16 Income and Prices

Introduction

omprehensive data on the level and distribution of family income and expenditures are crucial inputs in the formulation and implementation of development programs for families and communities with the most need. The National Statistics Office (NSO) keeps data users abreast on these “family economics” through its conduct of the Family Income and Expenditure Survey (FIES) every three years.

The 2009 FIES is the most recent survey of NSO that provides information on the levels of living and disparities in income of Filipino families, as well as their spending patterns. During the years when the FIES is not taken, the Annual Poverty Indicators Survey (APIS), a non-income quality of life survey, is conducted in its place. The APIS is designed to provide access and impact indicators that can be used in the assessment of the government programs on poverty alleviation.

Data derived from FIES and APIS provide benchmark information to update weights in the estimation of the consumer price index (CPI) and the country’s poverty threshold and inventory incidence.

This chapter presents the results of the 2009 FIES and 2010 APIS. Data on consumer, wholesale, and retail price indicators for 2010 are also presented in the latter part of this chapter. 16.1 The Family Income and Expenditure Survey

The first FIES was conducted in March 1957 to determine the income distribution and spending patterns of Filipino families. Subsequent surveys were conducted in 1961, 1965, 1971, 1985, and every three years thereafter, until 2003. In 1975, when FIES was merged with the Integrated Census of the Population and its Economic Activities (ICPEA), the primary objective had been to measure the productivity of the household as well as the income and employment generated by the household activities.

The 1957 and 1961 FIES. The March 1957 survey, which covered all income levels in the urban and rural areas of the country, collected data on cash and noncash income received, and on expenditure incurred by families in 1956. Five years later, a survey of the same nature was conducted in 1961 as the reference period. As samples, this survey considered 3,541 and 3,436 families from urban and rural areas of the country, respectively.

The 1965 and 1971 FIES. In the 1965 FIES, a total of 7,747 families located in 37 cities and 489 municipalities were interviewed. The 1971 FIES, on the other hand, had 11,659 samples, 4,199 of which were systematically selected from urban areas and 7,460, from rural areas. Unlike the 1957 and 1966 surveys, whose reference periods were the respective calendar years 1956 and 1965, the 1971 survey covered the period May 1970 to April 1971. Estimates for food, beverage, and tobacco expenditures, however, were based on the week prior to the interview. For the first time since 1956, estimates of family savings and deficits were made. The 1975 FIES. Unlike the data gathered through the aforementioned surveys, the 1975 income-expenditure data were obtained from two separate activities. Family living expenditure was taken from the 1975 FIES, while family income was from Phase II of the 1975 ICPEA. The total number of households covered in FIES, however, was only a portion of ICPEA, that is, of the 454,844 households covered in ICPEA, only 15,832 were taken as subsamples for FIES. Similar to the 1971 survey, the reference period considered by the 1975 FIES on food, beverage, and tobacco expenditures was also the calendar week before the visit of census field workers. The 1985 FIES. In 1985, a new series of FIES in terms of content and methodology had begun and the gap of conducting this survey was reduced to three years from five years. The FIES also became a regular module of the Integrated Survey of Households (ISH) of the NSO. For the 1985 FIES, 17,000 sample households were interviewed, a number considered sufficient to provide reliable estimates of income and expenditures. The survey was conducted in two separate operations using the same questionnaire. The first visit was in July 1985 with the first six months of the year as the reference period, and the second visit, in January 1986, with July to December 1985 as the reference period. For purposes of estimating annual data, the results of the first-visit survey were combined with those of the second visit. The 1988 FIES. Adopting the same questionnaire design, procedures, and processing system used in 1985, the 1988 FIES was also a two-round sample survey conducted nationwide in July 1988 and January 1989. The sample size was increased to 20,000 households. The 1988 estimates as presented in this chapter, however, do not include the data for the province of Rizal. Fire gutted the accomplished questionnaires for the province after the second-visit operation and due to cost and time constraints, no reinter views were made. The results of the 1988 FIES, moreover, served as benchmark information in updating the weighs used in the estimation of the 1988-based CPI. The 1994 FIES. Like the three preceding FIES, the 1994 FIES adopted the “shuttle type” of data collection, in which sample households were interviewed in two separate operations. The scheme aimed at improving the quality of data gathered since it minimized memory bias of respondents and at the same time captured the seasonality of income and expenditure patterns. The first-visit operation of the 1994 survey was carried out nationwide in July 1994 and covered about 25,516 sample households. The second operation took place in January 1995.

