Source discrepancies
What the warehouse found when it checked this series: the same figure from two agencies, splice overlaps, published rates against ones recalculated from the index, and outliers.
- For information
The two base years overlap for 41 months (Jan 2008 – May 2011). Over those months the ratio between them runs from 0.329 to 0.354; the splice uses 0.337. Compared with
LK.CPI.CCPI.2006-07.CORE.M.Splice overlap: 0.329 and 0.354, difference 0.025.
41 overlapping months 2008-01-01..2011-05-01, factor 0.336977
Every splice reports the spread of its overlapping-month ratios so the chain factor can be judged. A few per cent is normal.
