PRODUCER PRICE INDEXES – MARCH 2021 

The Producer Price Index for final demand increased 1.0 percent in March, seasonally adjusted, the U.S. 

Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Final demand prices rose 0.5 percent in February and 1.3 

percent in January. (See table A.) On an unadjusted basis, the final demand index moved up 4.2 percent 

for the 12 months ended in March, the largest advance since rising 4.5 percent for the 12 months ended 

September 2011. 

In March, almost 60 percent of the increase in the index for final demand can be traced to a 1.7-percent 

advance in prices for final demand goods. The index for final demand services moved up 0.7 percent. 

Prices for final demand less foods, energy, and trade services rose 0.6 percent in March following an 

increase of 0.2 percent in February. For the 12 months ended in March, the index for final demand less 

foods, energy, and trade services moved up 3.1 percent, the largest advance since climbing 3.1 percent 

for the 12 months ended September 2018.

Final Demand 

Final demand goods: Prices for final demand goods rose 1.7 percent in March, the largest increase since the 

index began in December 2009. Sixty percent of the broad-based advance in March is attributable to prices 

for final demand energy, which jumped 5.9 percent. The indexes for final demand goods less foods and 

energy and for final demand foods moved up 0.9 percent and 0.5 percent, respectively. 

Product detail: Over one-fourth of the March increase in the index for final demand goods can be traced to 

an 8.8-percent jump in gasoline prices. The indexes for diesel fuel, residential electric power, industrial 

chemicals, steel mill products, and processed poultry also moved higher. In contrast, beef and veal prices fell 

4.3 percent. The indexes for fresh and dry vegetables and for surgical and medical instruments also declined. 

(See table 4.) 

Final demand services: The index for final demand services rose 0.7 percent in March, the third consecutive 

advance. Nearly half of the broad-based increase in March is attributable to margins for final demand trade 

services, which moved up 1.0 percent. (Trade indexes measure changes in margins received by wholesalers 

and retailers.) Prices for final demand services less trade, transportation, and warehousing and for final 

demand transportation and warehousing services advanced 0.4 percent and 1.5 percent, respectively. 

Product detail: Over 40 percent of the March increase in prices for final demand services can be traced to 

margins for machinery and vehicle wholesaling, which jumped 6.7 percent. The indexes for apparel, jewelry, 

footwear, and accessories retailing; transportation of freight and mail; portfolio management; loan services 

(partial); and food retailing also moved higher. Conversely, margins for health, beauty, and optical goods 

retailing decreased 4.2 percent. The indexes for automobiles and automobile parts retailing and for traveler 

accommodation services also declined. 
3

Intermediate Demand by Commodity Type 

Within intermediate demand in March, prices for processed goods increased 4.0 percent, the index for 

unprocessed goods rose 9.3 percent, and prices for services moved up 0.4 percent. (See tables B and C.) 

Processed goods for intermediate demand: The index for processed goods for intermediate demand moved 

up 4.0 percent in March, the largest increase since a 4.5-percent jump in August 1974. Nearly 60 percent of 

the broad-based rise in March can be traced to a 3.2-percent advance in prices for processed materials less 

foods and energy. The indexes for processed energy goods and for processed foods and feeds moved up 8.8 

percent and 0.9 percent, respectively. For the 12 months ended in March, prices for processed goods for 

intermediate demand rose 12.5 percent, the largest increase since jumping 15.3 percent for the 12 months 

ended September 2008. 

Product Detail: Nearly one-fifth of the March increase in the index for processed goods for intermediate 

demand is attributable to a 13.5-percent jump in prices for iron and steel. The indexes for diesel fuel, 

industrial chemicals, industrial electric power, plastic resins and materials, and commercial electric power 

also moved higher. In contrast, prices for beef and veal dropped 4.3 percent. The indexes for secondary 

precious metals and for liquefied petroleum gas also declined. (See table 5.) 

Unprocessed goods for intermediate demand: Prices for unprocessed goods for intermediate demand 

moved up 9.3 percent in March, the largest rise since a 12.3-percent increase in November 2006. Over 80 

percent of the broad-based March advance can be traced to a 22.3-percent jump in the index for unprocessed 

energy materials. Prices for unprocessed nonfood materials less energy and for unprocessed foodstuffs and 

feedstuffs rose 3.2 percent and 1.4 percent, respectively. For the 12 months ended in March, the index for 

unprocessed goods for intermediate demand advanced 41.6 percent, the largest increase since jumping 49.0 

percent for the 12 months ended July 2008. 