NSO 2011 Philippine Yearbook

The 1997 FIES. The ninth FIES, which was conducted in 1997, covered a total of 40,992 sample households in 3,416 barangays throughout the archipelago. The 1997 FIES adopted the master sample (MS) design of the ISH. This design was similar to that of the previous ISH design used in past surveys, but was expanded to include more samples and newly created domains. The “shuttle type” data collection was again adopted. Thus, two major operations were conducted: the first visit in July 1997 (with reference period January to June 1997), followed by the February 1998 visit (covering the second semester of 1997). The 2003 FIES. The sampling design of the 2003 FIES used the 2003 MS constructed from the Enumeration Area Reference File (EARF) of the 2000 Census of Population and Housing. The number of sample households reached about 51,000 households nationwide, which was deemed sufficient to provide precise and reliable estimates at the regional level. In this design, the country’s 17 administrative regions were defined based on Executive Order Nos. 36 and 131. For comparability of results, the 2000 FIES data in this release were generated using the new regional grouping. Further, to compare the 2003 FIES estimates with the 2000 FIES results in real terms, the effects of inflation were removed by using the CPI to deflate the 2003 FIES estimates. The 2006 FIES. The 2006 FIES used four replicates of the 2003 MS created for household surveys on the basis of the 2000 Census of Population and Housing. Enumeration was conducted twice – the first visit was done in July 2006 with the first semester as the reference period; the second visit was made in January 2007 with the second semester of 2006 as reference period. The same set of questions was asked for both visits. A stratified, three-stage sampling design was employed: the selection of Primary Sampling Units (PSUs) for the first stage, sample enumeration areas (EAs) for the second stage, and sampling units for the third stage. The domains were the regions which were stratified by province, highly urbanized city (HUC), independent component city (ICC), and other factors within the geographical strata. The overall sampling fractions varied across regions to generate adequate sample size for each region. Survey weights were used in order to produce valid estimates of the population parameter. Base weights were computed to compensate for the unequal selection probabilities in the sample design. These were adjusted to account for unit nonresponsive and to conform to known population distributions like the projected population counts. The 2009 FIES. The 2009 FIES used four replicates of the 2003 Master Sample (MS) created for household surveys on the basis of the 2000 Census of Population and Housing. Enumeration was conducted twice – the first visit was done in July 2009 with the first semester January to June as the reference period; the second visit was made in January 2010 with the second semester of 2009, that is, July to December as reference period. The same set of questions was asked for both visits. A stratified, three-stage sampling design was employed: the selection of Primary Sampling Units (PSUs) for the first stage, sample enumeration areas (EAs) for the second stage, and sampling units for the third stage. The domains were the regions which were stratified by province, highly urbanized city (HUC), independent component city (ICC), and other factors within the geographical strata. The overall

sampling fractions vary across regions to generate adequate sample size for each region. Survey weights are used in order to produce valid estimates of the population parameter. Base weights were computed to compensate for the unequal selection probabilities in the sample design. These were adjusted to account for unit nonresponsive and to conform to known population distributions like projected population counts. 16.2 Family Income Definition of Terms

To understand better the concepts presented here, the following are defined:

Family – a group of persons usually living together and composed of the head and other persons related to the head by blood, marriage, or adoption. An individual living alone is also considered a separate family. Throughout the survey, the concept of extended family was followed. Household – includes nonrelatives of the head who live in the same dwelling unit and share the same food. Family income – includes primary income and receipts from other sources received by all family members during the calendar year as participants in any economic activity or as recipients of transfers, pensions, grants, and the like. Sources of primary income – salaries and wages, commissions, tips, bonuses, family and clothing allowances, transportation and representation allowances, honoraria and other forms of compensation, and income from other entrepreneurial activities, such as net receipts of profits derived from the operation of family enterprise and from the practice of a profession or trade. Income – money received from all sources before tax and other deductions for retirement, social security, union dues, insurance premiums, and all other contributions reflected in the payroll. It also includes gifts of food and nonfood items received in kind in the form of support, assistance, or relief. Food items include only those received and consumed by the family during the reference period. These may be from other households, charitable institutions, the government, or from persons abroad, free of charge. Income decile – a grouping of income. Two levels of income deciles are utilized in the FIES: national and regional. The national income decile is obtained by ranking the weighted total family income of all sample families in the country from lowest to highest. Then, these are grouped into tens. The first tenth, referring to those with the lowest income, is called the first decile; the second tenth, second decile; and so on. A similar procedure is implemented for the regional decile, except that, what is arrayed is the weighted total family income of sample families in a given region.


