Abstract
Scanner data coming from the retail trade outlets of modern distributionhas the potential to significantly change how to compile spatial price indexes. Overthe last years, the availability of new sources of data have stimulated various researchstudies for adopting more developed statistical techniques for constructingprice indexes and assessing their accuracy. In order to evaluate the accuracy associatedto point estimates of sub-national PPPs, the Jackknife replication techniqueis suggested and an empirical application is provided by ISTAT 2018 Scanner Datafor the Tuscany region for the basic heading ”mineral water”, ”coffee” and ”driedpasta”.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
