Brief description:

E.g.: When field operators go to collect data on prices, they must always answer the following question: “What is the CPI and why do we need it?” Here is the operators’ answer: “the calculation of the CPI is very important for measuring the inflation in the household consumption sphere, for determining the purchasing power of incomes, wages, pensions; for negotiating the wages and the indexation of pensions and allowances, for substantiating the decision making in the social field, for substantiating the calculation of the real interest, for deflating some value  indicators in retail trade and services and for international comparisons”.
