Information on the revision of the industrial producer price index
Currently we are preparing a revision of the calculation of industrial producer price index, which is a change from the original weighting structure for 2010 (domestic sales) on the new weighting structure of the year 2015 (domestic sales). There will be a slight variation of weights on the level of some aggregation of CZ-CPA on the three-digit and four-digit levels and a number of changes in the selection of reporting units and representatives. However, there was no fundamental change in the methodology for calculating indices.
Since January 2017 indices will be calculated with new weights 2015. Basic indices with the price base December 2010 = 100 will be replaced with new price base December 2015 = 100. Thus calculated indices will be from the four-digit level of CZ-CPA (and up) of the weighting scheme chained to the indices with the index base 2015 average = 100 and 2005 average = 100. This will ensure the continuation of the existing time series. Time series with the index base December 2005 = 100 will be ended by December 2016. Derived indices (month on month, year on year, ratio of rolling averages) will be calculated from the basic series 2015 average = 100.
Publication of price indices for January 2017 will be postponed in accordance with ‘Catalogue of Products 2017’ by one week to February 22, 2017.
