The Austrian CPI measure price changes in a fixed basket of goods and services bought in Austria for the purpose of consumption by all Austrian households, foreign visitors and residents in institutional households. The prices used in the CPI calculation are the transaction prices actually paid by consumers including taxes less any general discounts, rebates or subsidies.

Treatment of rentals for housing: Apartments rent abroad are included. Treatment of Owner-Occupied Housing: Regular payments for Owner occupied flats are included (payment approach), initial payments are excluded. House construction goods and services and major repairs are included. The purchase of a house and other real estate (land prices, housing agents) are not included. Treatment of missing prices: Prices are adjusted by the rate of change of the other price observations of the same product. If product offers are not available any more a new product offer is selected as replacement immediately after three months at latest. Treatment of quality changes: Quantity adjustment for food, Expert Judgment adjustment method e.g. for clothing, Option pricing method for durables and cars, Hedonic method for notebooks. Introduction of new products: New products are selected with respect to demand (turnover) and availability and they are introduced every December. New models and varieties are implemented by replacement as soon as they become relevant. Treatment of seasonal items: When a product offer disappears for seasonal non-availability, it is not replaced but its price relative is excluded from calculation. The index is then calculated with the rest of available prices. If the seasonal variety becomes available again the respective price relative is included in the calculation again (after potential quality adjustment). For a minority of products which would not at all be available in whole Austria the last prices are carried forward (e.g. schools and theatres in summer or public baths in winter).; Index series starts in January 1997