Per capita income – income obtained by dividing the total family income by the total number of family members. Expenditure – expense or disbursement made by the family for personal consumption. It excludes all expenses in relation to farms or business operations, investment ventures, purchase of real property, and other disbursement that do not involve personal consumption, gifts, support, assistance or relief in goods and services rendered by the family from friends, relatives, and others. Value consumed from net share of crops, fruits, and vegetables produced or livestock raised by other households, family sustenance, and entrepreneurial activities are also considered as family expenditure. Total Income

The 2009 FIES registered a total of 18.45 million families. This reflected an increase of 6.0 percent from the 17.40 million families recorded in 2006. In 2009, Filipino families acquired a total income of PhP3.80 trillion, reflecting an increase of 26.5 percent compared to the PhP3.01 trillion earned in 2006. Adjusting for inflation, total family income in 2009 was worth PhP2.38 trillion at 2000 prices. (Refer to Table 16.1.)

National Capital Region (NCR) contributed approximately one fourth (PhP877 billion) of the total income in 2009. Combining NCR’s share with the income share of more than half (50.6%) of the country’s aggregate income for the year. All regions in Luzon accounted for 66.9 percent of the total income; Mindanao regions shared 16.7 percent, while the three regions in the Visayas contributed 16.4 percent. Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) had the least share among the regions with only 1.7 percent or PhP64 billion.

All regions exhibited increases in income in 2009. Growths ranged from 18.8 percent in Central Luzon to 44.7 percent in SOCCSKSARGEN. (See Table 16.4 for details.) Average Income

Average income was estimated at PhP206,000 in 2009, representing a 19.1 percent increase compared to the 2006 level of PhP173,000. Removing the effect of inflation, the average income in 2009 was valued at PhP129,000 at 2000 prices. The inflation-adjusted estimate showed an increase of 3.2 percent in average income. (See Table 16.6 for details.)

All regions exhibited increases in average income between 2006 and 2009 at current prices. NCR (PhP356,000), CALABARZON (PhP249,000), Central Luzon (PhP221,000), and the Cordillera Administrative Region or CAR (PhP219,000) posted estimates higher than the national average. The Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARRM) registered the lowest average income among the regions with only PhP113,000. This was, however, higher by 27 percent compared to its average income of PhP89,000 in 2006. (See Table 16.6 for details.)

Income Distribution Trend

There seemed to have less unequal income distribution in 2009. The 2009 Gini coefficient was recorded at 0.4484, slightly lower by -2.1 percent from 0.4580 in 2006.

Six regions registered increases in the Gini coefficient indicating a movement towards a widening income disparity among families. Cagayan Valley showed the biggest increment from 0.4216 in 2006 to 0.4425 in 2009. ARMM had the least income disparity with a Gini coefficient of 0.2948, which is even lower than its 2006 figure of 0.3113.

Over decades since 1961, there had been slight but encouraging changes in the structure of the country’s income distribution. Data in Table 16.8 show, however, that the bulk of the nation’s wealth still remains in the hands of few families in higher income groups.

1970s. The FIES generally showed encouraging results during this period. During the 1975 ICPEA, the lower 50 percent posted an all-time high-income share level in over three decades from 1965 to 1994. From 17.6 percent in 1971 FIES, it rose to 20.5 percent in 1975. Complementarily, the top 50 percent registered the lowest income share level at 79.5 percent over the same period. 1980s. Results of the 1985 FIES reflected a slight worsening in the economic situation. In 1985, the 0.2 percentage point lost by the lower 50 percent in the last 1975 ICPEA was absorbed by the upper half of income recipients. As can be gleaned from the 1985 and 1988 FIES data, the share of all income earners, except for the top 20 and top 10 percent of families, remained the same. 1990s. The mid-nineties saw slight reductions in income gaps among families in the country. Between 1991 and 1994, the share of families in the top 10, 20, and 50 percent showed an average reduction of 1.7 percentage points. The lower half, on the other hand, increased by an average of 0.4 percentage point. In 1997, this trend was completely reversed as the top 50 percent bounced back with an average increase of 1.96 percentage points, while the lower half’s share slumped by 0.9 percentage point on the average. 2000s. During the first half of the decade, all deciles, except the tenth decile, posted increases in percentage share to total income. In 2009, however, all deciles registered higher share in total income as compared to the 2006 figures. (See Table 16.8.) 16.3 Family Expenditure

Family expenditure refers to expenses or disbursements made by the family mainly for personal consumption in a given calendar year. These include gifts; support, assistance or relief in goods and services received by the family from friends, relatives, and others; as well as value consumed from net share of crops,


fruits, and vegetables produced, or livestock raised by other households; family sustenance; and other entrepreneurial activities.

