The Producer Price Index for Finished Goods increased 0.7 percent in
April, seasonally adjusted, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S.
Department of Labor reported on May 11. This advance followed a 1.0 percent
rise in March and a 1.3 percent increase in February. In April, the index
for finished goods excluding foods and energy remained unchanged for the
second consecutive month. At the earlier stages of processing, prices
received by producers of intermediate goods rose 0.9 percent following a
1.0 percent increase a month earlier, and the crude goods index fell 1.5
percent after increasing 3.2 percent in March. (See table A.)

Among finished goods, prices for consumer foods moved up 0.4 percent
in April following a 1.4 percent increase in the previous month, while the
consumer goods less foods and energy index turned down 0.1 percent after
advancing 0.1 percent in the preceding month. Prices for energy goods rose
less in April than they had a month earlier - 3.4 and 3.6 percent,
respectively. By contrast, the capital equipment index edged up 0.1
percent after decreasing 0.1 percent in March, slightly counteracting the
deceleration in finished goods prices.
Before seasonal adjustment, the Producer Price Index for Finished
Goods increased 1.0 percent in April to 165.8 (1982 = 100). From April
2006 to April 2007, finished goods prices rose 3.2 percent. Over the same
period, the index for finished consumer foods advanced 7.7 percent, prices
for finished goods less foods and energy increased 1.5 percent, and the
finished energy goods index rose 3.7 percent. For the 12 months ended in
April 2007, prices received by manufacturers of intermediate goods advanced
3.7 percent, and the crude goods index jumped 11.1 percent.

change a month earlier. The industry index for long distance general
freight trucking (less than truckload) increased more than it had in March.
By contrast, prices received by the local general freight trucking industry
moved up 0.6 percent in April compared with a 2.0 percent increase in the
preceding month. The industry indexes for freight transportation
arrangement and for local messengers and delivery turned down after rising
in March.

Calculating Index Changes
Each PPI measures price changes from a reference period that equals
100.0. An increase of 5.5 percent from the reference period in the
Finished Goods Price Index, for example, is shown as 105.5. This change
also can be expressed in dollars, as follows: prices received by domestic
producers of a sample of finished goods have risen from $100 in 1982 to
$105.50. Likewise, a current index of 90.0 would indicate that prices
received by producers of finished goods are 10 percent lower than they were
in 1982.
Movements of price indexes from one month to another are usually
expressed as percent changes, rather than as changes in index points.
Index point changes are affected by the level of the index in relation to
its base period, whereas percent changes are not. The following example
shows the computation of index point and percent changes.
Index point change
Finished Goods Price Index 107.5
Less previous index 104.0
Equals index point change 3.5
Index percent change
Index point change 3.5
Divided by the previous index 104.0
Equals 0.034
Result multiplied by 100 0.034 x 100
Equals percent change 3.4

1/ Indexes in this table are derived from the net-output-weighted industry price indexes. Because of differences
in coverage and aggregation methodology, they will generally not match the movements of similarly titled
indexes which are derived from traditional commodity groupings.
2/ The indexes for December 2006 have been recalculated to incorporate late reports and corrections by respondents.
All indexes are subject to revision 4 months after original publication.
3/ Not available.
Note: NAICS replaced the SIC system beginning with the release of PPI data for January 2004.
