(E.D.T.), THURSDAY, AUGUST 10, 1995 PRODUCER PRICE INDEXES -- JULY 1995 The Producer Price Index for Finished Goods was unchanged, seasonally adjusted, from June to July. The Finished Goods Price Index dipped slightly in June and showed no change in May. Prices received by domestic producers of intermediate goods also were unchanged in July; this index inched up 0.1 percent in June. Crude material prices declined 0.8 percent in July after increasing 0.7 percent in the previous month. (See table A.) Among finished goods in July, increases for consumer nondurable goods other than energy and for capital equipment were offset by declines for finished energy goods and for consumer durable goods. The index for finished goods other than foods and energy increased 0.2 percent in July, about the same as in recent months. Table A.

Some percent changes shown here and elsewhere in this release may differ from those previously reported because indexes for March 1995 have been recalculated to incorporate late reports and corrections by respondents. All indexes are subject to revision four months after original publication. The index for consumer goods other than foods and energy increased 0.2 percent for the second consecutive month. The largest increases were for books, newspapers, soaps and detergents, and sanitary papers. By contrast, prices declined for passenger cars (-0.7 percent), light trucks (-0.3 percent), and household flatware (-0.7 percent). The capital equipment index inched up 0.1 percent in July following a 0.2 percent rise in both May and June. Increases were registered for civilian aircraft, agricultural machinery, oil field and gas field machinery, machine tools, and heavy motor trucks.

Prices for aluminum also fell after increasing in the previous month, and the index for copper and brass mill shapes rose less than in June. Crude Goods The Producer Price Index for Crude Materials for Further Processing declined 0.8 percent in July, seasonally adjusted, after rising 0.7 percent during the previous month. Prices for crude energy materials fell more rapidly in July than in June. The index for basic industrial materials turned down 1.8 percent in July after rising 0.6 percent in the prior month. Prices for crude foodstuffs and feedstuffs rose about 4 percent for the second consecutive month. (See table B.) In July, the index for crude energy materials was down 5.4 percent following a 2.7 percent decline last month. Prices for crude petroleum dropped 9.3 percent in July compared with a decline of 4.6 percent during the prior month. The index for natural gas also fell more than in June. By contrast, coal prices inched up 0.2 percent, following a decrease of 1.2 percent a month earlier. -5- The index for crude nonfood materials less energy turned down 1.8 percent in July after moving up 0.6 percent the previous month. Following significant price increases last month, prices for raw cotton, hardwood logs, bolts and timber, and for pulpwood logs, bolts and timber all turned down in July. In addition, prices for softwood logs, bolts, and timber and for wastepaper fell faster in July than in June. The index for iron ores, however, rose 10.7 percent in July after showing no change a month earlier. Prices for copper ores increased more than in the previous month, and the cattle hides index turned up after falling in June. After advancing 4.0 percent in June, the index for crude foodstuffs and feedstuffs rose another 4.1 percent in July. Price increases for slaughter hogs, wheat, Irish potatoes for processing, and unprocessed finfish outweighed declines for fresh vegetables except potatoes, hay, fluid milk, and slaughter cattle. Net output price indexes for mining, manufacturing, and other industries Mining. The Producer Price Index for the net output of total domestic mining industries decreased 3.6 percent in July after falling 2.3 percent in the previous month. (Net output price indexes are not seasonally adjusted.) Prices for the oil and gas extraction industry group fell more in July (-5.6 percent) than in June (-2.9 percent). The index for the anthracite mining industry group was unchanged after increasing in the previous month. However, the index for the bituminous coal and lignite mining industry group turned up slightly in July after declining in June. Prices rose much more rapidly than in the previous month for the metal mining industry group. Manufacturing. The Producer Price Index for total domestic manufacturing industries inched down 0.1 percent in July after showing no change in June. In July, a 5.4-percent decline was registered for the petroleum refining industry group; this index decreased 1.5 percent in June. Prices increased, however, for food and kindred products, lumber and wood products, paper and allied products, and for printing and publishing industry groups. Other. Among other industries, prices for waste paper collection fell 10.2 percent in July after falling about half as much in June. Prices also declined more than in the previous month for tugging and towing services. Prices turned down after rising in June for scheduled air cargo transportation and deep sea domestic transportation of freight. Price increases slowed markedly for electric power utilities and nonferrous metal scrap collection. By contrast, prices turned up after falling a month earlier for passenger car rental and freight transportation arrangement. Prices rose after showing no change in the previous month for medical laboratories and local trucking without storage. Price increases accelerated for Mississippi River transportation of freight, scheduled air passenger transportation, and for truck rental and leasing. Prices fell less in July than in June for travel agencies. Resampling of industries -6- Effective with this release, another set of resampled industries is introduced into the PPI. Under the resampling procedure, the list of producers sampled for an industry is updated to reflect more accurately the current structure, membership, technology, or product mix of an industry. The Bureau of Labor Statistics published the first results of this systematic process in July 1986. Subsequent efforts have been completed at 6-month intervals. Thirty-four new or resampled industries are being introduced this month. Among the newly introduced series are data for accounting, auditing, and bookkeeping services and for advertising services. In addition, an index for the telephone communications services industry is being introduced this month. Indexes for selected telephone services that are published in table 9 of the monthly detailed report, Producer Price Indexes, will be discontinued effective next month with the publishing of data for July 1995. The newly introduced indexes for telephone communications (SIC 4813) are not continuous with the previously published indexes for selected telephone services. The newly introduced indexes are comprised of an entirely revised and updated sample; the coverage is much more comprehensive. See the July 1995 issue of Producer Price Indexes for a special article, "New Producer Price Index for the Telecommunications Industry." The new indexes for the products of the telephone communications industry appear in table 5 of Producer Price Indexes.
