Roy H. Webb and Rob Willemse

Economic Review, 1989, vol. 75, issue Jul, 22-32

Abstract: Price Indexes allow one to compare the average levels of prices at different times. Despite their widespread use, price indexes do not answer all questions as well as analysts might wish. Macroeconomic Price Indexes is a guide for users of major price indexes. It provides details about several price indexes to help users intelligently decide what they can learn by using particular indexes.
