DETAILED AVERAGE PRICES REPORT
October 2014
In 2014, Eurostat and the National Statistical Institutes (NSIs) have carried out the
sixth project for the provision of data on price levels for a number of consumer
goods and services. This is an extension to existing work on price statistics that
includes the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) and Purchasing Power
Parities (PPP). This project presents detailed average prices (DAP) for specific
products as an additional set of price data. It is not a replacement for the
measurement of inflation (HICP) or international price level comparisons (PPPs).
An analysis into the measurement of detailed
average prices for consumer products
1. Introduction
The Detailed Average Prices (DAP) project was developed in 2008 with the aim to
supplement the existing price index statistics. The main reasons for DAP are the need of more
detailed price level data for improved monitoring of Single Market policies and the
understanding of how markets work. The results of the DAP are used in the ‘Consumer
Markets Scoreboard’ (CMS)1. Apart from providing the values, this report explains how the
DAP were compiled and can be interpreted. It should be noted that the resulting average
prices should only be regarded as ‘indicative price levels’. The reasons for this are given
below in the text.
2.
Methods
2.1. HICP and PPP data
The present report is based on price data collected in 2013 for a set of consumer products. The
products were specified using a reduced version of the PPP standard product definitions.
The HICP is a monthly inflation measure covering the European Union (EU) countries,
Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey. The HICP does not need to measure prices for
each and every product. It suffices with a sample of product offers in each elementary
aggregate. The product descriptions used for the HICP allow for some flexibility. Price
collectors will, in general, select the same products in two consecutive months in order to
optimise price comparisons over time.
At detailed level, HICP data comparability across countries may be limited. Firstly, there will
be many differences between the products that are selected due to differences in the sampling
approaches adopted by the NSIs. Secondly, product definitions in the Member States may be
a mix of tight and loose descriptions which can mean that the NSIs may collect different
combination of products. Thirdly, the products for which prices are observed are not
necessarily the most representative products in the market (after all the HICP should not only
follow prices for market leaders). Moreover the comparability over time of price levels will be
more limited than that of price indices. Resampling and replacements will result in the
observation of differing products over time and there may be differences in actual outlet
distribution in the successive samples.
On the other hand, PPPs are based on a selection of products according to the same strict
product description. Using PPP data would in principle give more comparability of product
specifications across countries. However, in many cases these products are available and

2014.

observed only in part of the countries and only contribute to the price level comparisons
among these countries. The PPP survey is only conducted once per three years because
supplying PPP data more frequently would involve considerable additional costs. Moreover
PPP data at present is limited to capital cities. Finally, the number of price quotes collected
per product is low so, at the most detailed level, the existing PPP data set has not been
considered sufficiently reliable for publication.
In 2013, the NSIs in the EU Member States, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey were
asked to provide DAP for a list of 198 products. These were selected because they were
assumed to be both available and relevant (representative) in most countries. The product
descriptions were based on recent PPP exercises. The choice of products was aimed at
providing a wide variety of prices across product groups, including both goods and services.
Product definition – the example of TVs
One difficult methodological choice is the description of the product, since product descriptions can be
rather loose or rather tight. This can be best illustrated with the example of TVs. When defining the
product ‘television set’, on the one hand, the price level can be defined as the average price of all kind
of television sets. On the other hand, the product can be defined as a television set of a particular
brand, having a number of characteristics; like screen-type, screen-size, or colour.
When comparing prices for television sets across countries using the widest definition, the differences
may be attributable to different characteristics of the devices. People in one country may spend small
amounts buying small size televisions, while people in other countries may spend large amounts
buying large HD-television sets.
When comparing prices for television sets across countries using the tightest definition, the price
difference for one specific television set does not imply that this price difference will occur for each
type of television. The tighter the product description is, the smaller is the share of the market covered
by the price. To have an overview of the market, it is necessary to compare the prices of more
‘television set’ products. Also the television set compared has different relevance in every country.
This relevance depends on consumer preferences, producers' market shares, and other factors.
In the PPP project, tight product descriptions were developed. In HICP, looser product descriptions are
used aiming at comparing the same products within one outlet over time, but allowing differences of
products across outlets.
In the DAP project, pragmatic choices were made, based on product descriptions used in PPP, which
aims at comparability of products across countries. However, in many cases PPP product descriptions
were loosened in order to improve market coverage.

