pp. 45-75. For a description of the procedure for calculating special-purpose indexes, as well as the precautions that must betaken, see “Relative Importance of CPI Components,” Monthly Labor Review, Nov. 1961, pp. 1233-36 (Reprint No. 2377), and “Relative Importance of Items in the CPI,” Monthly Labor Review, Aug. 1954, pp. 891-96 (Reprint No. 2146). 1 TafeD® 1.

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 spend ing of the appropriate population group. Local data are then combined to obtain a U.S. city average. Separate indexes are also published for 28 local areas. Area in dexes do not measure differences in the level of prices among cities; they only measure the average change in prices for each area since the base period. The index measures price changes from a designated Bls introduced an important improvement in the reference date—1967—which equals 100.0. An increase cpi-u with release of the January 1983 data.

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. Effective with the January 1978 index, the Bureau of Labor Statistics began publishing cpi’s for two population groups: (1) a new cpi for all Urban Consumers (cpi-u) which covers ap proximately 80 percent of the total noninstitutional civilian population; and (2) a revised cpi for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (cpi-w) which represents about half the population covered by the cpi-u . The cpi-u includes, in addition to wage earners and clerical workers, groups which historically have been excluded from cpi coverage, such as professional, managerial, and technical workers, the self-employed, ‘■short-term workers, the unemployed, and retirees and others not in the labor force. % Bureau off Labor Statistics Regional Offices Region IV 1371 Peachtree Street, N.E.