Product Detail: Over four-fifths of the March increase in the index for unprocessed goods for intermediate 

demand can be traced to a 46.6-percent rise in prices for natural gas. The indexes for crude petroleum; 

slaughter hogs; carbon steel scrap; ungraded chicken eggs; and hay, hayseeds, and oilseeds also advanced. 

Conversely, prices for slaughter cows and bulls decreased 9.0 percent. The indexes for strawberries and for 

raw cotton also fell. 
4

Services for intermediate demand: The index for services for intermediate demand moved up 0.4 percent 

in March, the fourth consecutive increase. Over half of the broad-based March rise can be traced to a 0.3-

percent advance in prices for services less trade, transportation, and warehousing for intermediate demand. 

The indexes for transportation and warehousing services for intermediate demand and for trade services for 

intermediate demand increased 0.9 percent and 0.4 percent, respectively. For the 12 months ended in March, 

prices for services for intermediate demand climbed 4.0 percent, the largest advance since 12-month data 

were first calculated in November 2010. 

Product Detail: Over one-third of the March increase in the index for services for intermediate demand can 

be traced to a 4.2-percent rise in prices for loan services (partial). The indexes for transportation of freight 

and mail; paper and plastics products wholesaling; investment banking; portfolio management; and building 

materials, paint, and hardware wholesaling also advanced. In contrast, margins for machinery and equipment 

parts and supplies wholesaling decreased 1.3 percent. Prices for temporary help services and for broadcast 

and network television advertising time sales also fell. 

Intermediate Demand by Production Flow 

Stage 4 intermediate demand: The index for stage 4 intermediate demand rose 1.2 percent in March, the 

eleventh consecutive increase. In March, prices for total goods inputs to stage 4 intermediate demand 

advanced 2.0 percent, and the index for total services inputs moved up 0.4 percent. (See table D.) Increases 

in prices for iron and steel, industrial electric power, fabricated structural metal products, industrial 

chemicals, diesel fuel, and portfolio management outweighed declines in the indexes for machinery and 

equipment parts and supplies wholesaling, strawberries, and temporary help services. (See table 6.) For the 

12 months ended in March, prices for stage 4 intermediate demand climbed 6.6 percent, the largest increase 

since 12-month data were first calculated in November 2010. 
5

Stage 3 intermediate demand: Prices for stage 3 intermediate demand advanced 2.8 percent in March, the 

largest increase since the index began in December 2009. In March, prices for total goods inputs to stage 3 

intermediate demand rose 5.2 percent, and the index for total services inputs moved up 0.6 percent. 

Advances in prices for iron and steel, diesel fuel, plastic resins and materials, industrial chemicals, slaughter 

hogs, and transportation of freight and mail outweighed decreases in the indexes for slaughter cows and 

bulls, raw milk, and temporary help services. For the 12 months ended in March, prices for stage 3 

intermediate demand jumped 9.4 percent, the largest rise since 12-month data were first calculated in 

November 2010. 

Stage 2 intermediate demand: Prices for stage 2 intermediate demand rose 4.5 percent in March, the largest 

increase since the index began in December 2009. In March, prices for total goods inputs to stage 2 

intermediate demand jumped 10.0 percent, and the index for total services inputs moved up 0.2 percent. 

Advances in the indexes for natural gas, crude petroleum, industrial chemicals, iron and steel, loan services 

(partial), and transportation of freight and mail outweighed declines in prices for temporary help services, 

broadcast and network television advertising time sales, and secondary precious metals. For the 12 months 

ended in March, the index for stage 2 intermediate demand jumped 16.7 percent, the largest increase since 

12-month data were first calculated in November 2010. 

Stage 1 intermediate demand: Prices for stage 1 intermediate demand climbed 2.5 percent in March, the 

largest increase since the index began in December 2009. In March, the index for total goods inputs to stage 

1 intermediate demand rose 4.5 percent, and prices for total services inputs moved up 0.5 percent. Advances 

in the indexes for diesel fuel, steel mill products, industrial chemicals, industrial electric power, carbon steel 

scrap, and investment banking outweighed decreases in the indexes for machinery and equipment parts and 

supplies wholesaling, internet advertising (sold by non-print publishers), and corn. For the 12 months ended 

in March, prices for stage 1 intermediate demand increased 11.2 percent, the largest 12-month advance since 

an 11.2-percent rise in August 2011.

Technical Note 

Brief Explanation of Producer Price Indexes 

The Producer Price Index (PPI) of the Bureau of Labor 

Statistics (BLS) is a family of indexes that measures the 

average change over time in prices received (price changes) by 

producers for domestically produced goods, services, and 

construction. PPIs measure price change from the perspective 

of the seller. This contrasts with other measures, such as the 

Consumer Price Index (CPI). CPIs measure price change 

from the purchaser’s perspective. 

