Price Movements July 1979

The Producer Price Index for Finished Goods rose 1.1 percent from June to July on a seasonally adjusted basis. The July advance was considerably larger than the increases in either May or June. Price increases for intermediate (semifinished) goods and crude materials also accelerated (table A).

Among finished goods, prices for consumer goods rose much more than in June: Food prices were unchanged after 3 consecutive months of falling prices, and prices for finished consumer goods excluding foods rose even more than in recent months. The increase in capital equipment prices also accelerated (table B).

Before seasonal adjustment, the Producer Price Index for Finished Goods rose 1.1 percent to 215.8 (1967= 100). Over the year, the Finished Goods Price Index increased 10.1 percent. The finished consumer foods index was up 6.7 percent from July 1978 to July 1979, the index for finished consumer goods excluding foods rose 12.8 percent, and capital equipment prices were 8.9 percent higher than a year ago. The Producer Price Index for

intermediate goods increased 13.1 percent over the year, and prices for crude materials advanced 17.1 percent.Finished goods

Finished consumer goods. The Producer Price Index for finished consumer goods (those eventually sold to retailers) rose 1.2 percent in July, much more than in each of the previous 3 months and about the same as in each month during the first quarter of this year. Prices for consumer nondurables other than foods continued to rise sharply and price increases for consumer durables accelerated, but consumer food prices were unchanged.

Much of the 1.9 percent rise in the index for consumer nonfood finished goods was due to continued sharp advances for energy items: Home heating oil prices climbed9.0 percent over the month, and gasoline prices were up 3.9 percent. When prices of energy items are excluded from this index, the July advance was 0.8 percent. Much of this increase was due to considerably higher prices for passenger cars and many other consumer durables, such as precious

Data for March 1979 have been revised to reflect the avalla- differ from those previously reported. All data are subject to revi- bility of late reports and corrections by respondents. For this sion 4 months after original publication, reason, some figures shown above and elsewhere in this report may r*> revised.

metal jewelry, floor coverings, dinnerware, lawnmowers, household flatware, household appliances, and sporting and athletic goods. Prices for many consumer nondurable goods other than fuels, however, rose less than 0.5 percent.

The finished consumer foods index was unchanged after3 months of declines. Lower prices for meats, poultry, fresh and dried vegetables, and eggs offset advances for roasted coffee, vegetable oil end products, confectionery end products, canned vegetables and juices, and bakery products.

Capital equipment The Producer Price Index for capital equipment was up 0.8 percent in July, after rising 0.7 percent in May and 0.5 percent in June. Prices rose considerably more than in most recent months for railroad equipment, metal forming machine tools, construction machinery, plastic and rubber industry machinery, office and store machinery, and hand tools. In contrast, motor truck prices declined more than in any month since November 1977.

Intermediate materialsThe Producer Price Index for intermediate materials,

supplies, and components advanced 1.9 percent seasonally adjusted from June to July, the largest monthly increase since the 2.2 percent advance in October 1974. Although prices for energy products continued to advance rapidly and food and feed prices turned up markedly, most of the acceleration in July was due to larger price increases for a broad variety of materials other than food and energy.

Prices for intermediate goods other than food and energy increased 1.3 percent over the month, far more than in either of the 2 previous months. This was primarily the result of sharper price advances among materials used in manufacturing. After 2 months of small increases, the durable manufacturing materials index advanced 1.8 percent. Prices rose sharply for steel mill products, pig iron and ferroalloys, precious metals, aluminum, lead, and zinc. The nondurable manufacturing materials category which also registered a sharp increase moved up 2.0 percent after June’s 0.8 percent rise. Price increases accelerated substantially for a number of petroleum-related products, including industrial chemicals, plastic resins and materials, synthetic rubber, gray fabrics, and paint materials. In contrast, prices for leather fell more sharply than in the previous month; leather prices had climbed very rapidly from mid-1978 through May.

Prices for construction materials moved up at a faster pace (0.7 percent) than in either May or June, but less than in any of the first 4 months of 1979. Price increases were registered for plywood, softwood lumber, structural clay products, bituminous paving materials, plastic construction products, and prepared paint. In contrast, prices for millwork and building paper and board each fell for the third consecutive month.

