Slide 2
Price Relatives

Price relatives are helpful in understanding and
interpreting changing economic and business
conditions over time.

A price relative shows how the current price per unit
for a given item compares to a base period price per
unit for the same item.
A price relative expresses the unit price in each period
as a percentage of the unit price in the base period.


A base period is a given starting point in time.
Price in period t
Price relative in period t =
( 100)
Base period price

Price Relatives

Example: Besco Products
The prices Besco paid for newspaper and
television ads in 2001 and 2011 are shown below.
Using 2001 as the base year, compute a 2011 price
index for newspaper and television ad prices.

Slide 5
Aggregate Price Indexes

An aggregate price index is developed for the specific
purpose of measuring the combined change of a
group of items.

An unweighted aggregate price index in period t,
denoted by It , is given by
 Pit
It 
( 100)
 Pi 0
where
Pit = unit price for item i in period t
Pi 0 = unit price for item i in the base period

Slide 6
Aggregate Price Indexes

With a weighted aggregate index each item in the
group is weighted according to its importance, which
typically is the quantity of usage.

Letting Qi = quantity for item i, the weighted aggregate
price index in period t is given by
 Pit Q i
It 
( 100)
 Pi 0 Q i
where the sums are over all items in the group

Slide 7
Aggregate Price Indexes

When the fixed quantity weights are determined
from the base-year usage, the index is called a
Laspeyres index.

When the weights are based on period t usage, the
index is a Paasche index.

Aggregate Price Indexes

Example: City of Rockdale
Data on energy consumption and expenditures
by sector for the city of Rockdale are given on the
next slide. Construct an aggregate price index for
energy expenditures in 2011 using 1990 as the base
year.

I 2011 
(100)  415
2.12(8,804)   2.32(20, 262)
The Paasche value being less than the
Laspeyres indicates usage has increased
faster in the lower-priced sectors.

Slide 12
Aggregate Price Indexes
Example: Annual Cost of Lawn Care
Dina Evers is pleased with her lovely lawn, but she
is concern about the increasing cost of maintaining it.
The cost includes mowing, fertilizing, watering, and
more.
Dina wants an index that measures the change in
the overall cost of her lawn care. Price and quantity
data for her annual lawn expenses are listed on the
next slide.

Some Important Price Indexes

Consumer Price Index (CPI)
• Primary measure of the cost of living in U.S.
•
Based on 400 items including food, housing,
clothing, transportation, and medical items.
•
Weighted aggregate price index with fixed weights
derived from a usage survey.
•
Published monthly by the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics.
•
Its base period is 1982-1984 with an index of 100.

Slide 21
Some Important Price Indexes

Producer Price Index (PPI)
• Measures the monthly changes in prices in primary
markets in the U.S.
• Used as a leading indicator of the future trend of
consumer prices and the cost of living.
• Covers raw, manufactured, and processed goods at
each level of processing.
•
•
Includes the output of manufacturing, agriculture,
forestry, fishing, mining, gas and electricity, and
public utilities.
Is a weighted average of price relatives using the
Laspeyres method.

Some Important Price Indexes

Dow Jones Averages
• Indexes designed to show price trends and
movements on the New York Stock Exchange.
• The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is based
on common stock prices of 30 industrial firms.
• The DJIA is not expressed as a percentage of baseyear prices.
• Another average is computed for 20 transportation
stocks, and another for 15 utility stocks.

Slide 24
Deflating a Series by Price Indexes

In order to correctly interpret business activity over
time when it is expressed in dollar amounts, we
should adjust the data for the price-increase effect.

Removing the price-increase effect from a time series
is called deflating the series.

Deflating actual hourly wages results in real wages
or the purchasing power of wages.

Deflating a Series by Price Indexes


McNeer Cleaners, with 46 branch locations, has
had the total sales revenues shown on the next
slide for the last five years. Deflate the sales revenue
figures on the basis of 1982-1984 constant dollars. Is
the increase in sales due entirely to the price-increase
effect?

Slide 29
Price Indexes: Other Considerations
Selection of Items
When the class of items is very large, a
representative group (usually not a random sample)
must be used.
The group of items in the aggregate index must be
periodically reviewed and revised if it is not
representative of the class of items in mind.

Slide 30
Price Indexes: Other Considerations
Selection of a Base Period
As a rule, the base period should not be too far from
the current period.
For example, a CPI with a 1945 base period would
be difficult for most individuals to understand, due
to unfamiliarity with conditions in 1945.
The CPI’s
base period
The base period for most indexes is
was changed
adjusted periodically to a more recent
to 1982-84
period of time.
in 1988.

Slide 31
Price Indexes: Other Considerations
Quality Changes
A basic assumption of a price index is that prices
over time are identified for the same item.
Is a product that has undergone a major quality
change the same product it was?
An increase in an item’s quality may or may not
result in a price increase . . . and a decrease in
quality may or may not result in a price decrease.

Slide 32
Quantity Indexes
An index used to measure changes in quantity levels
over time is called a quantity index.
A quantity relative shows how the current quantity
level for a single item compares to a base period
quantity level for the same item.
A weighted aggregate quantity index is computed
in much the same way as a weighted aggregate
price index.
