Survey of Retail Prices for the Monthly CPI 2009
Study Type
Price Survey Series Information
The NSO CPI dates back to 1945 and has undergone several revisions. Prior to that, CPI, which was then referred to as Cost of Living Index, was constructed by the Labor Statistics Division of the Department of Labor. The task of calculating the index was transferred to the Bureau of the Census and Statistics (now the National Statistics Office) on January 1, 1941
The 2009 Monthly Survey of Retail Prices for the CPI uses 2000 as its base year. The new series also features the use of separate provincial and city market baskets and the new set of 2000 weights also computed at the provincial and city level.