Among components for manufacturing, prices were considerably higher for motor vehicle parts, electronic components and accessories, and electric motors. Other intermediate nonfood nonenergy items which recorded

2


large increases included electric lamps and bulbs, mining machinery parts, metal forming machine tools parts, nonfarm tractor parts, and parts for farm machinery other than tractors.

The processed fuels and lubricants index advanced 4.0 percent, about the same as in recent months. Prices for liquefied petroleum gas rose nearly 16 percent, Large increases were also recorded for diesel fuel, residual fuel, and commercial jet fuel.

After a 4-month period of relative stability, the intermediate foods and feeds index moved up 6.7 percent, as prices for manufactured animal feeds climbed substantially. Flour, confectionery materials, and refined vegetable oils rose rapidly. On the other hand, prices fell for crude vegetable oils and animal fats and oils.Crude materials

The Producer Price Index for crude materials for further processing rose 1.8 percent in July on a seasonally adjusted basis, more than twice as much as in either of the 2 preceding months. The acceleration was largely due to an upturn in prices for crude food materials. Prices for crude energy-related materials (principally natural gas and crude petroleum) continued to climb, but prices for other nonfood materials generally declined.

The index for crude foodstuffs and feedstuffs increased2.1 percent, in contrast to the 1.2 percent drop in June. The largest advances in July occurred for green coffee prices (up more than 25 percent) and for corn prices, which advanced 16.1 percent following 3 months of considerably smaller increases. Prices for wheat, fluid milk, fresh fruits, and raw cane sugar also rose but much less than in June. Hog prices decreased substantially for the fifth consecutive month, and live poultry prices dropped for the second consecutive month. Prices for fresh and dried vegetables and cocoa beans turned down after sharp June increases. Cattle prices edged down, after 2 months of much larger declines.

Among energy-related materials, natural gas prices moved up more than 2 percent for the sixth time in the last 8 months. Crude petroleum prices rose substantially for the third consecutive month, although the July rise was not as large as in June.

Prices for crude materials other than food and energy fell 1.9 percent, after advancing 3.5 percent in the previous month. Prices for iron and steel scrap, cotton, and crude natural rubber decreased after substantial June advances. Hides and skins fell sharply for the third time in the last 4 months. Higher prices were registered, however, for nonferrous scrap and sand, gravel, and crushed stone*

Sample Changes in the July 1979 Producer Price Indexes

Data in this report reflect semiannual changes in the sample of commodities used to calculate Producer Price Indexes. Each year, changes in the commodity sample are made in the January and July indexes. Within the fixed weight concept, sample changes are designed to improve primary market coverage and to account for changes in production and marketing patterns.

Specifications for new commodities are listed in table16. The number of changes by major commodity group is shown in the following tabulation:

Eight products were added and ten products were dropped in the list of commodities used for calculating Producer Price Indexes in July 1979. The sample now includes 2,763 items, compared with 2,765 in January 1979. The principal sample change affected the stage-of- processing grouping for intermediate materials for nondurable manufacturing as a new subproduct class was introduced for rubber roll coverings, consisting of graphic arts, paper mill, steel mill, and industrial roll coverings.

Comprehensive relative importance figures are computed once each year in December. Data shown are expressed as a percent of total finished goods, total intermediate materials, or total crude materials. Data shown will not add up to 100.000 because not ali commodity components of each stage-of-processing (SOP) index are shown; relative importance figures shown account for about 87 percent of total finished goods, about 90 percent of total intermediate materials, and about 97 percent of total crude materials. For each commodity component of the finished goods index which is allocated to both capital equipment and finished consumer goods excluding foods, the relative importance figures shown reflects only the share

allocated to the SOP grouping under which it is listed. For example, the relative importance figure shown for household furniture under the SOP grouping for finished consumer goods excluding foods includes the share allocated to that SOP grouping but not the share allocated to capital equipment.

Technical Note: Test Data for Producer Price Index Revision

Test data from the pilot survey for the Producer Price Index (PPI) revision have been developed for the period beginning January 1978 and are published each month in table 14, “Producer price indexes for the net output of selected industries and products,” in this report. The revision is being undertaken as a comprehensive effort to make major improvements in the measurement of price changes by domestic producers of goods and services. The data now available are from a pilot survey conducted to test the methods and procedures for the comprehensive revision. The revision will be conducted on an industry-by- industry basis. The results for the first industries in the full- scale survey will be available in the fall of 1979. Coverage of all mining and manufacturing industries is scheduled for completion in 1984.

