Math calculations t® better utilize CPI data
Report prepared by Gerald Perrin, regional economist in the Mid -Atlantic Information Office,
and Diane Nilsen, regional clearance officer in the National Office of Field Operations, Bureau
of Labor Statistics.
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is published
as an index number that shows the change in
the price of a defined market basket of goods
and services over time from a base period
which is defined as 100.0. An increase of 7
percent from that base period, for example, is
shown as 107.0. Alternately, that relationship
can also be expressed as the price of a base
period "market basket" of goods and services
rising from $100 to $107. Currently, the
reference base for most CPI indexes is 1982-
84=100 but some indexes have other
references bases. The reference base years
refer to the period in which the index is set to
100.0. In addition, expenditure weights are
updated every two years to keep the CPI
current with changing consumer preferences.
Index numbers are not dollar values, but
measures of the change over time relative to
their base period value of 100.0 (for example,
280.0 or 30.3). Index numbers also are
commonly used to measure the size and
direction of price movements between various
time periods such as monthly, quarterly, semi-
annual, and annual percent changes.
Effective with the January 2007 CPI, the
Bureau of Labor Statistics began to publish its
consumer price indexes rounded to three
decimal places rather than one. As a result,
all percent changes in this document have
been calculated from three decimal place
indexes regardless of date. However, the
resulting percent changes will continue to be
published to one decimal place. Note: using
three decimal place values to compute percent
changes eliminates nearly all rounding errors
in the resulting percent change that
occasionally occurred when using indexes
rounded to one decimal place. Additional
information on this conversion can be found
at www.bls.gov/cpi/Mithreedec.htm.
What follows are mathematical concepts and
formulae that are useful in a variety of index
applications.
Percent change
Movements of an index from one month to
another are usually expressed as percent
changes rather than as changes in index
points, because index point changes are
affected by the level of the index in relation to
its base period, while percent changes are not.
The following illustration shows a
hypothetical CPI one -month change between
November 2007 and December 2007 using
the 1982-84=100 reference base.
Reference Base
1982-84=100
December 2007 ...............................
210.036
November 2007 .............................. 210.177
Index point change..............................0.141
Divided by the earlier index .--0.141/210.177
Equals................................................
-0.00067
Multiplied by 100...............................0.067
Equals percent change ........................0.1
Over -the -year percent change
To arrive at a percent change over an entire
year, the beginning and ending periods of a
CPI series must always be the same month,
such as December 2006 and December 2007.
Note: A calculation using January and
December data would result in an-- 11-month
change, not a 12-month/over-the-year change.
The calculation below shows the over -the -
year change from December 2006 to
December 2007 for both the 1982-84=100
and 1967=100 reference bases. The percent
change is rounded:
Reference Base
1982-84=100, 1967=100

