Information on the revision of the industrial producer price index 2021

A revision of the calculation of industrial producer price index was ended, in which there was a change from the original weighting structure for 2015 (domestic sales) on the new weighting structure of the year 2021 (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. ¨

Basic time series of basic indices 2015 average = 100 continues. Price indices with the base December 2015 = 100 are replaced with new price base December 2021 = 100. Thus calculated indices are 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. This ensures the continuation of the existing time series. From the time series with the base 2015 average = 100 is calculated time series with the base 2021 average = 100. Calculation of time series with the index base 2005 average =100 and 2010 average = 100 was ended by December 2022.
