2、audio-visual, office and information processing equipment pose unique challenges for ICP price collection and PPP computation. These are related to: Short life cycles and the overall fast changing nature of these productsTendency of consumer electronics companies to create market fragmentation by in

5、ons may have different BH classification(s) Number of items for the BH varies across the regions ApproachAn approach to resolve this problem is based on the following four main elements: Focus on products with wide availability, low number of alternative models for the same product type, and relativ

6、ely long lifespan or with replacement models which can be clearly identified Based on the four elements, the Global Core List (GCL) is being revised to include 16 new items Improve the item specifications so that they list the key price determining factors and indicate a product series instead of a

13、wing three simple pricing rules should be followed during the price collection:Brand(s) and series define features such as physical characteristics, type of the product and used technology in general terms 1. Price only the brand(s) and series listed in the item specificationIn this case the cheapes

Pricing Guidelines (2)the following third simple pricing rule should be followed during the price collection:Availability of identical products across the countries may be limited; products with very similar spe
