CONSUMER PRICE INDEX – JUNE 2013 

The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 0.5 percent in June on a 

seasonally adjusted basis, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Over the last 12 months, 

the all items index increased 1.8 percent before seasonal adjustment. 

The gasoline index rose sharply in June and accounted for about two thirds of the seasonally adjusted all 

items change. Other energy indexes were mixed, with the electricity index rising, but the indexes for 

natural gas and fuel oil declining. The food index increased in June as the index for food at home turned 

up after declining in May. 

The index for all items less food and energy increased 0.2 percent in June, the same increase as in May. 

Advances in the indexes for shelter, medical care, and apparel accounted for most of the rise, with 

increases in the indexes for new vehicles and household furnishings and operations also contributing. 

The indexes for airline fares, used cars and trucks, and recreation all declined in June. 

The all items index increased 1.8 percent over the last 12 months, an increase from last month’s 1.4 

percent figure. The index for all items less food and energy has risen 1.6 percent over the last year, the 

smallest 12-month change since June 2011. The energy index has risen 3.2 percent over the span, and 

the food index has increased 1.4 percent.

Consumer Price Index Data for June 2013 

Food 

The food index increased 0.2 percent in June after declining 0.1 percent in May. The food at home 

index, which fell 0.3 percent in May, increased 0.2 percent in June. Four of the six major grocery store 

food group indexes posted increases. The indexes for cereals and bakery products and for meats, poultry, 

fish, and eggs both increased 0.4 percent. The indexes for nonalcoholic beverages and for other food at 

home each increased 0.2 percent in June after declining in May. In contrast to these increases, the 

indexes for fruits and vegetables and for dairy and related products both declined slightly in June, falling 

0.1 percent. Over the last 12 months, the index for food at home has risen 0.9 percent, with all the major 

food group indexes increasing except nonalcoholic beverages, which declined 0.9 percent. The index for 

food away from home rose 0.2 percent in June, the same increase as in May, and has increased 2.2 

percent over the last 12 months. 

Energy 

The energy index rose 3.4 percent in June after increasing 0.4 percent in May. The gasoline index, 

which was unchanged in May, rose 6.3 percent in June and accounted for almost all of the energy 

increase. (Before seasonal adjustment, gasoline prices rose 0.6 percent in June.) The electricity index 

also increased in June, rising 0.2 percent. However, the fuel oil index fell 0.5 percent, its fourth 

consecutive decline, and the index for natural gas decreased 0.4 percent, ending a streak of four 

consecutive increases. All the major energy component indexes have increased over the past 12 months. 

The index for natural gas rose 11.7 percent while the gasoline index increased 2.8 percent. The indexes 

for electricity and fuel oil rose more modestly, increasing 1.9 percent and 1.8 percent, respectively. 

All items less food and energy 

The index for all items less food and energy increased 0.2 percent in June. The shelter index, which rose 

0.3 percent in May, increased 0.2 percent in June. The indexes for rent and owners’ equivalent rent both 

increased 0.2 percent. The index for medical care, which declined in May, increased 0.4 percent in June, 

its largest increase since last July. The index for medical care commodities, which declined 0.5 percent 

in May, rose 0.5 percent in June as the prescription drug index turned up. The index for medical care 

services rose 0.4 percent in June after being unchanged in May. The apparel index increased 0.9 percent 

in June, its largest increase since August 2011. The index for new vehicles, unchanged in May, rose 0.3 

percent in June. The indexes for household furnishings and operations, personal care, and tobacco also 

increased in June. In contrast to these increases, the index for airline fares declined in June, falling 1.7 

percent after rising 2.2 percent in May. The index for used cars and trucks fell for the second month in a 

row, declining 0.4 percent. The recreation index also declined, falling 0.1 percent. 

The index for all items less food and energy increased 1.6 percent for the 12 months ending June. The 

shelter index increased 2.3 percent over that span, the index for medical care rose 2.1 percent, and the 

new vehicles index rose 1.2 percent. The index for used cars and trucks was one of the few to decline 

over the last 12 months, falling 2.3 percent.

Not seasonally adjusted CPI measures 

The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 1.8 percent over the last 12 

months to an index level of 233.504 (1982-84=100). For the month, the index increased 0.2 percent prior 

to seasonal adjustment. 

The Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) increased 1.8 

percent over the last 12 months to an index level of 230.002 (1982-84=100). For the month, the index 

increased 0.3 percent prior to seasonal adjustment. 