Excluded are all expenses in relation to farm or business operations, investment ventures, purchase of real property, and other disbursements that do not involve personal consumption. Total Expenditure

Total family expenditure reached PhP3.24 trillion in 2009. This was 2.7 percent higher than the PhP2.56 trillion spent in 2006. Adjusting for inflation, the total family expenditure for 2009 was valued at PhP2.02 trillion at 2000 prices. By region, the NCR had the biggest share to total family expenditure (PhP485 billion or 24.0 percent), while ARMM posted the least (PhP31 billion or 1.5 percent). (See Tables 16.2 and 16.3 for details.) Average Expenditure

Average expenditure increased by 19.7 percent from PhP147,000 in 2006 to PhP176,000 in 2009. The average expenditure in 2009 was worth only PhP110,000 at 2000 prices when inflationary effect was removed. The inflation adjusted estimates showed a 2.80 percent decline in average expenditure. Family Expenditure Pattern

Results of the 2009 FIES revealed that the share of family expenditure on food items goes up, indicating a change in the spending pattern of families. In 2009, the share of food expenditure to total expenditure was 42.6 percent or 1.2 percentage points higher than its 41.4 percentage share in 2006.

Decreases in expenditure were also noted in tobacco, fuel, light and water, transportation and communication, household operations, clothing, footwear and other wear, recreation, special family occasions and other expenditures.

Meanwhile, families spent more on food as this expenditure moved up from 41.4 percent in 2006 to 42.6 percent in 2009. Increases in expenditure were likewise noted in personal care products, taxes, house rental and rent value, house maintenance and house repairs. (Refer to Table 16.10.) 16.4 Family Saving

Saving is derived by getting the difference between income and expenditure. Average saving was measured in 2009 at PhP31,000, up by 19.2 percent from PhP26,000 in 2006. In real terms, this average saving was equivalent to PhP19,000 at 2000 prices. In 2009, families in all regions, on the average, earned more than they spent. Families in NCR recorded the biggest average saving of PhP47,000 while those in Bicol Region and ARMM saved the least with PhP15,000 each. (See Table 16.6.)

Income and Prices

By income decile, the last three deciles registered increases in savings with the tenth decile recording the biggest leap of 26.2 percent from a total savings of PhP282 billion in 2006 to PhP356 billion in 2009. On the other hand, dissaving was observed in the first three deciles. 16.5 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey

In years when the Family Income and Expenditure Survey is not taken, the National Statistics Office undertakes the Annual Poverty Indicators Survey (APIS), a survey designed to provide access and impact indicators that can be used as inputs to the development of an integrated poverty indicator and monitoring system for the assessment of government programs on poverty alleviation and for the use of policymakers and planners. The 2007 APIS is already the fifth in a series. A total of 40,239 sample households were interviewed.

The Minimum Basic Needs (MBN) is the minimum criteria for attaining a decent quality of life, which are the basic needs of a Filipino family for survival, security and empowerment (enabling). Survival needs are the biophysical requirements of the family and the individual to assure life sustenance such as health, food and nutrition, clothing and safe water and sanitation. Security needs are the requirements to protect the family from physical harm such as shelter, peace and order/public safety, and income/livelihood. Empowerment or enabling needs refer to the requirements that facilitate the attainment of survival and protection needs namely basic education and functional literacy, participation in community development, and family and psychosocial care.

For purposes of reporting, families were grouped into two income strata: the lowest 30 percent and the higher 70 percent. The lowest 30 percent refers to the bottom 30 percent of the total families in the per capita income distribution arranged in descending order. These families represent those considered as poor. On the other hand, the higher 70 percent refers to the upper 70 percent of the total families in the per capita income distribution. These families are considered as non-poor. Highlights of 2010 APIS Results Access to safe drinking water. The percentage of families with access to safe drinking water slightly improved to 84.8 percent in 2010 from 84.1 percent in 2008. The proportion is, as expected, lower for those belonging to the lowest 30 percent income group with seven out of 10 families using clean and safe water, compared to families belonging to highest 70 percent income group. (Refer to Table 16.11.) Access to toilet facilitites. Families with sanitary toilets increased by 3.5 percent from 89.0 in 2008 to 92.5 in 2010. The proportion of families with sanitary toilets was higher in the highest 70 percent income families than in the lowest 30 percent income group. Among the regions, ARMM has 26.5 percent of families without sanitary toilets followed by Central Visayas (16%). (Refer to Table 16.12.) Access to electricity. Of the 18.8 million families in 2010, 87.4 percent families had electricity in their homes. About 95.4 percent of families in the upper 70 percent