 More than 10,000 PPIs for individual products and groups 

of products are released each month. PPIs are available for the 

products of virtually every industry in the mining and 

manufacturing sectors. Over time, new PPIs have been 

introduced for products of industries in the services and 

construction sectors of the U.S. economy. As of January 2018, 

the PPI covered 71 percent of services as measured by 2012 

Census revenue, and 31 percent of construction. 

More than 100,000 price quotations per month are 

organized into three sets of PPIs: (1) Final demandIntermediate demand (FD-ID) indexes, (2) commodity 

indexes, and (3) indexes for the net output of industries and 

their products. The FD-ID structure organizes products by 

class of buyer and degree of fabrication as well as by stage of 

production. The commodity structure organizes products by 

similarity of end use or product type. The entire output of 

various industries is sampled to derive price indexes for the 

net output of industries and their products. 

Final Demand–Intermediate Demand 

Indexes 

 The PPI FD-ID structure measures price change for 

goods, services, and construction sold to final demand and to 

intermediate demand. The FD-ID system replaced the PPI 

stage-of-processing (SOP) system as PPI’s primary 

aggregation model with the release of data for January 2014. 

The FD-ID model expands coverage beyond that of the SOP 

system through the addition of services, construction, exports, 

and government purchases. 

 Compared with finished goods under the SOP system, the 

PPI for final demand goods includes nearly a 50 percent 

expansion of coverage. This increase can be traced to the 

addition of government purchases and exports. For overall 

final demand, expansion to include final demand services 

represents an even larger increase in coverage. In December 

2017, final demand goods were about 33 percent of overall 

final demand, final demand services were roughly 65.5 

percent, and final demand construction was about 1.5 percent 

of final demand. Within intermediate demand, coverage of 

services for intermediate demand resulted in about a 45 

percent increase in coverage of the intermediate demand 

portion of the economy. 

FD-ID indexes are constructed from commodity-based 

producer output price indexes. Commodities are allocated to 

aggregate indexes primarily based on the type of buyer. The 

main source of data used to determine the type of buyer is the 

“Use of commodities by industries, before redefinition,” table 

from the Benchmark Input-Output Accounts of the U.S. In 

many cases, the same commodity is purchased by different 

types of buyers. As a result, commodities are often included 

in several FD-ID indexes. For example, regular gasoline is 

purchased for personal consumption, export, government use, 

and business use. The PPI program publishes only one 

commodity index for regular gasoline (wpu057104), reflecting 

sales to all types of buyers, and this index is used in all 

aggregations regardless of whether the gasoline is sold for 

personal consumption, as an export, to government, or to 

businesses. Proportions based on BEA “Use of Commodities” 

data are used to allocate the correct portion of the total weight 

of gasoline to each use category. In cases when buyer type is 

an important price determining characteristic, indexes are 

created based on specific buyer type. For example, within the 

PPI category for loan services, separate indexes for consumer 

loans and business loans were constructed. For more 

information relating to the FD-ID structure, see “A new, 

experimental system of indexes from the PPI program” in the 

February 2011 Monthly Labor Review. 

Final Demand: The final demand portion of the FD-ID 

structure measures price change for commodities sold for 

personal consumption, capital investment, government, and 

export. The system is composed of six main price indexes: 

final demand goods; final demand trade services; final demand 

transportation and warehousing services; final demand 

services less trade, transportation, and warehousing; final 

demand construction; and overall final demand. 

 The final demand goods index measures price change for 

both unprocessed and processed goods sold to final demand. 

Fresh fruits sold to consumers and computers sold for capital 

investment are examples of transactions included in the final 

demand goods price index. The final demand trade services 

index measures price change for the retailing and wholesaling 

of merchandise sold to final demand, generally without 

transformation. (Trade indexes measure changes in margins 

received by wholesalers and retailers.) The final demand 

transportation and warehousing services index tracks price 

change for transportation of passengers, as well as, 

transportation of cargo sold to final demand, and also includes 

prices for warehousing and storage of goods sold to final 

demand. The final demand services less trade, transportation, 

and warehousing index measures price change for all services 

other than trade and transportation sold to final demand. 

Publishing, banking, lodging, and health care are examples of 

these services. The final demand construction index tracks 

price change for new construction, as well as maintenance and 

repair construction sold to final demand. Construction of 

office buildings is an example of a commodity that would be 

included in the final demand construction index. Lastly, the 

overall final demand index tracks price change for all types of 

commodities sold to final demand by combining the five final 

demand component indexes described above. 