The Chained Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (C-CPI-U) increased 1.6 percent over the 

last 12 months. For the month, the index increased 0.2 percent on a not seasonally adjusted basis. Please 

note that the indexes for the post-2011 period are subject to revision. 

The Consumer Price Index for July 2013 is scheduled to be released on Thursday, August 15, 

2013, at 8:30 a.m. (EDT).

Discontinuation of Department Store Inventory Indexes 

The Bureau of Labor Statistics will discontinue publication of its Department Store Inventory indexes 

after the release of the December 2013 CPI in mid-January 2014, and these values will no longer be 

uploaded to the Labstat database. For further information please contact Sharon Gibson at 202-691-6968 

or gibson.sharon@bls.gov. 

Publication Changes for Average Price Series 

The Bureau of Labor Statistics will discontinue publication of three average price series after the release 

of the June 2013 CPI in mid-July 2013. They are:

- utility (piped) gas, 40 therms; 

- utility (piped) gas, 100 therms; and 

- electricity, 500 kilowatt hours. 

The Bureau will, however, continue to publish average prices for utility (piped) gas on a per therm basis, 

and will continue to publish electricity prices on a per kilowatt hour basis. As such, users will be able to 

convert these data to any consumption amount. CPI Detailed Report table P1. Average residential 

prices for utility (piped) gas, electricity, and fuel oil, U.S. city average and selected areas will no longer 

be published. Data for fuel oil #2, per gallon (3.785 liters) will continue to be available in the CPI 

Average Price Data public database.

Brief Explanation of the CPI 

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average change in prices over time of goods and 

services purchased by households. The Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes CPIs for two population 

groups: (1) the CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W), which covers households 

of wage earners and clerical workers that comprise approximately 29 percent of the total population and 

(2) the CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) and the Chained CPI for All Urban Consumers (C-CPIU), which cover approximately 88 percent of the total population and include in addition to wage 

earners and clerical worker households, groups such as professional, managerial, and technical workers, 

the self-employed, short-term workers, the unemployed, and retirees and others not in the labor force. 

The CPIs are based on prices of food, clothing, shelter, and fuels, transportation fares, charges for 

doctors’ and dentists’ services, drugs, and other goods and services that people buy for day-to-day 

living. Prices are collected each month in 87 urban areas across the country from about 4,000 housing 

units and approximately 26,000 retail establishments-department stores, supermarkets, hospitals, filling 

stations, and other types of stores and service establishments. All taxes directly associated with the 

purchase and use of items are included in the index. Prices of fuels and a few other items are obtained 

every month in all 87 locations. Prices of most other commodities and services are collected every 

month in the three largest geographic areas and every other month in other areas. Prices of most goods 

and services are obtained by personal visits or telephone calls of the Bureau’s trained representatives. 
- 6 - 

In calculating the index, price changes for the various items in each location are averaged together with 

weights, which represent their importance in the spending of the appropriate population group. Local 

data are then combined to obtain a U.S. city average. For the CPI-U and CPI-W separate indexes are 

also published by size of city, by region of the country, for cross-classifications of regions and 

population-size classes, and for 27 local areas. Area indexes 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. 

For the C-CPI-U data are issued only at the national level. It is important to note that the CPI-U and 

CPI-W are considered final when released, but the C-CPI-U is issued in preliminary form and subject to 

two annual revisions. 

The index measures price change from a designed reference date. For the CPI-U and the CPI-W the 

reference base is 1982-84 equals 100. The reference base for the C-CPI-U is December 1999 equals 

100. An increase of 16.5 percent from the reference base, for example, is shown as 116.500. This 

change can also be expressed in dollars as follows: the price of a base period market basket of goods 

and services in the CPI has risen from $10 in 1982-84 to $11.65.

Information and Analysis Section on (202) 691-7000. 

