Producer Price Indexes, Australia, June Quarter 2024

What are the Producer Price Indexes (PPIs)?

What is Final demand?

Quarterly overview

Final demand increased 1.0% this quarter with rises across most industries. Construction output prices continued to be impacted by rising labour costs and skilled trade shortages. Services output prices were influenced by higher prices linked to fees for property operators, while rises were partially offset by price falls across outputs influenced by lower seasonal demand, such as accommodation.

The main contributors to quarterly growth in Final demand were:

Property operators (+2.1%), driven by fees linked to increased rents, as demand for rental dwellings outstripped supply in a constrained market.
Residential building construction (+1.2%), due to rising labour costs and shortages of skilled tradespeople, particularly finishing trades.
Non-residential building construction (+1.5%), driven by ongoing labour shortages and demand from government led projects such as schools, defence, health, and other building infrastructure.

Offsetting the rise were price falls in:

Accommodation (-8.2%), due to usual seasonal falls following higher summer holiday demand and major events, with reduced domestic demand during colder months.

Construction

Input to the house construction industry

Energy intensive and finishing materials continue to impact higher Input to House construction prices

Input prices to house construction recorded a rise of 0.4% for the quarter and 1.1% over the year to June quarter 2024. Prices for Other materials, Electrical equipment and Cement products rose due to increased raw material costs, most notably gypsum, copper and cement. Elevated labour and energy costs for manufacturing also contributed to input prices of house construction. Offsetting these rises, falls in input costs for steel are allowing suppliers to discount products as overall demand for new house construction continues to ease. Reinforcing steel and steel beams have also fallen due to weak demand for steel globally.

In building materials, the main contributors were:

Other materials (+1.2%), driven by plaster products (+4.0%), due to elevated input costs into manufacturing, and low gypsum supply.
Electrical equipment (+2.3%), driven by electric cables and conduit (+3.1%), due to higher copper prices for manufacturing.
Cement products (+2.4%), driven by fibrous cement products (+3.3%), due to elevated labour, energy and freight costs.

Partially offsetting this were price falls in:

Plumbing products (-0.9%), driven by sheet metal sanitaryware (-5.3%), due to falling demand for house construction and lower raw material costs for manufacturing.
Steel products (-2.2%), driven by falling demand for steel globally, and weak demand for early-stage construction materials.

Output of the construction industry

Building construction

Building construction prices rose 1.3% this quarter and 6.3% over the past twelve months.

Growth in prices received for Building construction was driven by labour costs, with ongoing labour shortages for skilled tradespeople and anticipated wage increases impacting output prices. While most material prices continued to stabilise, prices increased for energy intensive materials. The ongoing activity in the non-residential market, coupled with pressure from the residential and infrastructure sectors, continued to drive competition for limited resources, maintaining prices at elevated levels.

The quarterly price movements by class were:

House construction (+1.0%).
Other residential building construction (+1.6%).
Non-residential construction (+1.5%).

House construction prices rose 1.0%.

House construction prices rose this quarter, driven by increases in Western Australia and South Australia. Ongoing labour shortages, particularly for finishing trades, continued to be the main factor impacting price increases across all states. Differing demand continued to impact prices, with strong demand in Western Australia and South Australia influencing stronger growth compared to other states.

Over the past twelve months, House construction prices rose 4.3%.

Other residential building construction prices rose 1.6%.

Growth in Other residential construction prices were driven by New South Wales, Queensland, and Victoria. Ongoing labour shortages for skilled tradespeople and anticipated wage increases were the primary factors impacting price increases this quarter. Increased margins also contributed to the price rise, as project risks associated with input cost volatility, labour availability and competing demand from non-residential and infrastructure projects remain. Concrete, windows, and plasterboard prices increased due to elevated energy costs adding to production costs.

Over the past twelve months, Other residential building construction prices rose 7.7%.

Non-residential construction prices rose 1.5%.

Non-residential construction prices increased, driven by rises in New South Wales, Queensland, and Victoria. The price rise was due to ongoing labour shortages amid high demand for government led projects such as schools, defence, health, and other building infrastructure. Contractors continued to maintain or increase margins to reflect the risk related to the availability and cost increases of labour and materials.