The four industries covered in the pilot survey are: Soybean oil mills (SIC 2075), newspaper printing and publishing (SIC 2711), concrete products other than block and brick (SIC 3272), and household laundry equipment (SIC 3633). These industries were selected because they offered a wide range of pricing problems on which to test the new techniques. Indexes covering some of these same industries will continue to be calculated under the old program. The new indexes will not begin replacing the old ones in the Producer Price Index until early 1980.

These pilot survey indexes differ from indexes in the current Producer Price Index in a number of important respects:

(1) They are industry-based indexes. The entire output of each industry is sampled, including secondary production and miscellaneous receipts. The current Producer Price Indexes are based on a sample of major products. Even the Industry- Sector Price Indexes (ISPI’s) are derived from these product indexes. The current ISPFs do not price miscellaneous receipts, and the prices for primary and secondary production are obtained from any producer of the product even if that producer does not belong to the industry. The newly published pilot survey indexes are derived from prices supplied strictly by producers within the industry. As a result, the pilot product indexes apply only to the production within the industry. After all mining and manufacturing industries are covered by the revision, product indexes will be constructed covering all production of the product.

(2) These new indexes are classified in accordance with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system and incorporate most features of the Census of Manufactures product code extensions of the SIC. The coding will make the data easier to use in conjunction with other industry-oriented economic data.

(3) Net output values o f shipments are used as weights in preparing the index. Net output values refer to the value of shipments leaving the industry. In contrast, the weights used in the current PPFs and ISPFs are gross shipment values, which include shipments within an industry. The resulting multiple counting of price changes is one of the major defects of the current indexes. The current stage-of-processing indexes partially correct this defect, but the new indexes consistently correct it at all levels.

(4) Increased emphasis is being given to obtaining actual transaction prices at the time o f shipment. Although it has been a general objective of the current program to obtain transaction prices, they have not been obtained for significant portions of the index. In addition, some products in the current PPI intentionally have been priced at order prices rather than shipment prices.

(5) Probability sampling was used to select the firms to be asked to report prices. As a result, firms of all sizes are included in the sample. In addition, within the firm, the individual items to be priced and the terms of the transaction were chosen using probability techniques. In the current PPI, major companies selected on a judgment basis are asked to report prices for volume-selling items under “typical” transaction terms.

Since this is a pilot survey, a number of changes will be introduced as the full-scale survey is put in place. These changes include the following:

(1) Greater product detail will generally be available because of larger sample sizes and increased capabilities to combine product areas that are not publishable by themselves. The 5-digit product class indexes, which cannot now be calculated, will be produced.

(2) Ultimately, the survey will cover all shipments by all 493 industries in mining and manufacturing. The present PPFs cover only about 50 percent of

73


this value; the pilot survey covers about 2 percent of it.

(3) Improved calculation techniques will be introduced, including the use of Census of Manufactures shipment data to weight the 7-digit product indexes to higher levels. The pilot indexes rely on the estimated relative importance of products based on shipment data derived from the survey itself.

(4) Estimates of sampling error will be published.For further information on the underlying concepts

and methodology of the Producer Price Index revision, see “Improving the Measurement of Producer Price Change,” by John F. Early, in the April 1978 issue of the Monthly Labor Review. Reprints are available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics upon request.

Brief Explanation of Producer Price Indexes

Producer Price Indexes measure average changes in prices received in primary markets of the United States by producers of commodities in all stages of processing.' These data were previously presented as the Wholesale Price index. The name “Producer Price Indexes” is now being used to reflect more accurately the coverage of the data. The sample used for calculating these indexes continues to contain nearly 2,800 commodities and about 10,000 quotations selected to represent the movement of prices of all commodities produced in the manufacturing, agriculture, forestry, fishing, mining, gas and electricity, and public utilities sectors. The universe includes all commodities produced or imported for sale in commercial transactions in primary markets in the United States.