Intermediate Demand: The intermediate demand portion of 

the FD-ID system tracks price change for goods, services, and 

construction products sold to businesses as inputs to 
7 

production, excluding capital investment. The system includes 

two parallel treatments of intermediate demand. The first 

treatment organizes intermediate demand commodities by 

type. The second organizes intermediate demand commodities 

into production stages, with the explicit goal of developing a 

forward-flow model of production and price change. 

 The intermediate demand by commodity type portion of 

the system organizes commodities by similarity of product. 

The system is composed of six main price indexes: 

unprocessed goods for intermediate demand; processed goods 

for intermediate demand; intermediate demand trade services; 

intermediate demand transportation and warehousing services; 

intermediate demand services less trade, transportation, and 

warehousing; and intermediate demand construction. 

 The unprocessed goods for intermediate demand price 

index measures price change for goods sold to businesses as 

inputs to production that have undergone no fabrication. Crude 

petroleum sold to refineries is an example of an unprocessed 

good sold to intermediate demand. The processed goods for 

intermediate demand index tracks price change for fabricated 

goods sold as business inputs. Examples include car parts sold 

to car manufacturers and gasoline sold to trucking companies. 

The index for trade services for intermediate demand 

measures price change for the services of retailing and 

wholesaling goods purchased by businesses as inputs to 

production. The intermediate demand transportation and 

warehousing services index measures price change for 

business travel, as well as, transportation and warehousing of 

cargo sold to intermediate demand. The intermediate demand 

services less trade, transportation, and warehousing index 

measures price change for services other than trade, 

transportation, and warehousing sold as inputs to production. 

Legal and accounting services purchased by businesses are 

examples of intermediate demand services excluding trade, 

transportation, and warehousing. Finally, the construction for 

intermediate demand index measures price change for 

construction purchased by firms as inputs to production. The 

index for construction for intermediate demand tracks price 

change for maintenance and repair construction purchased by 

firms. 

The production flow treatment of intermediate demand is 

a stage-based system of price indexes. These indexes can be 

used to study price transmission across stages of production 

and final demand. This system is constructed in a manner that 

maximizes forward flow of production between stages, while 

minimizing back-flow of production. The production flow 

treatment contains four main indexes: intermediate demand 

stage 1, intermediate demand stage 2, intermediate demand 

stage 3, and intermediate demand stage 4. 

Indexes for the four stages were developed by first 

assigning each industry in the economy to one of four stages 

of production, where industries assigned to the fourth stage 

primarily produce output consumed as final demand, 

industries in the third stage primarily produce output 

consumed by stage 4 industries, industries assigned to the 

second stage primarily produce output consumed by stage 3 

industries, and industries assigned to the first stage produce 

output primarily consumed by stage 2 industries. The four 

indexes then track prices for the net inputs consumed by 

industries in each of the four stages of production. The stage 4 

intermediate demand index, for example, tracks price change 

for inputs consumed, but not produced, by industries included 

in the fourth stage of production. Hence, the index tracks 

price change in inputs to industries that primarily produce 

final demand commodities (stage 4 producers primarily 

produce commodities sold to final demand). 

 Examples of heavily weighted goods-producing industries 

in stage 4 include the manufacture of light trucks and utility 

vehicles, automobiles, and pharmaceuticals. Retail trade, food 

service and drinking places, and hospitals are examples of 

heavily weighted service industries included in stage 4. Stage 

4 also includes all new construction industries. Examples of 

goods consumed by stage 4 industries include motor vehicle 

parts, commercial electric power, plastic construction 

products, biological products, and beef and veal. Engineering 

services, machinery and equipment wholesaling, long distance 

motor carrying, and legal services constitute examples of 

services consumed by stage 4 industries.

 Examples of highly weighted goods-producing industries 

included in stage 3 are motor vehicle parts manufacturing, 

animal (except poultry) slaughtering and processing, and 

semiconductor manufacturing. Services industries classified 

in stage 3 include wholesale trade; insurance carriers; 

architecture, engineering, and related services; and hotels and 

motels. Examples of goods consumed by stage 3 industries 

include slaughter steers and heifers, industrial electric power, 

and hot rolled steel bars, plates, and structural shapes. 

Services commonly consumed by stage 3 industries include 

commissions from sales of property and casualty insurance, 

business loans, temporary help services, and administrative 

and general management consulting services. 

 Petroleum refineries; electricity generation, transmission, 

and distribution; natural gas distribution; cattle ranching and 

farming; and plastic materials and resin manufacturing are 

among the goods-based industries assigned to stage 2. 