Equals
0.04081
0.04082
Multiplied by 100
4.081
4.082
Equals percent change 4.1 4.1
There are two critical points to remember:
1. Always use the same reference base period
for all calculations. If the first point uses the
1982-84=100 base, the end point must also
use that base.
2. Calculating an over -the -year percent
change, such as December 2006 to December
2007, is not equal to the sum of the over -the -
month changes between those two time
periods.
Annual averages
Annual averages are the sum of the 12
monthly data points (i.e. indexes), divided by
12. They represent an average index for a
given year, not a particular month. An annual
average change should not be confused with
the over the year percent change, such as the
calculation of the December to December
changes mentioned above.
The percent change from December 2006 to
December 2007 is unlikely to be the same as
the change in the annual average from 2006 to
2007. Users should take care to examine the
data with which the CPI is being compared to
determine whether the annual average or 12-
month change is more appropriate for their
purposes.
In addition, users should note that, for an All -
items CPI that is published every other
month, the annual average is based on 12
months of data. Many food and energy prices
are collected for the "off' months, and the
unpublished "off -cycle" indexes are
interpolated and used in the annual average.
Most All -item CPIs for metropolitan areas are
published every other month.
Purchasing power
The CPI can be used to show how the
purchasing power of a dollar changes over
time.
The purchasing power of a dollar in 2007 was
about 97 percent of the purchasing power of a
dollar in 2006. This can be calculated as
follows:
201.6/207.342 X 100 = 97.2%
with 201.6 being the CPI annual average
index for 2006, and 207.342 being the 2007
annual average index. This means that the
purchasing power of the dollar declined about
3 percent between 2006 and 2007 because of
inflation. Or stated another way, a dollar in
2007 could only buy 97 percent of what it
could buy, on average, in 2006. An automatic
"CPI Inflation CaIcuIator" is available online
for annual comparisons of purchasing power
at www.bls.g_ov/data/inflation calculator.htm.
Similarly, one can calculate equivalent dollar
amounts for any two months in different years
using a ratio of those monthly indexes. For
example, to determine how much money one
would need in December 2007 to have the
same spending power as $500 in December
2006, multiply the dollar amount by the ratio
of the indexes for December 2007 and
December 2006:
Dec. 2007=210.036 x $500
Dec. 2006=201.8
or, 1.04081 x $500 7 $520.41
This means that a basket of goods costing
$500 in December 2006 would cost $520.41
in December 2007.
Constant dollars
For analysis involving long time periods, it is
frequently necessary to convert current or
nominal dollars into constant or real dollars.
This is done by multiplying each dollar
amount by a ratio of price indexes, as shown
below.
Suppose one's salary was $25,000 in 1995,
$30,000 in 2000, and $35,000 in 2005. The
All items CPI was 152.4 in 1995, 172.2 in
2000, and 195.3 in 2005.. The conversion to
constant 1995 dollars would be as follows:
1995: (152.4/152.4) x $25,000 = $25,000
2000: (152.4/112.2) x $30,000 = $26,551
2005: (152.4/195.3) x $35,000 = $27,312
To convert the same data to constant 2005
dollars, use 2005 as the base:
1995: (1953/152.4) x $25,000 = $32,037
2000: (195.3/172.2) x $30,000 = $34,024
2005: (195.3/195.3) x $35,000 = $35,000
In this example, while one's nominal salary rose
from $25,000 to $35,000 from .1995 to 2005, an
increase of 40 percent, the growth in real salary,
after adjusting for inflation, was more modest,
slightly less than 10 percent.
Conversion to other lase periods
It is sometimes necessary to use index values
on a reference base that is no longer
published, In these instances, the Bureau
provides rebasing factors.
A situation that requires such action could be
a long-term contract requiring the use of
1957-59=100 as the base period where the
parties cannot agree to a successor index.
This often occurs when index points rather
than percent change are the basis for
escalation. In such a case, contact the. BLS
for the specific rebasing factor needed for the
computation.
Rebasing factors are unique to their index
series and can not be substituted. Once
calculated, the rebasing factor to move a
specific index from a specific base year to
another specific base year will not change.
To convert the December 2006 (1982-
84=100) CPI-U All items index to the 1957-
59=100 base, use the rebasing factor of
0.2870447. Divide the current index by the
rebasing factor to calculate the index on a
1957-59 basis.
Example:
All items, CPI-U, December 2006,
1982-84=100 201.8
Rebasing factor 0.2870447
Dec. 2006 / Rebasing factor ......... 703.0
All items, CPI-U, December 2006,
Rebased 1957-59=100 . 703.0
