Producer Price Index (PPI) 2010=100, 2010:01–2013:12

Producer prices for manufactured products went down especially due to reductions in the prices of oil products, manufacturing of basic metals and chemicals and chemical products from last year's December. The falling of producer prices was curbed particularly by higher prices of district heat, machinery and equipment, and wood.

The Export Price Index fell by 1.5 per cent and the Import Price Index by 2.6 per cent in the year. The Basic Price Index for Domestic Supply went down by 0.9 per cent. The Basic Price Index for Domestic Supply including taxes went up by 0.1 per cent.

Export prices were in particular depressed by the falling prices of manufacturing of basic metals and oil products from December 2012. The falling of the prices was curbed particularly by higher prices of machinery and equipment and paper and paper products. The fall in import prices was especially caused by lower prices of manufacturing of basic metals and crude oil compared with last year's December. The fall in the prices was particularly curbed by risen prices of food.

From November to December, producer prices for manufactured products fell by 0.1 per cent. The fall was mainly due to decreased prices of electricity, and paper and board products.
