CPI Detailed Report-January 2009
CONSUMER PRICE MOVEMENTS
JANUARY 2009
The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 0.4 percent in January, before seasonal adjustment, the
Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. The January level of 211.143 (1982-84=100) was
virtually unchanged from January 2008.
The Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) increased 0.4 percent in January, prior to
seasonal adjustment. The January level of 205.700 (1982-84=100) was 0.5 percent lower than in January 2008.
The Chained Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (C-CPI-U) increased 0.5 percent in January on a not
seasonally adjusted basis. The January level of 121.208 (December 1999=100) was 0.5 percent lower than in January 2008. Please
note that the indexes for the post-2007 period are subject to revision.
CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U)
On a seasonally adjusted basis, the CPI-U increased 0.3 percent in January after declining in each of the three previous months. The
energy index climbed 1.7 percent in January, its first increase in six months, but it was still 31.4 percent below its July 2008 peak
level. Within energy, the gasoline index rose 6.0 percent in January after a 19.3 percent decline in December. However, some
energy components continued to decline; the fuel oil index fell 3.7 percent in January and the index for natural gas declined 3.6
percent. The food index, which rose sharply during the summer and moderated through the fall, increased 0.1 percent in January
after being virtually unchanged in December. The food index has risen 5.3 percent over the past year. The (cont.)

food at home index declined 0.1 percent in January as the fruits and vegetables index continued to fall. The index for all items less
food and energy rose 0.2 percent in January after being virtually unchanged in December. Contributing to the increase were larger
advances in the indexes for rent and owners equivalent rent and upturns in the indexes for new vehicles and apparel.
The food and beverages index increased 0.1 percent in January, the same increase as in December. A 0.3 percent increase in
the index for food away from home and a 0.2 percent rise in the alcoholic beverages index more than offset a 0.1 percent decline in
the food at home index. The food at home index has risen 5.7 percent over the past year. Within food at home, the indexes for four
of the six major grocery store food groups declined in January. The index for fruits and vegetables fell 1.3 percent, its fifth
consecutive monthly decline. The index for fresh fruits fell 2.2 percent and the fresh vegetables index declined 1.6 percent. The
dairy and related products index, down 1.1 percent in December, fell 0.6 percent in January, with the milk index declining 1.4
percent. Also declining in January were the indexes for meats, poultry, fish and eggs and for nonalcoholic beverages, each down
0.1 percent. The index for cereals and bakery products was virtually unchanged in January, but was still up 11.3 percent over the
1
CPI Detailed Report-Janaury 2009
last year. The index for other food at home rose 0.6 percent in January, the only major grocery store food group index to increase
for the month.
The housing index was virtually unchanged in January for the second straight month. However the shelter index, virtually
unchanged in December, rose 0.2 percent in January. Over the last 12 months, the housing index has risen 2.2 percent and the index
for shelter was up 1.8 percent. Within shelter, the indexes for rent and owners’ equivalent rent both rose 0.3 percent in January after
rising 0.2 percent and 0.1 percent, respectively, in December. The index for lodging away from home fell 1.1 percent in January
and has declined 4.7 percent over the past 12 months. The household energy index fell 0.9 percent in January, its sixth consecutive
monthly decline. Within household energy, the electricity index rose 0.2 percent, but the indexes for fuel oil and natural gas both
declined. Despite the recent declines, the household energy index was up 4.9 percent over the past 12 months. The index for
household furnishings and operations turned down in January, declining 0.1 percent after increasing 0.1 percent in December.
The transportation index rose for the first time since July, increasing 1.3 percent in January. The index has declined 12.6
percent over the past 12 months. The index for motor fuel, which had been declining in recent months, rose 5.3 percent in January.
However, the motor fuel index is still 48.1 percent below its peak in July. The index for new and used motor vehicles increased in
January after posting 12 straight declines, rising 0.2 percent. The index for new vehicles rose 0.3 percent in January but has
declined 2.6 percent over the past year. The index for public transportation continued to decline, falling 1.8 percent in January. The
airline fare index fell 2.1 percent in January and was down 0.9 percent compared to a year ago.
After declining 0.6 percent in December, the apparel index turned up in January, rising 0.3 percent. The index for men’s and
boys’ apparel rose 1.6 percent and the index for women’s and girls’ apparel rose 0.2 percent. (On a not seasonally adjusted basis,
the apparel index declined 2.0 percent in January and was down 0.9 percent over the last 12 months.)
The medical care index climbed 0.4 percent in January following a 0.2 percent increase in November and a 0.3 percent
advance in December. The index for medical care commodities rose 0.4 percent, with the prescription drugs index rising 0.5
percent. The medical care services index rose 0.5 percent in January. Within this group, the index for physicians’ services rose 0.2
percent and the hospital and related services index increased 0.8 percent.
The index for recreation, down 0.2 percent in December, was virtually unchanged in January. The indexes for photography,
toys, admissions, and for pets, pet products and services all rose in January. These increases offset declines in the indexes for video
and audio and for sporting goods. The recreation index is up 1.6 percent over the past 12 months.
The education and communication index increased 0.3 percent in January and was up 3.6 percent over the past year. The
education index, which rose 0.5 percent in December, advanced 0.3 percent in January. The index for communication climbed 0.2
percent for the second straight month. Within communication, the telephone services index rose 0.2 percent and the index for
information technology, hardware and services increased 0.1 percent.
After being virtually unchanged in December, the index for other goods and services rose 0.3 percent in January and was up
3.3 percent over the past 12 months. The index for tobacco and smoking products rose 0.8 percent in January, while the personal
care index increased 0.1 percent.

