- Producer Price Index slightly decreases in June 2017
The Producer Price Index (PPI, 2000=100) for manufacturing dropped at a rate of 2.8 percent in June 2017 from negative 3.7 percent during the same period of previous year. This can be attributed to the significant decline of three major sectors namely; fabricated metal products, leather products and furniture and fixtures, which decreased by 50.9 percent, 19.4 percent and 15.2 percent, respectively. Refer to Tables 1 and A-1.
By month, PPI likewise went down by 0.5 percent from the previous month’s rate of negative 0.4 percent with fabricated metal products (-11.6%) dominating the decline along with other six major sectors. Meanwhile, eleven sectors posted increases while two sectors reflected flat growth. Refer to Tables 1 and A-2.

- Introduction
- Method of Index Computation
Starting with January 2017 PPI, a link factor was used to adjust weight effects and measure the correct price change. The weights are adjusted using the 2013 ASPBI.
- Industry Coverage
Starting with January 2013 reference month, the PPI utilizes the 2009 Philippine Standard Industrial Classification (PSIC) to classify sectors and industries. Selected industry classes of the 2009 PSIC were grouped to form the 20 industry groupings of the 2017 PPS. These are presented in the table below.
