^{note (1) page 38} Car prices (including tax) are much lower, in relation to 1958, than those of other goods. When, therefore, in any quarter there is a big drop in the proportion of consumer spending which goes on cars, and consequently a rise in the proportion which goes on other goods, this by itself—even if there are no price changes in that quarter at all—has the effect of raising the consumer price index. Between the second and fourth quarters of 1966, the sharp drop in spending on cars may have added as much as 0.8 points to the change in the consumer price index; as spending on cars recovers this year, the effect will be reversed.
