Tourist Price Index (TPI) for the fourth quarter of 2009 rose by 9.23% year-on-year to 158.58.
The price indices of Miscellaneous Goods; Accommodation; and Food, Alcoholic Drinks &
Tobacco increased notably by 26.16%, 13.16% and 4.12% respectively, attributable to dearer prices of jewellery led by rising gold prices, higher hotel room rate during the National Day holidays, the Macao Grand Prix and Christmas holiday period, as well as general increase of food prices. On the contrary, lower airfares pushed the price index of Transport & Communications down by 3.47% year-on-year.
The fourth quarter TPI went up by 7.39% quarter-to-quarter, of which the price indices of Accommodation and Miscellaneous Goods increased by 36.66% and 11.85% respectively. On the other hand, price indices of Entertainment & Cultural Activities; and Clothing & Footwear decreased slightly by 0.90% and 0.21% respectively.

No. 4 DSEC 4th QUARTER/2009 TOURIST PRICE INDEX
METHODOLOGY The 1999/2000-based quarterly TPI is compiled based on the consumption structure of visitors derived from the Visitor Expenditure Survey. The representative goods and services of the TPI “basket” are selected according to the percentage share of each item in the total expenditure. TPI is used to reflect the price changes of the goods and services purchased by visitors in order to measure the real change of visitors’ expenditure.
TPI comprises 89 items of goods and services, which are grouped into eight sections, as follows:
Section 1: Food, Alcoholic Drinks and Tobacco Section 2: Clothing and Footwear
Section 3: Accommodation Section 4: Restaurant Services
Section 5: Transport and Communications Section 6: Medicine and Personal Goods Section 7: Entertainment and Cultural Activities Section 8: Miscellaneous Goods
Every quarter, enumerators from the Statistics and Census Service visit 125 selected outlets to collect price information on the TPI goods and services. These outlets include souvenir and Chinese pastry shops, hotels, restaurants, boutiques, entertainment establishments, jewellery stores and ticket outlets for outbound transport.
For index calculation, the average price of each item of goods and services in the base period is the simple average of the prices in the four quarters of the base year. The simple index of an item measures its price change between the base period and the current period. The aggregate index is compiled from the simple indices by using the Laspeyres Index formula.
