Understanding the Inflation Adjustment Index

An inflation adjustment index reflects price evolution in an inflationary market or indicates how inflation fluctuates in the market. In the PLAP method, the indexes are used to adjust those purchases that did not occur within the valuation period.

The indexes that should be applied are published monthly by the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INDEC).

The indexes are identified by adjustment codes.

You use the Adjustment Indexes program (P76A391) to maintain the inflation adjustment indexes.