CPI Detailed Report-Janaury 2009
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 2004 through December 2008 were replaced in January 2009.
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.
The seasonal movement of all items and 54 other aggregations is derived by combining the seasonal movement of
73 selected components. Each year the seasonal status of every series is reevaluated based upon certain statistical criteria.
If any of the 73 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 will be used before that period. Note: 47 of the 73 components are seasonally adjusted for 2009.
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 2009, BLS adjusted 29 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 https://www.bls.gov/cpi/cpisapage.htm.
For additional information on seasonal adjustment in the CPI, please write to the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
Division of Consumer Prices and Price Indexes, Washington, DC 20212 or contact Jeff Wilson at (202) 691-6968, or by email at [email protected]. If you have general questions about the CPI, please call our information staff at (202) 6917000.

CPI Detailed Report-Janaury 2009
Intervention Analysis in Seasonal Adjustment
In some Consumer Price Index (CPI) series, a process known as seasonal adjustment is used to identify
and factor out seasonal movements. The resulting seasonally adjusted data reflect an estimate of
nonseasonal price movements. The CPI uses the Bureau of the Census X-12-ARIMA software to calculate
factors for seasonal adjustment of both historical and current series.
Seasonal adjustment for some CPI series use a technique called intervention analysis that is included in
the Census X-12 seasonal adjustment program. Intervention analysis seasonal adjustment allows
economic phenomena that are not seasonal in nature, such as outliers and level shifts, to be factored out of
indexes before calculation of seasonal adjustment factors. (An outlier is an extreme value for a particular
month. A level shift is a change or shift in the price level of a CPI series caused by an event, such as a sales
tax increase or oil embargo, occurring over one or several months.) The result is an adjustment based on a
representation of the series with the seasonal pattern emphasized. Intervention analysis seasonal
adjustment also makes it possible to account for seasonal shifts, resulting in a better seasonal adjustment in
the periods before and after the shift occurred. For those CPI series adjusted using intervention analysis
seasonal adjustment techniques, the resulting seasonal factors more accurately represent the underlying
seasonal pattern. Seasonal factors are applied to the original unadjusted series without intervention. As a
result, level shifts and outliers, removed for the calculation of seasonal factors, are present in the seasonally
adjusted series.
When X-12-ARIMA is used to perform intervention analysis seasonal adjustment, unusual events are
modeled as part of the seasonal adjustment process. X-12-ARIMA’s built-in regression variables are used
for directly estimating the effects of sudden level changes and other disruptions and removing those effects
before calculation of the seasonal factors. For a comprehensive discussion of X-12-ARIMA and
intervention analysis seasonal adjustment, see "Improvements to CPI Procedures for Intervention Analysis
Seasonal Adjustment" in the December 1996 issue of the CPI Detailed Report.
A CPI series may receive intervention analysis seasonal adjustment (IASA) if the series is directly
adjusted and has a relative importance greater than 0.5% to the U.S. city average all items index. If IASA
is used for a component of the seasonally adjusted U.S. city average all items index, series which are
subsets of the component series are also eligible for IASA. In January 2009, BLS adjusted the series listed
below using intervention analysis seasonal adjustment techniques. BLS examined these series using the 8year span from January 2001 through December 2008.

