What is the Consumer Price Index (CPI)?
 the average change over time in the prices of:
 consumer items .
 goods
 services
that people buy for day – to – day living.
 It combines economic theory with sampling and
other statistical techniques and uses data
collected monthly to produce a timely measure
of average price change.
Cont.
 CPI provides an estimate of the price change
between any two periods.
 The CPI follows the prices of a sample of items in
12 main categories of consumer spending—such
as food, clothing, shelter, and medical service.
Why is the C P I Important?
economic indicator-

Why Update the C P I?
 Updating the CPI basket items, and their
weights; represents the current consumption
patterns made by Sudanese households.
 The item’s weight is the share of total household
expenditure on the item to total households’
expenditure on all items.
Cont.
 Used as deflator for GDP in Services Sectors for
example : Education , Health …ect.
 change the base year according to the GDP year
using the formula :
 GDP Current year
 Changed CPI
CPI basket
 The last update of the Sudanese CPI basket
items was in 2007 based on the HBS that
conducted in 2007. The previous basket of the
CPI was based on 1978.
Weights
 reflects contribution to total expenditures of
households.
 determines the impact that its price change will
have on the overall index.
CPI Calculation
 Laspeyres formula is used for the calculation.
 CPI basket consists of 663 items and the consumer
basket consists of 944 items. cut of 0.005
 temporarily missing and seasonal items are treated
by distributing their weights at the other items in
the same expenditure group.
 Prices for fruits, vegetables, fresh meat, and fish
food are collected on a weekly basis .other items are
collected once a month.
 The base year is 2007 for all the 15 northern states.
 CPI is compiled for each state and for Sudan at the
levels: state/ urban, state/ rural, and state.
CPI STRUCTURE
 Step1: Data/ Prices entry process - geographic
areas and geographic weights.
∑PnQo
∑PoQo
*100
Cont.
 Step2: Calculation of relative prices and new
weights, by dividing the current price by base
year price. In addition, the new weight is
calculated by multiplying the relative price by
the base year weight .
 Step3: To compute the minor group level, new
weights for sub-minor groups within the minor
group are aggregated and divided by the base
year weights . The same procedures are done to
calculate the Index at the major group level and
finally for the general Index.