income stratum had electricity in their homes compared to 68.7 percent in the bottom 30 percent income stratum. Except for NCR and ARMM, proportions of families with electricity in their homes remarkably differ between the two income strata. (Refer to Table 16.11.) Housing. In 2010, majority of Filipino houses had strong roofs and outer walls. Approximately 79.8 percent of families had strong roofs and about 68.8 percent had strong outer walls. As expected, a larger proportion of families in the highest 70 percent income stratum were living in houses with strong roofs (87.5%) and outer walls (79.2%) compared to families in the lowest 30 percent income stratum (61.8 percent and 44.4 percent, respectively). Among the regions, CAR recorded the highest percentage of families living in houses with strong roofs and outer walls (93.8% and 88.5%, respectively). On the other hand, ARMM had the lowest percentage of families living in the houses that used strong materials for their roofs and outer walls (50.8% and 41.8%, respectively). Refer to Tables 16.13 and 16.14.

In terms of tenure status, 68 percent of families in the country owned the house and lot they occupied. The remaining 32 percent occupied houses and lots under the following tenure; own house, rent free lot with consent of the owner (13.5%), rent house/room including lot (7.3%), rent-free house and lot with consent of owner (6.0%), own house, rent-free lot without consent of owner (2.8%), own house, rent lot (2.0%), or rent-free house and lot without consent of owner (less than one percent). (See Table 16.15.) Employment. Four out of five (82%) family heads were gainfully employed. Male heads had a higher rate of employment (88.5%) than female heads (57.9%). Family heads in the bottom 30% income stratum had a higher rate of employment (90%) compared to their counterpart in the upper 70% income stratum (78.5%). (Refer to Table 16.16.) Education. In 2010, a large percentage of family heads did not reach college. Three fourth of family heads were either elementary undergraduates (19.2%), elementary graduates (19.2%), high school undergraduates (11.3%), or high school graduates (22.2%). Only 2.6 percent had no grade completed. Heads of the families belonging to the bottom 30 percent income stratum tend to be less educated compared to heads of families in the upper 70 percent income stratum. Three out of ten (30%) family heads in the upper 70 percent income stratum had attended college or higher level of education. (Refer to Table 16.16.) House and/or lot ownership. In 2010, the percentage of families with at least one member who acquired any house and/or lot thru the assistance of government housing or financing program logged at 2.5 percent. Those families in the highest 70 percent income group exhibited a higher percentage (3.2%) than the lowest 30 percent income group (1.0%).

CALABARZON and NCR recorded the highest number of family members who acquired house and/or lot with 4.6 and 4.3 percent, respectively. (Refer to Table 16.17.)

Income and Prices

16.6 Prices

Prices, as stated in monetary terms, link all kinds of economic activities in a system of free private enterprise. Analyzing the price mechanism, hence, is essential in studying most economic problems.

Assuming that the value of money remains constant, the prices of individual commodities are analyzed on the basis of demand and supply. Changes in price levels, meanwhile, as directed by changes in the value of money or the purchasing power of the peso, are measured by price indices.

Price level changes are closely monitored because they are used to measure inflation. Inflation is an increase in the currency in circulation or a marked expansion of credit, resulting in a fall in currency value or diminished purchasing power of a nation’s money, and a sharp rise in the prices of goods and services. Price level changes alter the income and wealth distributions. They also affect the levels of income, output, and employment. Price Indices

Statistics on prices play an important role not only in the study and analysis of economic activities but also in the formulation of economic policies. The movements of prices, for example, are used as bases for redirecting fiscal and monetary policies, and trade and exchange rate policies. Price statistics are also used as bases to adjust contracts, wage rates, pensions, taxes, and a variety of other transaction flows. As mentioned, these changes are indicated by price indices.

Price indices are measures designed to show the relative changes in prices of a single commodity or group of commodities in relation to prices of a similar commodity or group of commodities in a designated base period and geographical area.

The available price statistics in the country include indices on consumer price, producer price, import and export prices, wholesale price, retail price, and stock price. The following discussion, however focuses only on the following measures of price changes: consumer price index (CPI), retail price index (RPI), wholesale price index (WPI), and producer’s price index (PPI).

Said indices are generated by the NSO and are computed in accordance with the estimation procedures, methodologies, and concepts recommended by the Interagency Committee on Price Statistics as approved by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB).

Terms and concepts. For clear interpretation of price indices, the following terms and concepts are herein defined: Retail price – the actual price at which retailers sell a commodity on the spot or at

earliest delivery, usually in small quantities for consumption, and not for resale. It is confined for transactions on cash basis in the free market and excludes prices in the black market and prices of commodities that are marked down. Retail prices of commodities used in the construction of the RPI and CPI are taken from retail stores and not from buyers or consumers.