Services industries that are heavily weighted in stage 2 include 

management of companies and enterprises; non-depository 

credit intermediation; insurance agencies and brokerages; and 

services to buildings and dwellings. Goods commonly 

purchased by stage 2 industries include crude oil, natural gas, 

formula feeds, and primary basic organic chemicals. Services 

that are heavily weighted in the intermediate demand stage 2 

index are legal services, business loans, and cellular phone and 

other wireless telecommunication. 

 Goods producing industries in stage 1 include oil and gas 

extraction, paper mills, and grain farming. Real estate, legal 

services, and advertising services are examples of highly 

weighted services industries included in stage 1. Examples of 

goods consumed by stage 1 industries are commercial and 

industrial electric power and gasoline. Services commonly 

consumed by stage 1 industries include solid waste collection, 

chemicals and allied products wholesaling, and guestroom or 

unit rental. It should be noted that all inputs purchased by 

stage 1 industries are by definition produced either within 

stage 1 or by latter stages of processing, leaving stage 1 less 

useful for price transmission analysis. For additional 

information on industry stage assignments, see 

https://www.bls.gov/ppi/industryflowstage.htm.

Comparing the PPI with CPI 

 Although some data users utilize the PPI as a potential 

indicator of the Consumer Price Index (CPI), there are many 

reasons why the PPI and the CPI may diverge. The scope of 

the personal consumption portion of the PPI includes all 

marketable output sold by domestic producers for households. 

The scope of the CPI includes goods and services provided by 

business or government, where explicit user charges are paid 

by consumers. For example, the most heavily weighted item in 

the CPI, owners’ equivalent rent, is excluded from the PPI. 

The scope of the CPI includes imports. The PPI excludes 

imports. The CPI only includes components of personal 

consumption directly paid for by the consumers, while the PPI 

includes components of personal consumption that may not be 

paid for by consumers. For example, the PPI includes medical 

services paid for by third parties. In contrast to CPI, PPI does 

not completely cover services. PPIs exclude taxes, since they 

do not represent producer revenue. Conversely, sales and other 

taxes paid by consumers are part of household expenditure and 

are included in the CPI. Additional technical differences 

between PPI and CPI also exist. For more information see 

“Comparing new final demand producer price indexes with 

other Government price indexes,” Monthly Labor Review, 

January 2014, at https://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/.

Commodity Indexes 

The commodity classification of the PPI organizes goods, 

services, and construction by similarity of product or end use, 

disregarding industry of origin. With the release of data for 

July 2009, PPI expanded its commodity structure to include 

indexes for services and construction products. Prior to this 

date, the PPI commodity structure only included products 

from goods producing sectors. Table 9 of the PPI Detailed 

Report includes data for commodity indexes, organized in a 

hierarchal structure, including major groupings, subgroups, 

product classes, sub-product classes, and individual items. 

Industry Net-Output Price Indexes 

PPIs for the net output of industries and their products are 

grouped according to the North American Industry 

Classification System (NAICS). Prior to the release of 

January 2004, industry-based PPIs were published according 

to the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system. 

Industry price indexes are compatible with other economic 

time series organized by industry, such as data on 

employment, wages, and productivity. Table 11 of the PPI 

Detailed Report includes data for NAICS industries and 

industry groups (3-, 4-, 5-, and 6-digit codes), Census product 

classes (7- and 8-digit codes), products (9-digit codes), more 

detailed sub-products (11-digit codes), and, for some 

industries, indexes for other sources of revenue. 

 Indexes may represent one of three kinds of product 

categories. Every industry has primary product indexes that 

show changes in prices received by establishments classified 

in the industry for products made primarily, but not 

necessarily exclusively, by that industry. The industry 

classification of an establishment is determined by which 

products make up a plurality of its total shipment value. In 

addition, most industries have secondary product indexes that 

show changes in prices received by establishments for 

products chiefly made in some other industry. Some industries 

have miscellaneous receipts indexes that track price changes 

for other sources of revenue received by establishments within 

the industry that are not derived from sales of their products; 

for example, resales of purchased materials, or revenues from 

parking lots owned by a manufacturing plant. 

Data Collection 

PPIs are constructed using selling prices reported by 

establishments of all sizes, selected by probability sampling, 

with the probability of selection proportionate to size. 

Individual items and transaction terms also are chosen by 

probability proportionate to size. BLS strongly encourages 

cooperating companies to supply actual transaction prices at 

the time of shipment to minimize the use of list prices. Prices 

submitted by survey respondents are effective on the Tuesday 

of the week containing the 13th day of the month. The survey 

is conducted online via the BLS Internet Data Collection 

Facility (IDCF). 

