In response, we have archived the predecessor pair (2005=100, monthly January 1994 to September 2016, quarterly 1994Q1 to 2016Q2) by renaming with an "_05" specifier and by marking the metadata and catalog as "discontinued." The replacements (2011=100) start at January 1994. Figures are seasonally adjusted (SA).
The series reside in the historical catalog (Japan » Cyclical indicators » Synthetic consumption index) and are:
- NAIPCIEAM.IJPN = [DISCONTINUED] Real Private Consumption Index: Total, (2005=100, SA) - Monthly
- CIIEACCSTAM.IJPN = (Vol. Index 2011=2010, SA) - Monthly
- NAIPCIEAQ.IJPN = [DISCONTINUED] (2005=100, SA) - Quarterly
- CIIEACCSTAQ.IJPN = (Vol. Index 2011=2010, SA) - Quarterly
Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.
Please be aware that:
- The synthetic consumption index is inflation-adjusted (it is a volume index) and we have standardized the unit-descriptor to that effect.
- We have standardized the replacement mnemonics.
