3 Foreword This publication provides the monthly Consumer Price Indices for Uga (Composite) for the eight baskets of Kampala High Income, Kampala Low Middle Income, Jinja, Mbale, Masaka, Mbarara, Gulu Arua. All the baskets are for the urban households. The current Consumer Price Index was rebased from (July 1 to June 1 = 1) to (July to June = 1) using weights derived from the / Uga National Household Survey data. During the rebasing exercise, Kampala was decomposed into two baskets. In addition, Arua centre was incorporated into the Index. The number of elementary aggregates in the revised Index was increased from 1 to. At the elementary aggregate level, the indices are computed using the Jevons (Geometric Mean) method for all items within the elementary aggregates. The modified Laspeyres formula is used to compute higher level indices. The National CPI is computed as a weighted average of the eight baskets mentioned above.