2.2. The definition of price levels
The results show indicative price levels within the scope of the definitions used.
Therefore the results should be interpreted as indicative price levels for the product
included; they do not represent official national average prices.
The indicative price levels are the averages of prices measured in the outlets selected for price
observations. In every Member State, the products have been selected following the
procedures of its NSI. In many cases the most popular product types were measured, often in
the most popular outlets. The prices collected may be affected by special offers and seasonal
sales.
Short term consumer responses to changing market circumstances do not influence the
resulting average price. If a special offer in one outlet induces a large number of consumers to
buy that product in that outlet, this will affect the average price paid by consumers but not the
average of the price offers collected.
Detailed price levels were in many countries computed using an unweighted arithmetic
average of the price observations. In some countries regional price observations were weighed
using e.g. regional population figures.
2.3. Currencies
All prices were provided in national currencies by the NSIs. For comparability reasons, they
were all converted to euro prices. The exchange rates used for the countries that have not
adopted the euro and provided monthly data (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Croatia, Latvia2,
Lithuania, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Switzerland and Turkey) are average annual rates as
published by Eurostat for 2013. The exchange rates used for the country that have not adopted
the euro and provided exclusively June data (United Kingdom) are average monthly rates as
published by Eurostat for June 2013.
The indicative prices may be influenced by short term fluctuations in exchange rates. The
impact of the change in an exchange rate on the prices may depend on whether products were
imported or produced locally, the tradability of products and other reasons.

Latvia adopted the euro on 1 January 2014. In 2013, when the prices were collected, the Latvian Lats was
the currency used in Latvia.

2.4. Available data
There are prices that are not available for several reasons, including the following:
•
Low consumption level of the product or even non-availability that implied the
product was not part of the sample.
•
The observed product was not according to the specifications.
•
Some national statistical institutes were not willing to supply data for publication,
for various reasons, including considering the results insufficiently comparable.
2.5. Package size
In the product descriptions a quantity and a reference quantity are given. The quantity gives
the range of packages that were allowed for price comparison. The reference quantity gives
the quantity to which the price was rescaled, often price per kilogram or litre, in order to make
prices comparable.
Nevertheless, the size of the package is an important characteristic since prices per unit for a
small package are usually higher than prices per unit for a large package. Although ideally
packages of the same size should be compared, there are often differences between Member
States. The reasons are different sizes as the usual package, price collector choice, etc.
2.6. Comparability of results
There are several factors that influence price differences and limit the comparability of the
results, including the following:
•
One product cannot represent the full market in all countries for the consumption
segments involved. This means that the average price of e.g., a loaf of white bread
may not be indicative of the price level of bread in general in a given country.
5
•
Even if products are identical across countries, they may not have the same
relevance for the consumers in the various countries. For example a product may
be a market-leader in one, while at the same time being a niche product in another
country.
•
The positions of the selected products on national markets may differ across
countries even within the limits of the product description used. For example there
may be differences in market situations of ‘table wines’ between wine producing
countries and countries that do not produce wine themselves.
•
The outlet structure across countries may be different. For example price
differences across countries for ice-cream could be related to differences in market
and outlet structure (locally produced or sold in supermarkets).
•
The outlet distribution in the samples at the individual product level need not be
representative for the distribution of outlets where the product is actually sold. If
prices for a product are observed mainly in supermarkets, average prices may be
different from prices observed in specialist stores or open markets.
•
The samples may cover only price for some types of brands and exclude some
other brand levels. If the selection of brand levels for the same products differs
across countries, this will influence comparability.
•
Even within the boundaries of the product descriptions, quality differences may
exist to a varying degree. An example of a product where these differences are
very important is clothing and footwear. It is very difficult to ensure that prices for
clothing and footwear products of comparable quality are measured across
countries or are even available on the market.
2.7. Comparability over time
When comparing the indicative price levels results over time they should be interpreted with
great care. Only the HICP should be considered as the measure for European consumer
inflation. The price differences may come from various reasons other than inflation:
•
The indicative price levels have been translated into euro price levels. Changes in
currency exchange rates will affect the prices of countries that are not members of
the European Monetary Union (EMU).
•
It is not possible to indicate in successive publications what the impact of quality
change (different product description over time) may have been on the
development of indicative price levels.
•
Differences across time in the distribution of outlets may influence the differences
in the indicative price levels.