When new base years are introduced, BLS
recalculates each index back to the beginning
of that series to provide a consistent stream of
data. Using the official series will minimize
rounding differences occasionally caused by
the rebasing factors. To move from a
discontinued index to a current index, the
easiest method is to request a historical table
from any BLS office.
Constructing special CPI indexes and their
percent change
The Bureau calculates thousands of special
indexes that are available online or from
either the National CPI Information Office or
the eight Regional Economic Analysis and
Information (EA&I) Offices. Examples
include All items less food and energy, All
items less energy, and All items less food.
Occasionally, a user needs to estimate a price
change that is not published by BLS. For
instance, suppose a user needs a CPI measure
that includes everything except gasoline. This
can be done by estimating a special index, in
this case, All items less gasoline. Just
remember, this estimate will not be an official
CPI, though it can be used to estimate
changes in prices for item categories not
published by the Bureau.
When creating a special index, the relative
importance . of published indexes is a key
component. To reflect the differences in the
average amount of the various items
purchased, weights are assigned to each item.
As the prices of the individual items change,
the relative weight of each item is reported in
values known as relative importance. The
relative importance for each published index
component is available for December of each
year.
The first step in making a special index is to
calculate an adjusted relative importance for
the component being removed from All items,
in this case Gasoline. Multiply the published
December relative importance of the
component index by the index value for the
month of interest. Then divide that amount
by the component's index for the same month
and year as the relative importance.
For example, using the December 2007
relative importance data and the December
2007 and February 2008 CPI-U Gasoline
component indexes for the U.S. city average
(1982-84=100):
Relative importance, Gasoline,
December 2007....................................... 5.215
Index for Gasoline
December 2007 ...................... 256.790
February 2008 ........................ 257.845
(Rel. imp.) 5.215 x (Feb. 2008 = 257.845
(Dec. 2007) = 256.790
or, 5.215 x 1,004109 = 5.2364
Do the same calculation using the same
periods for the other index, in this case All
items. The All items adjusted relative
importance result is 100.7889, where the
original relative importance was 100 and the
index rose from 210.036 (December 2007) to
211.693 (February 2008).
Next, calculate the base relative importance
of the All items less gasoline index. Do this
by subtracting the original relative importance
of gasoline from the original relative
importance of the All items index.
December 2007:
Relative importance, All items,
December 2007 ........................ 100.0
Less relative importance,
Gasoline, December 2007 .......... - 5.2150
Relative importance, All items
less gasoline, December 2007 .... 94.7850
Then do the same with the adjusted relative
importances for the second month:
February 2008:
Relative importance, All items,
February 2009 .......................... 100.7889
Less relative importance,
Gasoline, February 2009 ............ - 5.2364
Relative importance, All items
less gasoline, February 2009...... 95.5525
Finally, calculate the percent change between
the results for the two months:
(Rel. imp. Feb. 2008)( 95.5525) 100 - 100 =
(Rel. imp. Dec. 2007)(94.7950)
1,00909 x 100 100 = 0,909 = 0.9%
In short, one could estimate that prices for All
items less gasoline rose 0.8 percent from
December 2007 to February 2008. As before, this
is an estimate and does not represent an official
BLS index.
In short, the relative importance of a
component is its expenditure or, value weight,
expressed as a percentage of All items within
an area. These ratios represent an estimate of
how consumers would distribute their
expenditures over time.
Relative importance ratios cannot, however,
be used as estimates of current spending
patterns or as indicators of changing
consumer expenditures in the intervals
between weight revisions, - because
consumption patterns are influenced by
factors other than price change. These factors
include income, variations in climate, family
size, and the availability of new and different
kinds of goods and services.
Discontinued indexes and publication
changes
There will be occasions where, especially.for
longer -term contracts, a specified index may
not be precisely available for the duration of
the contract. An example of such an
occurrence is the index for Washington, D.C.-
Md.-Va., which is now part of the larger
Washington -Baltimore, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va.,
metropolitan area. It is not possible to
