| Summary: |
The National System of Consumer Price Indexes - SNIPC continuously and systematically produces consumer price indexes, having as collection units commercial and service-offering establishments, public service concessionaries and households (for the surveying of rent and condominium fees). The data collection period of INPC and IPCA goes mainly from day 01 until day 30 of the month of reference. The survey was started in January 1995, only in the Metropolitan Area of Rio de Janeiro, producing indicators for the real and nominal revenues, employed persons and wages and other compensations. Having started in 1997, the survey was expanded to the Metropolitan Areas of Recife and Salvador. The version of the survey with national coverage was started in 2000, producing volume and nominal indicators subdivided into five groups of activities, for Brazil and the states of Ceará, Pernambuco, Bahia, Minas Gerais, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul, Goiás and Federal District. Retail trade indicators for the remaining units of the federation are made available without subdivision. |