CPI Detailed Report-Janaury 2009
C-CPI-U Index Revisions
In accordance with the previously-announced schedule, the Bureau of Labor Statistics is revising the 2007 and 2008 values of the
Chained Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (C-CPI-U), effective with the release of January 2009 data.
The C-CPI-U was introduced with release of July data on August 16, 2002. The index in its final form employs a Tornqvist
formula and utilizes expenditure data in adjacent time periods in order to reflect the effect of any substitution that consumers make
across item categories in response to changes in relative prices. The C-CPI-U was designed to be a closer approximation to a “costof-living” index than the CPI-U and CPI-W. The use of expenditure data for both a base period and a current period distinguishes
the C-CPI-U from the other CPI measures, which use only a single expenditure base period to compute price change over time.
Because the current expenditure data required for the calculation of the C-CPI-U are available only with a time lag, the index
is issued first in preliminary form, using the latest available expenditure data at the time of publication, and is subject to two
subsequent revisions. The preliminary values for each month of the preceding two years are revised annually with release of the
January index. Expenditure data for the year 2007 are now available, and the C-CPI-U indexes for that year are now in final form.
The initial indexes for 2008 are now revised interim indexes. The C-CPI-U U.S. All Items index values for 2007 and 2008 as
originally published and revised are shown below.

CPI Detailed Report-Janaury 2009
Response Rates for the Consumer
Price Indexes, 2008
This article and the accompanying tables update articles previously published on response rates in the CPI Detailed Report
for March 1991, and in the January issues of 1993 through 2008.
In an effort to measure the outcome of data collection for the CPI, the BLS calculates response rates. Response rates
measure the proportion of completed surveys to those issued and help measure the accuracy of the CPI. Failure of a data unit
to respond at either the data collection stage or estimation stage represents a loss of statistical information which dilutes the
accuracy of the sample. The BLS publishes response rates annually to assist the data user in judging the accuracy of CPI
data.
The BLS calculates response rates for the CPI-U at the data collection and data estimation phases for pricing. The
response rate at the data collection phase is the number of responding sample units divided by the number of eligible sample
units. A sample unit is eligible if it belongs to the defined target population and if it should provide information for one or
more items. The response rate at estimation is defined as the number of sample units used in estimation divided by the
number of eligible sample units.
Response rates for 2008 are presented in tables R-1 through R-17. Table R-1 shows response rates for all data
included in the CPI-U, U.S. city average, by major group, for all of 2008. Tables R-2 through R-17 show rates for current
data collection in selected areas for which indexes are published monthly and bimonthly.
The response rates in tables R-1 through R-17 are separated into commodities and services, and the shelter portion of
housing. Commodities and services are further broken down into outlets and quotes. An "outlet" is a generic term that
designates the place where prices are collected. A "quote" is a specific item to be priced in a specific outlet. There may be
from 1 to more than 50 quotes priced in each outlet.
In table R-1, it is important to note the relatively low percentages of quotes reported, collected and used in estimation
for apparel. Low rates for these items can be partially attributed to the design of the apparel sample. Because seasonal
apparel items commonly are in stores only during certain times of the year, most of the apparel sample is doubled, with each
half of the sample designated for pricing during part of the year. Thus, at any particular time of the year, a large number of
apparel quotes, although eligible, are designated out of season and are not collected.
The response rates at the data collection phase for shelter are separated into three categories. If useable information
is obtained, the unit is designated data reported. If the assigned unit is located but is unoccupied, the unit is designated
found vacant. In instances where the unit is eligible but no data are available (for example, refusals or no one at home) the
unit is designated other.
For additional information on response rates, write to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Division of Consumer Prices
and Price Indexes, Room 3615, 2 Massachusetts Avenue, NE., Washington, DC 20212-0001, or call Sanjeev Katz at (202)
691-7000, or email him at [email protected].

- Data not available.
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.

6 Indexes on a November 1996=100 base.
- Data not available.
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.