directly calculate a five-year change starting
in 1995 and ending in 2000 since publication
of Washington data only stopped in 1997. In
its place, data for the Washington -Baltimore
consolidated area has been published since
1998.
In a case where both parties have agreed upon
an index to replace -the discontinued (original)
one, the calculation can be performed in two
steps. First, for the series of interest, calculate
the percent change from the beginning period
month and year until an agreed upon month
and year where data exist for both the
discontinued and the successor (new) series.
Adjust the dollar value in the contract based
upon this percent change. The dollar value
should be the amount estimated to start on, or
closest to, the month and year chosen for the
beginning index.
Second, choose the end -period month and
year for the new successor series. The month
and year you defined as the previous step's
end period will now become the first period
month and year in this step. Calculate the
percent change from this beginning period to
the selected end period of the new series. Use
the calculated percent change to adjust the
contract dollar value from the first step. This
is the contract's new dollar amount adjusted
for the overlap between the discontinued and
successor indexes.
In the following example, Index A is now
discontinued and the parties have agreed to
use Index B as the successor index.
Value of contract in January 1995 ..........$9,000.00
Index A
January 1995.................................... 158.7
January 1998.................................... 178.9
Percent change ................................... 12.7
9,000 x (1+ 0.127) ......................10,143.00
Value of contract in January 1998
after adjustment of 1995 amount .......$10,143,00
Index B
January 1998.................................... 104.7
January 2000.................................... 110.9
Percent change ..................................... 5.9
10,143 x(1+0.059).....................10,741.44
Value of contract in January 2000
after adjustment of 1998 amount .......$10,741.44
Approximating missing data points
Many indexes are published every other
month. BLS publishes CPI information for
All items and for major components (Food
and beverages, Housing, Apparel,
Transportation, Medical care, Recreation,
Education and communication, and Other
goods and services) for 11 metropolitan areas
on a bimonthly basis. Some of these
metropolitan .areas, as defined by the U.S.
Census Bureau, include suburbs or counties
that extend across state boundaries. These 11
bimonthly metropolitan areas are available on
the following schedule: Boston -Brockton -
Nashua, Mass.-N.H.-Maine-Conn.;
Cleveland -Akron, Ohio; Dallas -Fort Worth,
Texas; and Washington -Baltimore, D.C.-Md.-
Va.-W.Va.; in odd months (January, March,
etc.) and Atlanta, Ga.; Detroit -Ann Arbor -
Flint, Mich.; Houston-Galveston-Brazoria,
Texas; Miami -Fort Lauderdale, Fla.;
Philadelphia -Wilmington -Atlantic City, Pa.-
N.J.-Del.-Md.; San Francisco -Oakland -San
Jose, Calif.; and Seattle -Tacoma -Bremerton,
Wash.; in even months (February, April, etc.).
In a few instances, this is a change from prior
years and a contract might call for a specific
month which is no longer available. If both
parties agree, the missing data point can be
approximated using the month immediately
before and immediately after the missing
month.
For example, to approximate the June 2007
All items (CPI-U) index for the Washington -
Baltimore, D. C.-Md.-Va. -W.Va. metropolitan
area, multiply the May index by the July
index and take the square root of the product:
May 2007 .................. 132.982
July 2007................... 134.442
Product ................. 17,878.366
Square root ................ 133.710
Note: data calculated in this way cannot be
interpreted as official CPI indexes, as the
calculation is based on two data points and
not on CPI's aggregation method
Furthermore, if bimonthly CPI data are
volatile, then less confidence should be placed
in estimates for the missing months. Percent
changes based on approximated data should
also be considered as unofficial estimates.
Examples of volatile series would be apparel,
household furnishings and operations, and
fuels and utilities.
Cost of living comparisons not appropriate
Each CPI index represents the change in
inflation for a good or service in the market
basket over time for various areas and the
nation. However, CPI indexes for one
metropolitan area can not be compared with
those in other areas to determine where it is
more or less expensive to live. It is still
possible to calculate the percentage change,
that is, how fast or slow prices are rising in a
given metropolitan area, but that can not be
equated to higher or lower actual costs, as the
next example illustrates.
Bread was priced in City A and City B.
City A City B
Price of bread in:
September2005 $1.00 $0.50
September 2006 1.50 1.00
Index values (Sep. 2005=100):

