CONSUMER PRICE INDEX JUNE 2016

The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 0.2 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 rose 1.0 percent before seasonal adjustment.
For the second consecutive month, increases in the indexes for energy and all items less food and energy
more than offset a decline in the food index to result in the seasonally adjusted all items increase. The
food index fell 0.1 percent, with the food at home index declining 0.3 percent. The energy index rose 1.3
percent, due mainly to a 3.3-percent increase in the gasoline index; the indexes for natural gas and
electricity declined.
The index for all items less food and energy increased 0.2 percent in June. The shelter index rose 0.3
percent, and a broad array of indexes also increased, including medical care, education, airline fares,
motor vehicle insurance, and recreation. In contrast, the indexes for used cars and trucks, apparel,
communication, and household furnishings and operations all declined in June.
The all items index rose 1.0 percent for the 12 months ending June. This is the same increase as for the
12 months ending May, but smaller than the 1.7 percent average annual increase over the past 10 years.
The index for all items less food and energy rose 2.3 percent for the 12 months ending June, a larger
increase than the 2.2 percent rise for the 12 months ending May, and above the average annual rate of
1.9 percent over the past 10 years.

Consumer Price Index Data for June 2016

Food
The food index declined 0.1 percent in June after a 0.2-percent decrease in May. The index for food at
home fell 0.3 percent in June following a 0.5-percent decline in May. Four of the six major grocery store
food group indexes declined. The index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs fell 0.7 percent, its tenth
consecutive decline, as the index for eggs fell 5.7 percent. The index for nonalcoholic beverages also fell
0.7 percent in June, its largest decline since May 2013. The index for dairy and related products fell 0.3
percent, and the fruits and vegetables index declined 0.1 percent. The index for other food at home was
unchanged in June after declining in May. The only major grocery store food group index to rise in June
was cereals and bakery products, which increased 0.1 percent.
The food at home index has declined 1.3 percent over the past year, its largest 12-month decline since
February 2010. Four of the six major grocery store food group indexes have decreased over the period.
The index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs has declined 5.0 percent over the last 12 months, and the
dairy and related products index has declined 2.2 percent. The indexes for cereals and bakery products
and nonalcoholic beverages posted smaller declines, and the indexes for fruits and vegetables and other
food at home rose. The food away from home index has risen 2.6 percent over the past 12 months, and
increased 0.2 percent in June.
Energy
The energy index rose 1.3 percent in June, its fourth increase in a row, although major energy
component indexes were mixed. The gasoline index continued to rise, increasing 3.3 percent in June
after a 2.3-percent advance in May. (Before seasonal adjustment, gasoline prices increased 4.4 percent in
June.) The fuel oil index also rose 3.3 percent in June, and both the gasoline and fuel oil indexes have
increased 4 months in a row. However, the electricity index fell in June, declining 0.5 percent, and the
index for natural gas declined 0.4 percent after rising in April and May.
The energy index has declined 9.4 percent over the past year, with all of its major components falling
over the period. The fuel oil index has declined 19.6 percent, and the index for gasoline has decreased
15.4 percent. The indexes for natural gas and electricity have posted smaller declines, falling 5.0 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 same increase as in May.
The shelter index rose 0.3 percent in June after a 0.4-percent increase in May, with the rent index
advancing 0.4 percent, and the index for owners' equivalent rent increasing 0.3 percent. The index for
lodging away from home rose 0.6 percent. The medical care index increased 0.4 percent in June. The
index for prescription drugs rose 1.3 percent, and the medical care services index increased 0.2 percent.
The education index increased 0.5 percent in June, and the index for airline fares rose 1.6 percent after
declining in May. The index for motor vehicle insurance continued to rise, advancing 0.2 percent, and
the tobacco index rose 0.6 percent. The indexes for alcoholic beverages and for recreation both rose
slightly in June, increasing 0.1 percent.
-3-
In contrast to these increases, the index for used cars and trucks continued to decline, falling 1.1 percent
after a 1.3-percent decline in May. The apparel index fell 0.4 percent after rising in May, and the index
for communication declined 0.2 percent, its fifth consecutive decline. The index for new vehicles fell 0.2
percent, its third decline in a row, and the index for household furnishings and operations declined 0.1
percent.
The index for all items less food and energy increased 2.3 percent over the past 12 months. Much of this
increase is accounted for by the indexes for shelter (up 3.5 percent) and medical care (up 3.6 percent).
Indexes that have declined over the past year include airline fares, used cars and trucks, new vehicles,
communication, and household furnishings and operations.
Not seasonally adjusted CPI measures
The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 1.0 percent over the last 12

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 28 percent of the total population and (2)
the CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) and the Chained CPI for All Urban Consumers (C-CPI-U),
which covers approximately 89 percent of the total population and includes, in addition to wage earners
and clerical worker households, groups such as professional, managerial, and technical workers, the selfemployed, short-term workers, the unemployed, and retirees and others not in the labor force.
The CPIs are based on prices of food, clothing, shelter, 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 6,000 housing units and
approximately 24,000 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 Bureaus trained representatives.
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.