 Price data are provided on a voluntary and confidential 

basis; only sworn BLS employees are allowed access to 

individual company price reports. BLS publishes price 

indexes instead of actual prices. All PPIs are subject to 

revision 4 months after original publication to reflect the 

availability of late reports and corrections by respondents. 

 BLS periodically updates the PPI sample of survey 

respondents to better reflect current conditions when the 

structure, membership, technology, or product mix of an 

industry shifts significantly and to spread reporting burden 

among smaller firms. Information on these resampling efforts 

are noted in the PPI News Release and PPI Detailed Report in 

the months they occur. 

 As part of an ongoing effort to expand coverage to sectors 

of the economy other than mining and manufacturing, an 

increasing number of service and construction sector 

industries have been introduced into the PPI. The following 

list of industries introduced since the mid-1990s includes the 

month and year in which an article describing the industry’s 

content appeared in the PPI Detailed Report.

Weights

Weights for most commodity groupings of the PPI, as 

well as, weights for commodity-based aggregate indexes 

calculated from commodity groupings, such as FD-ID indexes, 

currently reflect 2012 values of shipments as reported in the 

Census of Manufactures and other sources. From January 

2012 to December 2017, PPI weights were derived from 2007 

shipment values. Industry indexes now are calculated under 

the 2017 NAICS structure utilizing 2012 value of shipment 

weights and 2007 net output ratios. The periodic update of the 

value weights used to calculate the PPI is done to more 

accurately reflect changes in production and marketing 

patterns in the economy. 

Net output values of shipments are used as weights for 

industry indexes. Net output values refer to the value of 

shipments from establishments within the industry to buyers 

outside the industry. However, weights for commodity indexes 

are based on gross shipment values, including values of 

shipments between establishments within the same industry. 

As a result, broad commodity grouping indexes, such as the 

PPI for All Commodities (which is composed of major 

commodity groupings 01 through 15), are affected by the 

multiple counting of price change at successive stages of 

processing, which can lead to exaggerated or misleading 

signals about inflation. The intermediate demand by 

commodity type FD-ID indexes partially correct for this 

defect, but industry indexes, final demand FD-ID indexes, and 

intermediate demand by production flow FD-ID indexes 

consistently correct for this at all levels of aggregation. 

Therefore, industry and FD-ID indexes are more appropriate 

than broad commodity groupings for analysis of general price 

trends. 

Price Index Reference Base 

Effective with publication of January 1988 data, many 

important PPI series (including most commodity groups and 

individual items) were placed on a new reference base, 1982 = 

100. From 1971 through 1987, the standard reference base 

for most PPI series was 1967 = 100. Except for rounding 

differences, the shift to the new reference base did not alter 

any previously published percent changes for affected PPI 

series. (See “Calculating Index Changes,” below.) The 1982 

reference base is not used for commodity indexes with a base 

later than December 1981 or for industry net output indexes 
10 

and their products. The FD-ID indexes typically have a 

reference base of November 2009 = 100. 

 For further information on the underlying concepts and 

methodology of the Producer Price Index, see chapter 14, 

“Producer Prices,” in the BLS Handbook of Methods. This 

chapter can be downloaded from the BLS Web site at 

https://www.bls.gov/opub/hom/homch14.htm. 

Calculating Index Changes 

Each PPI measures price changes from a reference period 

that equals 100.0. An increase of 5.5 percent from the 

reference period in the Final Demand Goods Price Index, for 

example, is shown as 105.5. This change also can be 

expressed in dollars, as follows: prices received by domestic 

producers of a sample of final demand goods have risen from 

$100 in November 2009 to $105.50. Likewise, a current index 

of 90.0 would indicate that prices received by producers of 

final demand goods are 10 percent lower than they were in 

November 2009. 

 Movements of price indexes from one month to another 

are usually expressed as percent changes, rather than as 

changes in index points. Index point changes are affected by 

the level of the index in relation to its base period, whereas 

percent changes are not. The following example shows the 

computation of index point and percent changes. 

Index point change

 Final Demand Goods Price Index 107.5 

 Less previous index 104.0 

 Equals index point change 3.5 

Index percent change

 Index point change 3.5 

 Divided by the previous index 104.0 

 Equals 0.034 

 Result multiplied by 100 0.034 x 100 

 Equals percent change 3.4 

Seasonally Adjusted and Unadjusted Data 

Because price data are used for different purposes by 

different groups, BLS publishes seasonally adjusted and 

unadjusted changes each month. Seasonally adjusted data are 

preferred for analyzing general price trends in the 

economy because these data 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 these reasons, seasonally adjusted data 

more clearly reveal underlying trends. Unadjusted data are of 

primary interest to users who need information that can be 

related to actual dollar values of transactions. Individuals 

requiring this information include marketing specialists, 

purchasing agents, budget and cost analysts, contract 

specialists, and commodity traders. It is the unadjusted data 

that are generally cited when escalating long-term contracts 

such as purchasing agreements or real estate leases. For more 

information, see Price Adjustment Guide for Contracting 

Parties, on the Web at 

https://www.bls.gov/ppi/ppiescalation.htm. 