Wholesale price – the actual transaction price imposed by wholesalers or distributors on the spot. It is the sum of the producer’s price, wholesale trade margin, tax markups, and distribution costs of the wholesaler.

With regard to imports, wholesale price is the sum of cost in freight, custom duties, arrester and wharf age fees, trade margins, costs of transporting the commodity from the port to the place of the importer or wholesaler, and distribution costs of the wholesaler. The wholesale price of export commodities is its freight-on-board price, which is the price received by the exporter.

Producer’s price – the price of the commodity that flows from producers to

wholesalers or other producers (usually called farm gate or ex-plant price). Market basket – a sample of goods and services used to represent all goods and

services produced (in the case of PPI), sold (WPI or RPI), or bought (CPI). Base period – the period, usually a year, at which the index number is set to zero. It

is the reference point of the index number series. Weights – values attached to a commodity or group of commodities to indicate the

relative importance of that commodity or group of commodities in the market basket.

Index calculation. In computing the CPI, RPI and WPI, the Laspeyres formula, with fixed base and weight, is used. That is,

where: IL = Laspeyre's index number for period t Pt = price of commodity in period t Po = price of commodity in base period Qo = quantity of commodity in base period

The PPI, however, uses the Paasche method; the weights are continuously revised upon availability of the latest data from the Census/Annual Survey of Establishments (CE/ASE). The revision of the weights should, however, be instituted only at the beginning of each year. The weights used are for the entire year.

The consumer price index is a general measure of the changes in the average retail prices of a market basket or collection of goods and services commonly purchased by the average Filipino household.

Historical background of the NSO's consumer price index series. The Bureau of the Census and Statistics (now NSO) was authorized by Commonwealth Act 591 to gather, among others, information on prices. On January 1, 1941, the responsibility of calculating the Cost of Living Index was transferred from the Labor Statistics Division of the Department of Labor to the Bureau.

In 1945, the Bureau constructed the Cost-of-Living Index for Manila with 1941 as the base year. Its market basket contained only 66 commodities representing goods and services commonly purchased by low-income families, or the families living within the minimum level of subsistence. This series lasted for 18 years until 1963. 1. THE 1964 REBASING. The first revision of the Cost-of-Living Index in Manila was

made in 1964, with the average of prices from 1960 to 1962 as the base price. The weights were based on the results of the 1961 Survey of Incomes and Expenditures. It was then known as the CPI for Low-Income Families in Manila, or for families with annual income of not more than PhP2, 400. This time, 244 items were included in the market basket.

2. THE 1965 REBASING. The base year was changed to 1961 and the series covered Metro Manila only.

3. THE 1970 REBASING. More alterations were done in the CPI in 1970. The base year, for instance, was shifted from 1961 to 1966. The 1966-based CPI was computed for various income groups: low-, middle-, high- and all-income groups. Coverage was extended to all provinces. For Manila and the suburbs, the CPI for high-income group was computed. The market basket diversified with 249 items for low-

income, 368 for middle-income, 242 for high-income, and 479 for all-income groups.

4. THE 1976 REBASING. The next rebasing was done in 1976 when the 1966-based CPI became less meaningful and less relevant to the existing conditions. Unlike the previous index series, the 1972-based CPI was constructed solely for all-income households and covered all provinces and regions, including the NCR.

5. THE 1982 REBASING. The reference period of the index was shifted anew to the recent base year of 1978. The series, which covered all-income households, was computed for the Philippines, by region and by province. A separate CPI was produced for the NCR or the Metro Manila Area. A technical committee (the Interagency Committee on Prices) determined the market basket that contained a total of 407 items. The weights were based on the 1975 FIES adjusted to 1978 prices.

6. THE 1992 REBASING. The CPI was rebased again from 1978 to 1988. The new series featured the use of 13 separate regional market baskets and a new set of weights at the provincial level. The composition of the market basket was determined through the 1985 Commodity and Outlet Survey (COS), which aimed to identify the commodities that a household consumed with regularity and the outlets where these commodities were commonly purchased. The weights attached to these commodities were likewise updated to reflect the household expenditure patterns in 1988.

7. THE 1996 REBASING. In accordance with NSCB Resolution 6 Series of 1994, which requires all indices to have a synchronized base period, the CPI was rebased to 1994. The year 1994 was chosen by the Technical Committee on Price Statistics (TCPS), since, relative to other years, it was perceived as more stable politically, economically, and socially. This was also the year when the FIES, the usual source of weights and basis of drawing up sample households for the COS, was conducted.

