Higher fuel prices drove the March advance and nonfuel prices also increased. U.S. export prices rose 4.5 percent in March, after advancing 3.0 percent the previous month. Imports The price index for U.S. imports increased 2.6 percent in March, the largest monthly rise since April 2011. Prices for U.S. imports advanced 12.5 percent for the year ended in March, the largest 12-month increase since a 12.7-percent rise in September 2011. (See table 1.) Fuel Imports: Prices for import fuel advanced 14.6 percent in March, after increasing 10.0 percent in February and 7.3 percent in January. The March rise was the largest 1-month advance since a 15.2-percent increase in July 2020. The March increase was led by higher petroleum prices which rose 16.1 percent following an 11.3-percent advance in February. In contrast, natural gas prices declined 4.2 percent in March, after decreasing 4.3 percent the previous month. Import fuel prices rose 66.7 percent from March 2021 to March 2022. The price indexes for petroleum and natural gas advanced 66.5 percent and 79.7 percent, respectively, over the same period. All Imports Excluding Fuel: Nonfuel import prices increased 1.2 percent in March following a 0.7-percent advance the previous month. Higher prices for nonfuel industrial supplies and materials; capital goods; consumer goods; and foods, feeds, and beverages each factored into the March increase in nonfuel import prices. Prices for nonfuel imports rose 7.5 percent for the year ended in March, the largest over-the-year advance since 12-month percent changes were first published in December 2002. Nonfuel prices have not recorded a 12-month decline since June 2020. Foods, Feeds, and Beverages: Prices for import foods, feeds, and beverages ticked up 0.1 percent in March, after increasing 1.6 percent in February. Higher prices for food oils and fish in March largely offset a 5.3- percent decline in fruit prices. Nonfuel Industrial Supplies and Materials: The price index for nonfuel industrial supplies and materials advanced 4.7 percent in March following a 2.3-percent increase in February. Higher prices in March for unfinished metals, finished metals, selected building materials, and chemicals each contributed to the increase in nonfuel industrial supplies and materials prices. Finished Goods: Prices for most of the major finished goods categories increased in March. The price index for capital goods advanced 0.3 percent for the second consecutive month. Capital goods prices last recorded a monthly decline in November 2019. Prices for consumer goods rose 0.2 percent in March, after increasing 0.3 percent in February. Consumer goods prices advanced 3.0 percent over the past year, the largest 12- month rise since a 3.4-percent increase from December 2010 to December 2011. Automotive vehicles prices were unchanged in March. Table A. Percent change in Import and Export Price Indexes, selected categories

Exports Prices for U.S. exports advanced 4.5 percent in March following a 3.0-percent rise in February and a 2.8- percent increase in January. All 3 advances were the largest monthly increases since 1-month percent changes were first published in January 1989. Higher prices for both agricultural and nonagricultural exports in March contributed to the overall rise in U.S. export prices. U.S. export prices advanced 18.8 percent over the past year, the largest over-the-year increase since 12-month percent changes were first published in September 1984. (See table 2.) Agricultural Exports: The price index for agricultural exports rose 4.7 percent in March, the largest monthly advance since May 2021. Higher prices for soybeans, wheat, and corn drove the rise in March. Agricultural export prices increased 20.8 percent for the 12 months ended in March, led by rising prices for soybeans, wheat, corn, and meat. All Exports Excluding Agriculture: Nonagricultural export prices rose 4.5 percent in March, after 3.0- percent and 2.7-percent increases the 2 previous months. Higher prices for nonagricultural industrial supplies and materials; capital goods; consumer goods; automotive vehicles; and nonagricultural food all contributed to the March advance. Prices for nonagricultural exports rose 18.5 percent from March 2021 to March 2022. Nonagricultural Industrial Supplies and Materials: The price index for nonagricultural industrial supplies and materials increased 8.7 percent in March, the largest 1-month advance since monthly percent changes were first published in October 1992. Higher prices for fuel, nonferrous metals, and chemicals led the March increase. Finished Goods: Prices for each of the major finished goods categories advanced in March. Capital goods prices rose 0.5 percent driven by higher prices for industrial and service machinery and computers, peripherals, and semiconductors. The price indexes for consumer goods and automotive vehicles each advanced 0.8 percent in March. More information for the major import and export price indexes can be found at www.bls.gov/web/ximpim/largest.htm. Measures of Import and Export Prices by Locality Imports by Locality of Origin: Import prices from China increased 0.5 percent in March following a 0.2- percent rise in February. The March advance was led by higher fabricated metal prices. The price index for imports from China rose 4.8 percent for the year ended in March. The price index for imports from Japan increased 0.4 percent in March, after ticking up 0.1 percent the previous month. The March advance was the largest increase since the index rose 0.5 percent in April 2021. Import prices from Japan increased 1.8 percent over the past year. Prices for imports from Canada rose 7.3 percent in March, the largest 1-month advance since the index increased 13.8 percent in June 2020.

Exports by Locality of Destination: Prices for exports to China increased 5.0 percent in March following advances of 2.8 percent in February and 2.4 percent in January. The March rise was the largest monthly increase since 1-month percent changes were first published in January 2018.

U.S. terms of trade with China advanced 4.5 percent in March, the largest monthly increase since 1-month percent changes were first published in January 2018. Rising export prices to China more than offset advancing import prices from China. The index for U.S. terms of trade with China rose 10.5 percent over the past 12 months. U.S. terms of trade with Japan advanced 4.7 percent in March following increases of 3.3 percent and 3.8 percent the 2 previous months.