Seasonal adjustment is accomplished using X-13 

ARIMA, a software package published by the U.S. Census 

Bureau. Each year, the seasonal status of most commodity 

indexes is reevaluated to reflect more recent price behavior. 

Industry net output indexes are not seasonally adjusted. For 

time series that exhibit seasonal pricing patterns, new seasonal 

factors are estimated and applied to the unadjusted data from 

the prior 5 years. Updated seasonally adjusted indexes replace 

the most recent 5 years of seasonal data. 

 Seasonal factors may be applied to series using either a 

direct or an aggregative method. Generally, commodity 

indexes are seasonally adjusted using direct seasonal 

adjustment, which produces a more complete elimination of 

seasonal movements than does the aggregative method. 

However, the direct seasonal adjustment process may not yield 

figures that possess additive consistency. Thus, a seasonally 

adjusted index for a broad category that is directly adjusted 

may not be logically consistent with all seasonally adjusted 

indexes for its components. Seasonal movements for FD-ID 

indexes are derived indirectly through an aggregative method 

that combines movements of a wide variety of subproduct 

class (six-digit) series. 

Seasonally adjusted indexes can become problematic 

when previously stable and predictable price patterns abruptly 

change. If the new pattern persists, the seasonal adjustment 

method will eventually reflect it; if the pattern keeps shifting, 

however, seasonally adjusted data will become chronically 

troublesome. This problem occurs relatively infrequently for 

farm and food-related products, but has more often affected 

manufactured products such as automobiles and steel. 

Since January 1988, the PPI has used Intervention 

Analysis Seasonal Adjustment methods to enhance the 

calculation of seasonal factors. With this technique, outlier 

values that may distort the seasonal pattern are removed from 

the data prior to applying the standard seasonal factor 

estimation procedure. For example, a possible economic 

cause for large price movements for petroleum-based products 

might have been the Persian Gulf War. In this case, 

intervention techniques allowed for better estimates of 

seasonally adjusted data. On the whole, very few series have 

required intervention. Out of almost 400 seasonally adjusted 

series, only 42 were subject to intervention in 2018. 

For more information relating to seasonal adjustment 

methods, see “Summary of Changes to the PPI’s Seasonal 

Adjustment Methodology” in the January 1995 issue of 

Producer Price Indexes, and “PPI and CPI Seasonal 

Adjustment: an Update” in the July 2010 Monthly Labor 

Review. 

Producer Price Index Data on the Internet 

In 1995, the BLS began posting PPI series, news releases, 

and technical information to both a World Wide Web (WWW) 

site and a file transfer protocol (FTP) site. During the years 

following the introduction of PPI Internet services, use of 

these sites eclipsed more traditional methods of data 

dissemination, such as subscriptions to the PPI Detailed 

Report. There were more than 4 million instances of PPI data 
11 

and tables being downloaded from the BLS website during the 

12 months ended December 31, 2017. 

Retrieving PPI data from the PPI Web site 

PPI data can be obtained from the WWW address 

(https://www.bls.gov/ppi). On this page, under the tab labeled 

“Featured PPI databases” links provide the following methods 

of data retrieval: 

• Top Picks is a form-based application for both Industry 

Data and Commodity Data that allows the user to quickly 

obtain PPI time series data by selecting the high-level 

aggregate and other commonly requested time series, 

including the All Commodities Index and the FD-ID 

indexes (for example, Final Demand). Within each list, 

any one—or all—of the time series shown can be 

selected. A user can modify the date range and output 

options after executing the query, using the reformat 

button above the data output table. 

• One-Screen Data Search and Multi-Screen Data Search 

are form-based query applications for both Industry Data 

and Commodity Data designed for users unfamiliar with 

the PPI coding structure. These applications guide a user 

through the PPI classification by listing index titles and 

do not require knowledge of commodity or industry 

codes. Data retrieved are based on a query formulated by 

selecting data characteristics from lists provided. Two 

options are available to create customized tables, 

depending on a user’s browser capability. The one-screen 

option is a JavaScript application that uses a single screen 

to guide a user through the available time series data. The 

second option is a multiple-screen, non-Java-based 

application. Both methods allow a user to browse the PPI 

coding structure and select multiple series. Users can 

modify the date range and output options after executing 

the query using the reformat button above the data output 

table. 