Each province or special city of the country was considered a domain so that weights were computed up to the provincial or special city level.

The market basket used in the construction of the 1994-based CPI was drawn from the results of the updating activity done in 1995 where the 1988-based commodities were validated according to their availability and saleability in the area, and the results of the 1994 COS in which the specific items consumed or availed of by the households were ranked and the top items on the list or modal items were selected for inclusion in the market basket. A province or special city was also considered a domain so that market baskets were constructed in a provincial or special city level. Table 16.20 shows the number of commodities in the CPI market basket, by province and special city.

In the process of gathering price data for the CPI computations, the NSO is assisted by the Bureau of Agricultural Statistics (BAS). The BAS is responsible for collecting price data for agricultural commodities in Metro Manila and in provincial capitals where they have offices. The NSO, on the other hand, collects

Income and Prices

price data for nonagricultural commodities throughout the country and all commodities in areas not covered by BAS.

8. THE 2000 REBASING. Updating of the market basket from 1994 to 2000 was done by

interviewing key informants in various outlets as to the availability and saleability of items they sell. Like in the previous rebasing, the year 2000 was chosen as the base year, since relative to other years, it was perceived as more stable politically, economically, and socially. It was also a year when FIES, the usual basis for computation of weights, was conducted. The CPI series with 2000 as base year features the use of separate provincial and city market baskets. A new set of weights was likewise computed at the provincial and city levels using the expenditure data from the 2000 FIES as basis.

Refer to Table 16.18 for the number of items comprising the market basket by province and special city.

Important Indicators Derived from the CPI Inflation rate - the rate of change in the average price level between two periods (year-on-year or month-on-month) as measured by the CPI. The usual measure of inflation rate is year-on-year, that is

Where: CPIn = current month's CPI CPIo = same month of last year's CPI Purchasing power of the peso - shows how much the peso in the base period is worth in another period. It gives an indication of the real value of the peso in a given period, relative to the peso value in the base period. That is, Purchasing power of the peso = x 100 National summary. In 2010, the national average inflation rate in the Philippines was at 3.8 for all items, higher compared to the previous year’s 3.2. The highest inflation rate during the year was reported in April at 4.5 and lowest in October at 2.7.

Annual average CPI was computed at 166.1 for the Philippines. This was higher than the previous year’s index of 160.0. The highest CPI during the year was recorded in December at 168.5 and lowest in January at 163.9.

Meanwhile, the purchasing power of the peso decreased from 0.63 in 2009 to 0.60 in 2010. The least purchasing power was recorded in December at 0.59. (Refer to Table 16.20.)

Regional inflation, price indices and purchasing power. Annual price changes in 2010 for all regions were generally higher than the 2009 rates. Among regions, the highest CPI was recorded in ARMM (191.2) while the lowest was in MIMAROPA (162.5).

The highest inflation rate was marked in ARMM (6.0) and the lowest rate in Ilocos Region (2.5).

Among regions, MIMAROPA had the highest purchasing power of the peso with 0.62, while ARMM with 0.52 had the lowest rate. See Table 16.21 for the details. Commodity groups. Inflation rate for all commodity groups in 2010 generally decreased compared with the records in previous year. All other commodity group indexes went down except fuel, light and water (from -2.6 to 13.4) and services (from -0.2 to 4.5). Items with the highest inflation rate recorded in 2010 are fuel, light and water (13.4), followed by services (4.5), and food, beverage and tobacco (3.0). See Table 16.19 for the details.

Consumer price index for all commodity groups in 2010 generally increased compared with the previous year. The highest CPI was that of fuel, light, and water (214.1), followed by services (188.0) and food, beverages, and tobacco (166.1). See Table 16.22 for the details. All income households in NCR and AONCR. In 2010, CPI in NCR was higher at 163.1 for all items compared to previous year’s 156.9. The highest index rate during the year was in December at 165.5 and lowest in January at 160.2.

In Areas Outside National Capital Region (AONCR), CPI was recorded at 167.3. This is six points higher compared to 2009. The highest index rate was also in December (169.7) and the lowest in January (165.5). See Tables 16.23 and 16.24 for the details. The Retail Price Index (RPI)

The retail price index (RPI) is a measure of the changes in the retail prices at which retailers dispose their goods to the consumers or end users. There are two categories of the RPI: the General Retail Price Index (GRPI) and the Construction Materials Retail Price Index (CMRPI). Background. The RPI was developed by the Statistical Coordination Office (now NSCB) of the National Economic and Development Authority, and was computed by the Economic Research Department of the then Central Bank of the Philippines (ERDCBP), now Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, with 1972 as the base year. In January 1981, however, the task of computing was handed over to the NSO using 1978 as base year.

