Abstract
The National Statistics Office generates various establishment based price indices and one of these is the Producers Price Index. The 2008 PPI (2000=100) is generated from the results of the Producer Price Survey conducted monthly by the NSO. This is done through the collection of actual producer prices from sample establishments nationwide. The PPS uses a shuttle type questionnaire which provides the respondent establishments with a running account of all monthly responses for the year. For 2008, the survey covered 595 sample products produced by 309 manufacturing establishments.
The Producer Price Index (PPI) for Manufacturing is a composite figure of producers prices of representative commodities included in the market basket. The PPI serves various purposes, the most important of which are the following:
a. measures monthly or yearly changes in the producers prices of key commodities in the manufacturing sector
b. serves as deflator to Value of Production Index (VAPI) in the estimation of Volume of Production Index (VOPI)
c. serves as deflator in the estimation of manufacturing production in real terms (at constant prices) in the system of national accounts.
The PPI is computed using the Paasche-type method of index computation . As such, the weights are continously revised upon availability of the latest data from the annual survey or census. In the case of 2008 PPI, the weights are taken from the 2005 Annual Survey of Philippine Business and Industry (ASPBI). The revision of weights , are however instituted at the beginning of each year and are used for the entire year.