• Series Report is a form-based application that allows 

users to input multiple, formatted PPI time series 

identifiers (commodity or industry codes) as inputs in 

extracting data according to a specified set of date ranges 

and output options. This application provides the most 

efficient path for users who are familiar with the format of 

PPI time series identifiers. There are five alphabetic 

prefixes used to create unique PPI time series identifiers: 

WP, WD, PC, PD, and ND. Each provides the user 

access to a different PPI database. Adding either a “u” 

(not seasonally adjusted) or an “s” (seasonally adjusted) 

to the end of these prefixes further specifies the type of 

data needed. 

EXAMPLES 

For commodity and FD-ID indexes, series identifiers 

combine a “wpu” prefix (not seasonally adjusted) or a 

“wps” prefix (seasonally adjusted) with a commodity 

code. 

Commodity code Provides data for:

wps141101 Passenger cars, seasonally adjusted 

wpu141101 Passenger cars, not seasonally 

adjusted 

wpufd4 Final demand, not seasonally 

adjusted

wpsid63 Services for intermediate demand, 

seasonally adjusted

For discontinued commodity indexes, series identifiers 

combine a “wdu” prefix (not seasonally adjusted) or a 

“wds” prefix (seasonally adjusted) with a commodity 

code. 

Commodity code Provides data for:

wds019 Other farm products, seasonally 

adjusted 

wdu0635 Preparations, ethical (prescription), 

not seasonally adjusted 

wdusi138011 Stainless steel mill products, not 

seasonally adjusted 

 Current price indexes grouped by industry according 

to NAICS have series identifiers that begin with the 

prefix “pcu.” After the prefix, there are 12 digits (the 6-

digit industry code is listed twice) followed by up to 7 

alphanumeric characters identifying product detail. 

Dashes are used as placeholders for higher-level industry 

group codes. 

Industry-product code, 

current NAICS series Provides data for:

pcu325---325--- Chemical manufacturing 

pcu336110336110 Automobile and light duty 

motor vehicle manufacturing 

pcu621111621111411 Offices of physicians, one- and 

two-physician practices and 

single-specialty group 

practices, general/family 

practice 

Discontinued industry-product codes based on SIC

combine a “pdu” prefix and “#” between the fourth and 

fifth characters of the product code. Series identifiers for 

the discontinued dataset use underscores as placeholders 

to complete a reference to an SIC industry group code of 

fewer than four digits. (All PPI industry-based indexes 

organized by SIC were discontinued with the introduction 

of NAICS in 2004.) 

Industry-product code,

discontinued SIC series Provides data for:

pdu28_ _# Chemicals and allied products 

pdu331_# Blast furnaces, steel works, 

and rolling and finishing mills 

pdu3711#111 Passenger cars 

Price indexes for discontinued series grouped by 

industry according to NAICS have identifiers that begin 

with the prefix “ndu”. After the prefix, there are 12 
12 

numeric digits (the 6-digit industry code is listed twice), 

and up to 7 additional alphanumeric characters that 

identify product detail. Dashes are used as placeholders 

for higher-level group codes. 

Industry-product code, 

discontinued NAICS series Provides data for

ndu212231212231 Lead and zinc ore mining

1 Further information about the Final Demand-Intermediate Demand Aggregation system is available online at https://www.bls.gov/ppi/fdidaggregation.htm.

2 Comprehensive relative importance figures are initially computed after the publication of December indexes and are recalculated after final December indexes are available. Individual

items and subtotals may not add exactly to totals because of rounding differences.

3 The indexes for November 2020 have been recalculated to incorporate late reports and corrections by respondents. All indexes are subject to revision 4 months after original

publication.

4 PPI defines Total finished as including only the personal consumption and private capital investment portions of final demand.

5 Trade indexes measure changes in margins received by wholesalers and retailers.

6 The PPI definition of foods does not include food and beverages for immediate consumption. PPI defines food and beverages for immediate consumption as the service of preparing

meals, snacks, and beverages to customer order for immediate on-premises and off-premises consumption.

7 Distributive services include transportation, warehousing, and trade of goods.

1 Further information about the Final Demand-Intermediate Demand Aggregation system is available online at https://www.bls.gov/ppi/fdidaggregation.htm

2 Comprehensive relative importance figures are initially computed after the publication of December indexes and are recalculated after final December indexes are available. Individual

items and subtotals may not add exactly to totals because of rounding differences.

3 The indexes for November 2020 have been recalculated to incorporate late reports and corrections by respondents. All indexes are subject to revision 4 months after original

publication.