3. Results
This is the sixth DAP project. The first four projects were performed using June prices in
2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, and the results were published in Eurostat’s website. Since 2012,
the countries have been asked to report monthly prices. Most of them reported monthly prices;
six could only report June prices and seven countries did not provide any data:

Prices for 193 products are published compared to 66, 79, 87, 156 and 156 products published
in the first five projects.
In addition to the methodological reasons for price differences explained in Section 2.6, there
may be many other reasons including:
•
Differences in taxes and excises.
•
Differences in labour costs, particularly for locally produced goods and services, in
distribution costs, rents or other retailers' costs.
•
Differences in the tradability of products or competition, or in the general price
level.
Out of the 198 products for which prices were requested from national statistical institutes,
193 are entered in this report. Five products are not published because very few countries
were able to supply price level data according to the product description. In many cases, the
prices for products with some differences in specification were provided.
7
If a country reported a price that corresponds to the product description as specified in the
tables, the average price is entered into the table without further comment. If there are
differences in the description that are considered as not too large, the price is entered into the
table with a footnote specifying the difference. If the differences in product description are
very significant, implying that the prices may not be broadly comparable, the price is not
entered in the tables.
The tables with observed price levels are on the next pages. The following table gives a
summary of the results of the exercise.

4. Further steps
There is a strong need to define in more detail the conceptual framework for DAP and to
assess to which extent these prices are comparable within and across countries. The concerns
raised refer to issues such as the differences in the precise product definitions, the partly large
coefficient of variation, the meaningfulness of the concept of average prices from a
methodological point of view and the difficulties to derive the required information from the
HICP collection of basic data. The conceptual definition of average price and the degree of
precision of the product specifications used are discussed in this chapter.
4.1. Price definitions
For defining an exact concept one could formulate three competing definitions at the detailed
level:
1. Quantity-weighted; this is also called the unit value, where summation are over
purchases of the specified product in all outlets over a given time period. This is a very
clear concept which takes into account changing prices, even for different consumers.
8
2. Weighted (by anything else than quantity); in this case weighting of prices is by size
or type of outlet. The size could be defined in various ways such as turnover, number
of employees, floor/shelf space or something else. However this definition is still not
quite complete since there will be different prices in the outlet for a product in any
given time period. Therefore we must define an average price inside the outlet in the
time period by unit value, a restriction to a special day/week or something else (simple
averages over mid-days or mid-weeks of the months is a possibility).
3. Un-weighted; p =  p j N , where N is the total number of observations for a given
product. Again modifications so as to focus on certain days/weeks are possible.
The quantity-weighted definition is the only one that is strict in the sense that it does not need
any complementary specifications. It answers a clear and relevant question of how much
consumers pay on average for a unit of a certain product. With access to scanner data this
definition will also be operational.
The two other definitions will in different ways answer the question of what prices consumers
are on average offered regardless of how much they actually buy for this price. This
definition relates more closely to the sampling practices used today, where outlets are usually
sampled in a first stage.
The economic meaning of the difference between the two concepts average price paid versus
average price offered is not clear. But we note that the price paid is the easier concept to
provide with a strict definition. Furthermore, PPP’s follow offered prices (and without
discounts) whereas HICPs are more ambiguous in this respect. Although the objective has
been on “what consumers actually pay” HICPs have traditionally followed offered prices but
with the advent of scanner data more and more focus is on average price paid.
4.2. Product specifications
In another dimension one could look at product specifications, from tight to loose. Also here,
let us consider three categories:
• Tight definitions so that there are no noticeable quality differences within the definition.