Note on Sampling Error in the Consumer Price Index 

The CPI is a statistical estimate that is subject to sampling error because it is based upon a sample of 

retail prices and not the complete universe of all prices. BLS calculates and publishes estimates of the 1-

month, 2-month, 6-month and 12-month percent change standard errors annually, for the CPI-U. These 

standard error estimates can be used to construct confidence intervals for hypothesis testing. For 

example, the estimated standard error of the 1 month percent change is 0.04 percent for the U.S. All 

Items Consumer Price Index. This means that if we repeatedly sample from the universe of all retail 

prices using the same methodology, and estimate a percentage change for each sample, then 95% of 

these estimates would be within 0.08 percent of the 1 month percentage change based on all retail 

prices. For example, for a 1-month change of 0.2 percent in the All Items CPI for All Urban 

Consumers, we are 95 percent confident that the actual percent change based on all retail prices would 

fall between 0.12 and 0.28 percent. For the latest data, including information on how to use the estimates 

of standard error, see “Variance Estimates for Price Changes in the Consumer Price Index, JanuaryDecember 2012”. These data are available on the CPI home page (http://www.bls.gov/cpi), or by using 

the following link: http://www.bls.gov/cpi/cpivar2012.pdf 

Calculating Index Changes 

Movements of the 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 example below illustrates the computation 

of index point and percent changes. 
- 7 - 

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

A Note on Seasonally Adjusted and Unadjusted 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 changes are usually preferred 

since they eliminate the effect of changes that normally occur at the same time and in about the same 

magnitude every year--such as price movements resulting from changing climatic conditions, production 

cycles, model changeovers, holidays, and sales. 

The unadjusted data are of primary interest to consumers concerned about the prices they actually pay. 

Unadjusted data also are used extensively for escalation purposes. Many collective bargaining contract 

agreements and pension plans, for example, tie compensation changes to the Consumer Price Index 

before adjustment for seasonal variation. 

Seasonal factors used in computing the seasonally adjusted indexes are derived by the X-12-ARIMA 

Seasonal Adjustment Method. Seasonally adjusted indexes and seasonal factors are computed annually. 

Each year, the last 5 years of seasonally adjusted data are revised. Data from January 2008 through 

December 2012 were replaced in January 2013. Exceptions to the usual revision schedule were: the 

updated seasonal data at the end of 1977 replaced data from 1967 through 1977; and, in January 2002, 

dependently seasonally adjusted series were revised for January 1987-December 2001 as a result of a 

change in the aggregation weights for dependently adjusted series. For further information, please see 

“Aggregation of Dependently Adjusted Seasonally Adjusted Series,” in the October 2001 issue of the 

CPI Detailed Report.

Effective with the publication of data from January 2006 through December 2010 in January 2011, the 

Video and audio series and the Information technology, hardware and services series were changed from 
- 8 - 

independently adjusted to dependently adjusted. This resulted in an increase in the number of seasonal 

components used in deriving seasonal movement of the All items and 54 other lower level aggregations, 

from 73 for the publication of January 1998 through December 2005 data to 82 for the publication of 

seasonally adjusted data for January 2006 and later. Each year the seasonal status of every series is 

reevaluated based upon certain statistical criteria. If any of the 82 components change their seasonal 

adjustment status from seasonally adjusted to not seasonally adjusted, not seasonally adjusted data will 

be used in the aggregation of the dependent series for the last 5 years, but the seasonally adjusted 

indexes before that period will not be changed. Note: 37 of the 82 components are not seasonally 

adjusted for 2013. 

Seasonally adjusted data, including the all items index levels, are subject to revision for up to five years 

after their original release. For this reason, BLS advises against the use of these data in escalation 

agreements. 

 Effective with the calculation of the seasonal factors for 1990, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has used 

an enhanced seasonal adjustment procedure called Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment for some 

CPI series. Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment allows for better estimates of seasonally 

adjusted data. Extreme values and/or sharp movements which might distort the seasonal pattern are 

estimated and removed from the data prior to calculation of seasonal factors. Beginning with the 

calculation of seasonal factors for 1996, X-12-ARIMA software was used for Intervention Analysis 

Seasonal Adjustment. 

For the seasonal factors introduced in January 2013, BLS adjusted 31 series using Intervention Analysis 

Seasonal Adjustment, including selected food and beverage items, motor fuels, electricity and vehicles. 

For example, this procedure was used for the Motor fuel series to offset the effects of events such as 

damage to oil refineries from Hurricane Katrina. 

For a complete list of Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment series and explanations, please refer to 

the article “Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment”, located on our website at 

http://www.bls.gov/cpi/cpisapage.htm.

6 Indexes on a November 1996=100 base.

NOTE: Local area indexes are byproducts of the national CPI program. Each local index has a smaller sample size than the national index and is, therefore,

subject to substantially more sampling and other measurement error. As a result, local area indexes show greater volatility than the national index, although

their long-term trends are similar. Therefore, the Bureau of Labor Statistics strongly urges users to consider adopting the national average CPI for use in

their escalator clauses.