Which index should you use?
The CPI program publishes data for the U.S.,
geographic regions, and many metropolitan
areas. For each of these, data are available for
"All items" as well as for a variety of the
components that are aggregated together to
become the "All items" index.
Each of these many series are published for
two population groups: All Urban Consumers
(CPI-U) and Urban Wage Earners and
Clerical Workers (CPI-W). When using the
CPI for calculating price change, you must
specify one population group or the other
since the index values for the two groups will
not be the same.
Contracting parties are free to determine what
indexes they wish to use, but it is important to
note that while the CPI is used for a variety of
purposes, it measures only the change in the
price of a representative market basket of
consumer goods and services. At the All
items and individual component levels, only
items that would be purchased by consumers
are eligible for pricing. Thus, an item like
commercial rent would not be included in the
"rent of primary residence" category.
Although BLS cannot make a decision as to
which index a user should reference, it has
published a reference guide, "Using the
Consumer Price Index for Escalation,"
available at www.bls.gov/cpi/Mil998d.htm.
This publication and other information such
as frequently asked questions, historical data,
and rebasing factors are available through the

Item 20. - 1 HB -606-
REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: 8/6/2012 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PD 12-012
Analysis: Police -directed towing is any tow authorized by a law enforcement official,
such as an illegally parked vehicle or pursuant to an arrest of the driver. Consensual
towing is a tow which is authorized by the owner of the vehicle with a tow company of their
choice. A non-consensual tow, sometimes known as "private party impound," is any tow
initiated by a person other than the owner of the vehicle or a law enforcement official. For
example, a property owner can have a vehicle towed from an apartment complex where a
non-resident has parked in a designated resident -only parking area. A non-consensual tow
must be reported to the Police Department to ensure that the vehicle is not reported stolen
by the owner. This also gives the owner of the towed vehicle a means to determine where
their vehicle is located. The City regulates police -directed tow services.
The City of Huntington Beach currently has contracts with Mandic Motors, Inc., Metro Pro
Towing, Inc., and Best Towing and Transportation Service LLC for police directed towing
services.
The City Council approved the current Police -Directed Tow Services Contract on July 15,
2002. The agreement commenced on August 15, 2002. The term of agreement was a five
(5) year period with an option for a five (5) year extension. On August 16, 2007, the three
tow operators, as well as the City, agreed to extend the contract for a five (5) year period.
The City Council also adopted Resolution 2007-44, authorizing a one-time 10% increase of
rates, fees and charges. Every year following this change the fees have been adjusted
according to an increase or decrease in the Consumer Price Index. The current contracts
are due to expire on August 15, 2012.
The rates, fees and charges that tow operators can impose will continue to follow the
current schedule, which expires on November 30, 2012. Refer to the attached current fee
schedule for information on the fees. Any future rate increases or decreases will be in
accordance with the Police -Directed Tow Services Contract. It allows for an adjustment on
December Vt of each year based on any change in the Metropolitan Consumer Price Index
for the Los Angeles -Riverside -Orange County, CA area during the preceding year.
On May 1, 2012, the City released a Request for Qualifications, soliciting proposals from
qualified tow operators. The police department received a total of three proposals, which
were from the same tow operators currently under contract with the City. The proposals
from Mandic Motors, Inc., Metro Pro Towing, Inc., and Best Towing and Transportation
Service LLC were reviewed and evaluated by a committee made up of four Police
Department representatives.
On July 3, 2012, Code Enforcement Officers inspected the storage yards of Mandic Motors,
Inc., Metro Pro Towing, Inc., and Best Towing and Transportation Service LLC. Code
Enforcement found all three facilities are being used appropriately and no zoning code
violations were observed.
All three companies met the towing and storage requirements and were selected by the
review committee. All three companies satisfy the insurance requirements and have
current permits/licenses as required by state and/or City, including zoning, fire and building.

vehicle owners and operators. Tow Operator shall comply with such new or additional
requirements within a reasonable time after receipt of City's written request.

will conduct all defense at its sole cost and expense and City shall approve selection of
Tow Operator's counsel. City shall be reimbursed for all costs and attorney's fees

30. SUBCONTRACTING, DELEGATION AND ASSIGNMENT.
A. Tow Operator shall not delegate, or assign its duties or rights hereunder,
either in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the Chief of

35. CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
The parties agree that, to their knowledge, no member of the City Council, officer
or employee of the City has any interest, whether contractual, non -contractual, financial
or otherwise in this transaction, or in other business of the Tow Operator, and that if any
such interest comes to the knowledge of either party at any time, a full and complete
disclosure of all such information will be made in writing to the other party, even if such
interest would not be considered a conflict of interest under applicable laws. Tow
Operator covenants that it has, at the time of execution of this Agreement, no interest, and
that it shall not acquire any interest in the future, direct or indirect, which would conflict
in any manner with the performance of services required hereunder. Tow Operator

any such interest shall be engaged or employed.

appropriately as a vehicle storage yard. Code Enforcement did not observe
any zoning code violations.
