Chain Weighting
Then take the average of the two growth rates and this is the
chain-weighted growth rate. This can be used to compute a
real chained-weighted GDP.

Implications
Australian CPI
• Published quarterly by ABS
• Household Expenditure Survey used to determine typical
basket (known as weights)
• (Historically) Base year weights changed every 5 years
• From end-2017 weights are updated on an annual basis

Limitations with CPI
Quality Adjustment and New Goods Bias
• Quality improvements may show up as higher prices
for goods and services
• New goods are often not included until CPI is re-
based
Substitution Bias
• Use of a fixed basket means that no allowance is
made for consumers’ substitution toward relatively
less expensive goods.
62
Costs of Inflation
Important to distinguish between relative price change
and a change in the general price level.
Unexpected Inflation:
63
Costs of Inflation
• Shoe-leather costs
• inflation reduces the real purchasing power of a
given amount of money
• requires more frequent “trips to bank”
• Menu costs
• any real cost associated with changing prices