The current RPI still uses 1978 as base year and covers only the National Capital Region or Metro Manila. While the 1972-based RPI was computed using the geometric mean without any weighting pattern, the present series is constructed using the weights based on the 1974 Input-Output Tables of the NSO. These tables show the values of expenditures of goods and services of consumers from the retail

Income and Prices

sector, estimated at 1978 prices. The weighted average of relatives method, basically the Laspeyre's formula, is used in the computation of the index.

The GRPI market basket has 479 commodities while the CMRPI basket contains 117 commodities. The Philippine Standard Community Classification (PSCC) serves as basis in grouping the commodities in both baskets. The retail price index (RPI) in 2010. The average retail price index for NCR in 2010 was 147.3 reflecting an increase of 4.5 percent relative to its previous year’s average of 142.8. By commodity group, the highest index recorded was 251.5 in mineral fuels, lubricants and related materials and the lowest (130.9) in machinery and transport equipment.

In 2010, the average retail price index of construction materials in NCR based on 2000 prices was 159.8. Miscellaneous construction materials showed highest index with 260.3. The lowest index, 133.0, on the other hand, was observed in tinsmithry materials. (Refer to Table 16.25 and 16.26.) The Wholesale Price Index

The wholesale price index (WPI) measures the monthly changes in the general price level of commodities that flow into the wholesale trade intermediaries. There are two categories of the WPI: the General Wholesale Price Index (GWPI) and the Construction Materials Wholesale Price Index (CMWPI).

The current CMWPI series has 1985 as the base year and covers Metro Manila only. There are a total of 115 commodities in the market basket grouped into 25 major categories. The wholesale price index in 2010. Average WPI in the Philippines went up to 202.9 percent in 2010 from 191.6 percent in 2009. Food, beverages and tobacco, chemicals, manufactured goods, miscellaneous and crude materials, minerals fuels and machinery noticed an increase in the wholesale price index. (See Table 16.27.)

Table 16.28 shows the WPI of selected construction materials in Metro Manila with 1985 as the base year. Wholesale price indexes of selected construction materials such as sand, stone and gravel; cement; lumber; glass and glass products; galvanized iron sheets; and plywood demonstrated an ascending trend while tileworks showed a decrease of -1.2 percent. (See Table 16.28 for details) The Producer’s Price Index

The Producer’s Price Index (PPI) is a composite measure of producer prices of key commodities in the manufacturing sector. It aims to measure monthly or yearly changes in producer’s prices (ex-plant) of key commodities. It is used as deflator of production indicators such as the Value of Production Index (VaPI) used to estimate the Volume of Production Index (VoPI), and national accounts estimates of production in the manufacturing sector. Background. Studies on the generation of the Producer’s Price Index (PPI) started in 1980 when the Central Bank stopped preparing the Index of Physical Volume of


Production Series. The Central Bank had to transfer the operation and processing of the Monthly Survey of Establishments (MSE).

Work on the original PPI started with 1978 as the base year that was later revised to 1985. Since it was felt that the components of the PPI were no longer reflective of the prevailing production structure of the manufacturing sector, the PPI operations were halted.

From 1992 to 1993, the NSO and the NSCB made studies for improvements in the PPI system to make it more adaptable to the actual situation of the industry. The weights used for the computation of the 1996 PPI were based on data from the 1993 Annual Survey of Establishments (ASE) on Value of Products Sold for all manufacturing establishments. The year 1992 was selected as the base year for which the average monthly producer's prices of commodities were based. The conduct of the Producer Price Survey started as the source of data for the PPI.

Starting with the new base year, the PPI was released simultaneous with the Survey on Key Establishments in Manufacturing (SKEM). (The SKEM was later renamed Monthly Integrated Survey of Selected Indicators or MISSI.) The 1992-based series continued on until December 2001 and discontinued the year after. In 2001 NSO released the series of PPI with 1994 as the base year. The 1994-based series had January 1998 as its earliest series.

Work on the rebasing of PPI to base year 2000 started in 2005. The 2000-based series was released in August 2007 parallel with the 1994-based series. January 2001 was the earliest series of 2000-based PPI data. On the other hand, the 1994-based PPI data series was discontinued beginning January 2008. The producer price index in 2010. The average annual Producer Price Index (PPI) for total manufacturing stood at 164.2 percent in 2010, posting an annual decrease of -5.0 percent from the previous year’s record.
