Geometric average does wonders too.

Example: you buy A,B,C,D,E for $1 this month.

Price of A increased 90%
Price of B increaded 10%
Price of C increased 20%
Price of D increased 30%
Price of E dropped 90%

You pay $5.60 to buy A,B,C,D, and E next month.

BLS calculates monthly inflation of.... (1.9 * 1.1 * 1.2 * 1.3 * 0.1)^1/5 -1

-20.8% TADA!

Did you notice SEVERE deflation?
No? I thought so! -vbg-
