Abstract

The article discusses developments in price and related statistics in Argentina. It notes that the country's history of statistics began with the 1869 national census and evolved as most national statistics offices incorporate more statistical indicators. It mentions the establishment of consumer price index (CPI) in 1924 by the General Directorate for Statistics for the city of Buenos Aires. However, it says that the CPI Department head has refused to introduce changes to the index methodology.
