Service suggests that firms use PPI data
for making calculations. Private
businesses make extensive use of
industrial-price data for planning and
operations. Price trends are used to
assess the condition of markets. Firms
commonly compare the prices they pay
for material inputs as well as prices they
receive for products that they make and
sell with changes in similar PPIs.
Economic researchers and forecasters
also put the PPI to regular use. PPIs are
widely used to probe and measure the
interaction of market forces. Some
examples of research topics that require
extensive price data include: The
identification of varying price
elasticities and the degree of cost passthrough in the economy, the
identification of potential lead and lag
structures among price changes, and the
identification of prices which exert
major impacts throughout market
structures.
of the PPI collection is to accumulate
data for the ongoing, monthly
publication of the PPI family of indexes.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics must
continue collecting data for the PPI
since both policy and business planning
are affected by the completeness of the
description of price trends. Dollardenominated measures of economic
performance, such as Gross Domestic
Product, require accurate price data in
order to convert nominal to constantdollar values. Inflation-free national
income accounting figures are vital to
fiscal and monetary policy-makers when
setting objectives and targets. It is
conservatively estimated that hundredsof-billions of dollars’ worth of contracts
and purchase agreements employ PPIs
as part of price-adjustment clauses.
Failure to calculate data would tend to
extend the time frame required for
accurate recognition of and appropriate
adaptation to economic events.
II. Current Action
Office of Management and Budget
clearance is being sought for the PPI
survey.
The PPI collection is not a one-time
project with an end date. The purpose
III. Desired Focus of Comments

for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including

• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