In contrast, U.S. terms of trade with Canada decreased 4.2 percent in March following a 2.3-percent decline in February. (See table 9.) Import and Export Services Imports: Import air passenger fares rose 8.6 percent in March, after advancing 6.1 percent the previous month. Higher European fares, Asian fares, and Latin American/Caribbean fares all contributed to the March increase. The index for import air passenger fares rose 11.2 percent from March 2021 to March 2022, the largest over-the-year advance since September 2021. Prices for import air freight increased 1.7 percent in March following a 9.2-percent decrease in February. Import air freight prices advanced 18.3 percent for the year ended in March. (See table 10.) Exports: Export air passenger fares rose 7.0 percent in March, after declining 11.2 percent in February and increasing 7.7 percent in January. The March advance was driven by higher Latin American/Caribbean fares, European fares, and Asian fares. Export air passenger fares rose 9.8 percent over the past 12 months. The price index for export air freight advanced 3.4 percent in March following a 6.3-percent increase the previous month. Export air freight prices rose 19.6 percent over the past year, the largest 12-month increase since a 20.5-percent advance from September 2007 to September 2008.

NOTES: Data may be revised in each of the 3 months after original publication. |
TECHNICAL NOTE Import and Export Goods and Services Price Indexes - All indexes use a modified Laspeyres formula and are not seasonally adjusted. Price indexes are reweighted annually, with a 2-year lag in the weights. Published series use a base year of 2000=100 where possible. More detailed index series and additional information may be obtained at www.bls.gov/mxp or by calling (202) 691-7101. Merchandise Goods Classification Systems - The merchandise price indexes are published using three classification systems. Items are classified by end use according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis Classification System, by industry according to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), and by product category according to the Harmonized System (HS). While classification by end use and product category are self-explanatory, some notes are in order for classifying items by industry. In the NAICS imports and exports tables, items are classified by output industry, not input industry. As an example, NAICS import index 326 (plastics and rubber products manufacturing) includes outputs such as manufactured plastic rather than inputs such as petroleum. The NAICS classification structure also matches the classification system used by the Producer Price Index (PPI) to produce the NAICS primary products indexes. Import Price Goods Indexes - Items are classified by the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States Annotated (TSUSA). Import prices are based on U.S. dollar prices paid by the U.S. importer. The prices are generally either "free on board" (f.o.b.) foreign port or "cost, insurance, and freight" (c.i.f.) U.S. port transaction prices, depending on the practices of the individual industry. The index for crude petroleum is calculated from data collected by the U.S. Department of Energy. Export Price Goods Indexes - Items are classified by the Harmonized Schedule B classification system of the U.S. Bureau of the Census. The prices used are generally either "free alongside ship" (f.a.s.) factory or "free on board" (f.o.b.) transaction prices, depending on the practices of the individual industry. Prices used in the grain index, excluding rice, are obtained from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Services Price Indexes - Indexes for import and export air passenger fares calculate changes in the average revenue received per passenger by foreign carriers from U.S. residents and by U.S. carriers from foreign residents, respectively. Data are obtained from an airline consulting service and report on tickets sold by travel agencies, travel websites, and directly by the airlines. Taxes and fees are included in both the import and export air passenger fares indexes. Import air passenger fares data have used the airline consulting service source since September 2008. Before April 2018, the export air passenger fares data were collected directly by BLS from U.S. airlines. The air freight indexes are calculated from data collected directly from airlines. These data exclude mail and passenger baggage. The scope of the service being priced is the movement of freight from airport to airport only, and does not include any ground transportation or port service. The air freight indexes are presented using two definitions: balance of payments (which represents transactions between U.S. and foreign residents) and international (which represents transactions inbound to and outbound from the United States.) Fact sheets specifying detailed information for each services industry are available at www.bls.gov/mxp under "MXP Publications." Import Price Indexes by Locality of Origin - Prices used in these indexes are a subset of the data collected for the import price indexes. The indexes are specific to a country, region, or grouping and, beginning with January 2002, are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) covering goods-producing industries. Nonmanufactured goods are defined as NAICS 11 and 21, and manufactured goods are defined as NAICS 31-33. Export Price Indexes by Locality of Destination - Prices used in these indexes are a subset of the data collected for the export price indexes. The indexes are specific to a country, region, or grouping and are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) covering goods-producing industries. Nonmanufactured goods are defined as NAICS 11 and 21, and manufactured goods are defined as NAICS 31-33. Terms of Trade Indexes - Terms of trade indexes measure the relative price of exports in terms of import prices for a specific country, region, or grouping. The indexes are calculated as one country, region, or grouping's all-export goods price index divided by the corresponding all-import goods price index on a scale of 100. Relative Importance - A relative importance is a specific index's price-updated value share (expressed as a percentage) of overall imports or exports at a specific point in time. Relative importance values are affected by the trade weights at the point indexes are reweighted and index changes relative to other indexes since the reweight point. If an index is rising in value relative to other indexes over time, the relative importance will increase as well. Revision Policy - To reflect the availability of late reports and corrections by respondents, monthly data may be revised in each of the 3 months after original publication. After 3 months, no further data revisions take place. For example, data first published in the January release will be subject to revision in the releases for February, March, and April. Rounding Policy - Index values are rounded to the tenth decimal place after being calculated. All percent changes are then derived from the rounded index values and subsequently rounded to the tenth decimal place. Uses of the Data - The primary use of the indexes is to deflate trade statistics, notably the foreign trade sector of the National Income and Product Accounts (NIPA) constructed by the Department of Commerce. Other published indexes are useful for general market analysis. For trade in international services, balance of payments indexes are used for deflating NIPA, while international indexes are more appropriate for market analysis.
