    About this ebook

    What is Consumer Price Index


    According to the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is a type of price index, the price of a market basket of consumer goods and services that are purchased by households is the price of the market basket. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a statistic that tracks changes in prices over time. A representative basket of products and services is utilized in the calculation of the Consumer Price Index (CPI). In order to take into account the shifting patterns of consumer purchasing, the basket is updated on a regular basis. A representative sample of retail and service companies is contacted on a monthly basis to get the pricing of the items and services that are included in the basket. When there is a change in the quality or features, the prices are then modified accordingly. The changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) may be utilized to monitor inflation over a period of time and to compare the rates of inflation in other nations. Despite the fact that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) is not an ideal estimator of inflation or the cost of living, it is a helpful instrument for monitoring key economic variables.