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 1month, 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 2014." These data are available on the CPI home page (www.bls.gov/cpi), or by using the
following link: www.bls.gov/cpi/cpivar2014.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.
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 the Use of Seasonally Adjusted and Unadjusted Data

Introduction
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) produces both unadjusted and seasonally adjusted data. Seasonally
adjusted data are computed using seasonal factors derived by the X-13ARIMA-SEATS Seasonal
Adjustment Method. These factors are updated each February, and the new factors are used to revise the
previous five years of seasonally adjusted data. For more information on data revisions and exceptions
to the usual revision schedule, please see the Fact Sheet on Seasonal Adjustment
(http://www.bls.gov/cpi/cpisaqanda.htm) and the Timeline of Seasonal Adjustment Methodological
Changes (http://www.bls.gov/cpi/cpiseastimeline.htm).
How to Use Seasonally Adjusted and Unadjusted Data
For analyzing short-term 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 yearsuch as price movements resulting from changing climatic conditions,
production cycles, model changeovers, holidays, and sales. This allows data users to focus on changes
that are not typical for the time of year.
The unadjusted data are of primary interest to consumers concerned about the prices they actually pay.
Unadjusted data are also 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. BLS advises against the use of seasonally adjusted data in
escalation agreements because seasonally adjusted series are revised annually.
Intervention Analysis
The Bureau of Labor Statistics uses Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment for some CPI series.
Sometimes extreme values or sharp movements can distort the underlying seasonal pattern of price
change. Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment is a process by which the distortions caused by such
unusual events are estimated and removed from the data prior to calculation of seasonal factors. The
resulting seasonal factors, which more accurately represent the seasonal pattern, are then applied to the
unadjusted data.
2016 Series Adjusted Using Intervention Analysis Seasonal Adjustment
For the seasonal factors introduced in January 2016, BLS adjusted 37 series using Intervention Analysis
Seasonal Adjustment, including selected food and beverage items, motor fuels and natural gas. For
example, this procedure was used for the Motor fuel series to offset the effects of events such as the
response in crude oil markets to the worldwide economic downturn in 2008.
Revision of Seasonally Adjusted Indexes
Seasonally adjusted data, including the U.S. city average All items index levels, are subject to revision
for up to five years after their original release. Every year, economists in the CPI calculate new seasonal
factors for seasonally adjusted series and apply them to the last five years of data. Seasonally adjusted
indexes beyond the last five years of data are considered to be final and not subject to revision. In
-7-
January 2016, revised seasonal factors and seasonally adjusted indexes for 2011-2015 were calculated
and published. For directly adjusted series, the seasonal factors for 2015 will be applied to data in 2016
to produce the seasonally adjusted 2016 indexes.
Determining Seasonal Status
Each year the seasonal status of every series is reevaluated based upon certain statistical criteria. Using
these criteria, BLS economists determine whether a series should change its status: from "not seasonally
adjusted" to "seasonally adjusted", or vice versa. If any of the 81 components of the U.S. city average all
items index 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 five
years, but the seasonally adjusted indexes before that period will not be changed. 28 of the 81
components of the U.S. city average all items index are not seasonally adjusted for 2016.

Statistics, Division of Consumer Prices and Price Indexes, Washington, DC 20212 or contact Justin

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.

The C-CPI-U is designed to be a closer approximation to a cost-of-living index in that it, in its nal 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 rst in preliminary form using the latest available expenditure data at that
time and is subject to two revisions.
Indexes are issued as initial estimates. Indexes are revised each quarter with the publication of January, April, July, and October data as updated
expenditure estimates become available. The C-CPI-U indexes are updated quarterly until they become nal. January-March indexes are nal in
January of the following year; April-June indexes are nal in April of the following year; July-September indexes are nal in July of the following year;
October-December indexes are nal in October of the following year.

The effect of an item category is a measure of that items 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).

A statistics 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 items 1-month percent change would be 0.6 percent, plus or minus 0.3
percent.
If the current seasonally adjusted 1-month percent change is greater than the previous published 1-month percent change, then this column
identies 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 identied. 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.

Special indexes based on a substantially smaller sample. These series do not contribute to the all items index aggregation and therefore do not
have a relative importance or effect.

The effect of an item category is a measure of that items 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 statistics 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 items 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 identies 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 identied. 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.

Special indexes based on a substantially smaller sample. These series do not contribute to the all items index aggregation and therefore do not
have a relative importance or effect.
