There are several different forms of the Consumer Price Index, but the one used in the RCC is the annual average price level for All Goods. Because this is the <u>annual average</u> price level, it is only updated once the full year has elapsed, so the latest available value is always 1 year behind the current calendar year.

This table is updated once per year, usually mid-January. A new RCC will likely be updated every January to account for this update, but if you want to update an RCC you're working on the second the data becomes available, feel free to add a new row with the new price level yourself.