Producer Price Indexes can be organized by stage of processing or by commodity, The stage of processing structure organizes products by degree of fabrication (i.e., finished goods, intermediate or semifinished goods, and crude materials). The commodity structure organizes products by similarity of end-use or material composition.

Finished goods are commodities that will not undergo further processing and are ready for sale to the ultimate user, either an individual consumer or a business firm. Capital equipment (formerly called producer finished

goods) includes commodities such as motor trucks, farm equipment, and machine tools. Finished consumer goods include foods and other types of goods eventually purchased by retailers and used by consumers. Consumer foods include unprocessed foods such as eggs and fresh vegetables, as well as processed foods such as bakery products and meats. Other finished consumer goods include durables such as automobiles, household furniture, and jewelry, and nondurables such as apparel and gasoline.

Intermediate materials, supplies, and components are commodities that have been processed but require further processing before they become finished goods. Examples of such semifinished goods include flour, cotton yarns, steel mill products, belts and belting, lumber, liquefied petroleum gas, paper boxes, and motor vehicle parts.

Crude materials for further processing include products entering the market for the first time which have not been manufactured or fabricated but will be processed before becoming finished goods. Scrap materials are also included. Crude foodstuffs and feedstuffs include items such as grains and livestock. Examples of crude nonfood materials include raw cotton, crude petroleum, natural gas, hides and skins, and iron and steel scrap.

75


For analysis of general price trends, stage of processing indexes are more useful than commodity grouping indexes. This is because commodity grouping indexes sometimes produce exaggerated or misleading signals of price changes by reflecting the same price movement through various stages of processing. For example, suppose that a price rise for steel scrap results in an increase in the price of steel sheet and then an advance in prices of automobiles produced from that steel. The All Commodities Price Index and the Industrial Commodities Price Index would reflect the same price movement three times— once for the steel scrap, once for the steel sheet, and once for the automobiles. This multiple counting occurs because the weighting structure for the All Commodities Index uses the total shipment values for all commodities at all stages of processing. On the other hand, the Finished Goods Price Index would reflect the change in automobile prices, the Intermediate Materials Price Index would reflect the steel sheet price change, and the Crude Materials Price Index would reflect the rise in the price of steel scrap. (See illustration.)

To the extent possible, prices used in calculating Producer Price Indexes apply to the first significant commercial transaction in the United States, from the production or central marketing point. Price data are generally collected monthly, primarily by mail questionnaire. Re-

A Note about Calculating index Changes

Movements of price 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 box below shows the computation of index point and percent changes.

Percent changes for 3-month and 6-month periods are expressed as annual rates that 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.

spondents are asked to provide net prices or to provide all applicable discounts. BLS attempts to base Producer Price Indexes on actual transaction prices; however, list or book prices are used if transaction prices are not available. Most prices are obtained directly from producing companies on a voluntary and confidential basis, but some prices are taken from trade publications or from other Government agencies. Prices generally are reported for the Tuesday of the week containing the 13th day of the month.

In calculating Producer Price Indexes, price changes for the various commodities are averaged together with weights representing their importance in the total net selling value of all commodities as of 1972. The detailed data are aggregated to obtain indexes for stage of processing groupings, commodity groupings, durability of product groupings, and a number of special composite groupings. Each index measures price changes from a reference period which equals 100.0 (usually 1967, as designated by the Office of Management and Budget). An increase of 85 percent from the reference period in the Finished Goods Price Index, for example, is shown as 185.0. This change can also be expressed in dollars, as follows: “The price of a representative sample of finished goods sold in primary markets in the United States has risen from $100 in 1967 to $185.”

A Note on Seasonally Adjusted 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 data usually are preferred because they eliminate the effect of changes that normally occur at about the same time and in about the same magnitude every year— such as price movements resulting from normal weather patterns, regular production and marketing cycles, model changeovers, seasonal discounts, and holidays. For this reason, seasonally adjusted data more clearly reveal the underlying cyclical trends. Seasonally adjusted data are subject to revision when seasonal factors are revised each year.

The unadjusted data are of primary interest to users who need information which can be related to the actual dollar values of transactions. Individuals requiring this information include marketing specialists, purchasing agents, budget and cost analysts, contract specialists, and commodity traders. Unadjusted data generally are used in escalating contracts such as purchase agreements or real estate leases.
