Producer Price Index Standard Errors: 2015

Released on: 15 December 2015 | Article

The Producer Price Index (PPI), produced by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), is a monthly survey that measures the price changes of goods bought and sold by UK manufacturers. The output PPI measures changes in the price of goods produced by UK manufacturers. The output price (also known as the factory gate price) reflects the total price received by the manufacturer for a particular product. It includes costs such as labour, raw materials and energy, as well as interest on loans, site and building maintenance or rent. This article presents the calculated standard errors of the output PPI during the period December 2014 to November 2015, for both 12-month and month-on-month growth rates. These are calculated for all manufacturing (Gross Sector Output (GSO) including duty) and for Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) divisions. Index values and corresponding 95% confidence intervals for the period December 2014 to November 2015 are also calculated for all manufacturing (GSO including duty).