Over the past twelve months, Non-residential building construction prices rose 7.2%.

The main contributors to the input price rise were:

Metal ore mining (+8.6%), driven by strong gold demand following global geopolitical and economic uncertainties.
Agriculture to manufacturing (+1.7%), driven by strong seasonal increases to milk and dairy products.
Basic chemical production (+4.3%), due to crop damage from heavy rainfall, causing disruptions to global rubber supply.

Offsetting the rise, were price falls in:

Coal mining (-19.5%), driven by weakened global steel demand reducing the price of imported metallurgical coal for steel production.
Oil and gas extraction (-1.5%), due to lower global crude oil prices amid reduced oil supply disruptions.

The main contributors to output price rises of the manufacturing industries were:

Basic non-ferrous metal manufacturing (+12.0%), due to higher gold prices prompted by buying activity from central banks. Higher commodity prices for base metals also contributed to the rise.
Meat and meat product manufacturing (+4.9%), due to strong export demand for beef driven by a shortage in the United States.
Cement, lime, plaster and concrete product manufacturing (+2.3%), driven by increased input costs including raw materials and energy.

Offsetting the rise were price falls in:

Other transport equipment manufacturing (-4.6%), driven by reduced raw material costs for aircraft parts.

Services

Output of the services industries

Accommodation and food services prices fell, driven by:

Accommodation services (-8.8%), following higher demand due to school holidays and major events last quarter, and reduced domestic travel during colder months. June quarters traditionally record price falls, with this trend interrupted in 2021 and 2022 when Covid impacted usual seasonal demand patterns.

This was partially offset by:

Cafes, restaurants and takeaway food services (+0.7%), passing on higher input and operating costs.

Over the past twelve months:

Accommodation services prices rose 1.7%.
Cafes, restaurants and takeaway food services prices rose 4.1%.

Transport, postal and warehousing services prices rose, driven by:

Postal and courier pick-up and delivery services (+5.7%), due to increased input costs leading to price rises for ordinary letters.
Water freight transport services (+1.2%), as global supply congestion from the Red Sea conflict increased shipping costs. This was the first rise in this index after six consecutive quarters of price falls from the peak of this series.

This was partially offset by the flow through of falling fuel prices seen in previous quarters leading to falls in prices for:

Rail freight transport services (-3.5%), and
Road freight transport services (-0.1%).

Over the past twelve months:

Postal and courier pick-up and delivery services prices rose 10.8%.
Water freight transport prices fell 35.1%.
Rail freight transport prices rose 2.2%.
Road freight transport prices rose 4.7%.

Rental, hiring and real estate services prices rose, driven by:

Non-residential property operators (+0.9%), due to rises in industrial rents as demand for warehouses and distribution centres continues to outpace supply. This is the 14th consecutive rise for this series.
Real estate services (+1.4%), due to growth in property prices leading to higher services fees.

This was partially offset by:

Passenger car rental and hiring (-5.9%), driven by reductions in household car hire rates due to lower overall demand and excess fleet size capacity. As with holiday accommodation this is a return to the typical seasonal pattern for June quarters which traditionally record price falls following the summer holiday period in March quarter.

Over the past twelve months:

Non-residential property operators rose 6.1%.
Real estate services rose 1.2%.
Passenger car rental and hiring fell 13.6%.

Using price indexes

Price indexes in contracts

Price indexes published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) provide summary measures of the movements in various categories of prices over time. They are published primarily for use in Government economic analysis. Price indexes are also often used in contracts by businesses and government to adjust payments and/or charges to take account of changes in categories of prices (Indexation Clauses).

Use of Price Indexes in Contracts sets out a range of issues that should be taken into account by parties considering including an Indexation Clause in a contract using an ABS published price index.

Changes in this issue

From June quarter 2024, the method used to calculate the series 440 Accommodation services (Table 20. Output of the Accommodation and food services industries, group index numbers) will change. Accommodation services are usually purchased in advance of travel and prices will continue to be collected on this basis. However, the timing of when these prices apply to the index will change to align with when the accommodation service is actually used. There will be no changes to prior quarter’s data.