Here brand and model will usually have to be included. For example ‘Zeta Olive oil, extra
virgin, bottle of one litre’ or ‘Samsung 32 LED TV model UE32F4005’.
• Semi-tight definitions such as those used at present for DAP. For example ‘olive oil, extra
virgin, bottle or tin, 0.5-1 litre’ or ‘flat panel LCD 32’. Within such definitions there will
be an element of quality variation which can be smaller or larger for different products.
• Loose, generic definition such as ‘olive oil’ or ‘TV’. Within such definitions there will not
only be quality variation but also essentially different functionalities.
It should be noted that in current HICP practices semi-tight or loose product specifications are
normally used in a first step. When the price collector chooses an item in the outlet, a tightly
specified product offer is selected whose price is followed over time. But these specifications
will typically vary between outlets so that a national average price using DAP specifications
will be over many products of different quality.
9
PPP definitions are generally tight specifications, which will include ‘brand’ if this is a
relevant price determining characteristic. PPP average prices should be for more
homogeneous specifications and show less variation than CPI derived average prices.
However, for some comparison resistant or hard to define products such as clothing and
furniture, this may not always be the case because the range of brands is too large and differs
too much by country with local brands being typical in many countries. But PPPs will classify
quality levels in an attempt at increasing comparability, given the often small samples. It is
most probably for this reason that some NSIs prefer separate PPP-style collections for the
provision of DAP.
4.3. The conceptualization
The two dimensions can be combined into a 3x3 table:
Conceptualization of average price
Product specification
Type of average
Tight
Semi-tight
Loose
Quantity-weighted
Average price paid for
constant quality product
Average price paid for
product of variable quality
Average price paid for
one unit in product group
Outlet weighted
Average price offered for
constant quality product
with actual purchasing
patterns
Average price offered for
product of variable quality
with actual purchasing
patterns
Average price offered for
one unit in product group
with actual purchasing
patterns
Un-weighted
Average price offered for
constant quality product for
random purchasing
behavior
Average price offered for
product of variable quality
for random purchasing
behavior
Average price offered for
one unit in product group
for random purchasing
behavior
Which of these conceptualizations is relevant and interesting? Clearly the definition in the
upper left-hand corner Average price paid for constant quality product is an interesting one.
There is also an interesting interpretation of the upper right-hand corner Average price paid
for one unit in product group, for example: How much did a consumer in country X on
average pay for a TV in 2013? This question could have a bearing on issues related to
standard of living in a country and what the population can afford or is willing to pay.
It is more difficult to see which of the concepts related to semi-tight specifications would be
of interest to an economist? It seems to depend on whether the specification itself refers to an
interesting consumption segment. For example Smartphone (with camera and internet
capability) or LCD TV (of a specified size) that allows all brands might be of interest.
Although there will be significant quality variation, the basic functionality will be more or
less the same so that average price paid could be of interest.
In general, the concepts related to semi-tight specifications are more or less close to either the
tight or the loose conceptualizations. Slightly simplified we could say that a semi-tight
specification covers products with the same basic functionality but with quality differences
10
within the specification. In contrast, a loose specification is often so wide that even the basic
functionality could differ and the concept of quality differences is rendered meaningless.
5. Conclusions
Some conclusions following this project are as follows:
• There seem to be large differences between the samples of goods and services for which
prices are collected in the Member States and these differences can to a large extent be
explained by the fact that the national sample must be representative of the national market
situation.
• Several countries, instead of building the compilation of DAP on the multipurpose price
statistics approach, have started a separate survey in order to be able to supply DAP data.
• The long term goal of producing average prices for European countries could be based on
data sets with transaction prices and quantities. The main reason is that the average price
paid for constant quality product is the clearest and most rigorously defined concept of
average. This concept requires a tightly specified product in combination with a quantityweighted average price. This objective could become applicable with scanner data.