NOTE: Index applies to a month as a whole, not to any specific date.

1 The C-CPI-U is designed to be a closer approximation to a cost-of-living index in that it, in its final form, accounts for any substitution that consumers

make across item categories in response to changes in relative prices. Since the expenditure data required for the calculation of the C-CPI-U are

available only with a time lag, the C-CPI-U is being issued first in preliminary form using the latest available expenditure data at that time and is subject

to two revisions.

NOTE: Indexes for 2013 are intial estimates. Indexes for 2012 are interim adjustments. Data prior to 2012 are final.

NOTE: Index applies to a month as a whole, not to any specific date.

1 The ’effect’ of an item category is a measure of that item’s contribution to the All items price change. For example, if the Food index had an effect of 0.40,

and the All items index rose 1.2 percent, then the increase in food prices contributed 0.40 / 1.2, or 33.3 percent, to that All items increase. Said another

way, had food prices been unchanged for that month the change in the All items index would have been 1.2 percent minus 0.40, or 0.8 percent. Effects

can be negative as well. For example, if the effect of food was a negative 0.1, and the All items index rose 0.5 percent, the All items index actually would

have been 0.1 percent higher (or 0.6 percent) had food prices been unchanged. Since food prices fell while prices overall were rising, the contribution

of food to the All items price change was negative (in this case, -0.1 / 0.5, or minus 20 percent).

2 A statistic’s margin of error is often expressed as its point estimate plus or minus two standard errors. For example, if a CPI category rose 0.6 percent,

and its standard error was 0.15 percent, the margin of error on this item’s 1-month percent change would be 0.6 percent, plus or minus 0.3 percent.

3 If the current seasonally adjusted 1-month percent change is greater than the previous published 1-month percent change, then this column identifies

the closest prior month with a 1-month percent change as (L)arge as or (L)arger than the current 1-month change. If the current 1-month percent change

is smaller than the previous published 1-month percent change, the most recent month with a change as (S)mall or (S)maller than the current month

change is identified. If the current and previous published 1-month percent changes are equal, a dash will appear. Standard numerical comparisons are

used. For example, 0.8% is greater than 0.6%, -0.4% is less than -0.2%, and -0.2% is less than 0.0%. Note that a (L)arger change can be a smaller

decline, for example, a -0.2% change is larger than a -0.4% change, but still represents a decline in the price index. Likewise, (S)maller changes can

be increases, for example, a 0.6% change is smaller than 0.8%, but still represents an increase in the price index. In this context, a -0.2% change is

considered to be smaller than a 0.0% change.

1 The ’effect’ of an item category is a measure of that item’s contribution to the All items price change. For example, if the Food index had an effect of 0.40,

and the All items index rose 1.2 percent, then the increase in food prices contributed 0.40 / 1.2, or 33.3 percent, to that All items increase. Said another

way, had food prices been unchanged for that year the change in the All items index would have been 1.2 percent minus 0.40, or 0.8 percent. Effects

can be negative as well. For example, if the effect of food was a negative 0.1, and the All items index rose 0.5 percent, the All items index actually would

have been 0.1 percent higher (or 0.6 percent) had food prices been unchanged. Since food prices fell while prices overall were rising, the contribution

of food to the All items price change was negative (in this case, -0.1 / 0.5, or minus 20 percent).

2 A statistic’s margin of error is often expressed as its point estimate plus or minus two standard errors. For example, if a CPI category rose 2.6 percent,

and its standard error was 0.25 percent, the margin of error on this item’s 12-month percent change would be 2.6 percent, plus or minus 0.5 percent.

3 If the current 12-month percent change is greater than the previous published 12-month percent change, then this column identifies the closest prior

month with a 12-month percent change as (L)arge as or (L)arger than the current 12-month change. If the current 12-month percent change is smaller

than the previous published 12-month percent change, the most recent month with a change as (S)mall or (S)maller than the current month change is

identified. If the current and previous published 12-month percent changes are equal, a dash will appear. Standard numerical comparison is used. For

example, 2.0% is greater than 0.6%, -4.4% is less than -2.0%, and -2.0% is less than 0.0%. Note that a (L)arger change can be a smaller decline, for

example, a -0.2% change is larger than a -0.4% change, but still represents a decline in the price index. Likewise, (S)maller changes can be increases,

for example, a 0.6% change is smaller than 0.8%, but still represents an increase in the price index. In this context, a -0.2% change is considered to be

smaller than a 0.0% change.
