In Canada, inflation-adjusted revenue figures are based on the Bank of Canada’s consumer price index. All inflation-adjusted figures in the almanac are expressed in December 2023 dollars. The inflation adjustment factor for a given month is calculated as the consumer price index value for December 2023 divided by the consumer price index value for the month. When underlying revenue data covers a period spanning more than one month, inflation-adjusted revenue is determined by first allocating a pro-rata portion of the revenue to each month in the covered period and then adding together the separately calculated inflation-adjusted revenue attributable to each month. The following table shows the raw consumer price indices (CPI) for Canada and the United States by month, for the years 2000 to 2023, together with the corresponding inflation adjustment factor (IAF).
