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 13 months (Jan 2022 – Jan 2023). Over those months the ratio between them runs from 0.771 to 0.789; the splice uses 0.779. Compared with LK.CPI.CCPI.2013.HEADLINE.M.

    Splice overlap: 0.771 and 0.789, difference 0.017.

    13 overlapping months 2022-01-01..2023-01-01, factor 0.778948

    Every splice reports the spread of its overlapping-month ratios so the chain factor can be judged. A few per cent is normal.
