４月以降、企業の７割が値上げ　円安・原材料高で加速―帝国データ

　帝国データバンクは１５日、企業の値上げ動向に関する調査結果を発表した。回答のあった１７０１社のうち、４月から来年６月ごろまでに値上げを予定している企業は、実施済みを含めて６８．５％に上った。調査は４月に続き２回目。７～９月に値上げを予定している企業の割合は１９．９％と、前回調査の８．６％から上昇。４月時点から値上げの勢いが増した。
　円安で拍車が掛かる原材料や仕入れ商品の大幅な価格上昇を企業努力で吸収できず、値上げに踏み切る企業が増えていることが裏付けられた。
　業種別に見ると、「飲食料品・飼料製造」で９１．３％、「建材・家具、窯業・土石製品卸売り」で８９．１％が値上げを実施したか予定があると回答。「原材料などの度重なる値上がりがコスト削減を上回り、自助努力では吸収できない」（野菜漬物製造）との声が上がった。（2022/06/15-21:45）

Companies in Japan with price hike plans between April this year and around June next year, including those that have already implemented such plans, accounted for 68.5 pct of all 1,701 firms surveyed this month by credit research company Teikoku Databank Ltd.
   With the yen's weakening helping to accelerate price increases of raw materials and other items companies procure, many surveyed firms said that they decided to raise the prices of their goods or services as the situation has gone beyond the limit of their ability to absorb costs through corporate efforts, according to a survey report released by Teikoku Databank on Wednesday.
   The credit research firm conducted the survey on price hike trends among companies in Japan for the second time. The previous survey was implemented in April.
   In the latest survey, carried out over four days through Monday via the internet, companies planning price hikes in July-September this year accounted for 19.9 pct of all surveyed firms, up from 8.6 pct in the previous survey.
   By industry, the proportion of companies that have price hike plans between April 2022 and around June 2023 stood at 91.3 pct among manufacturers of food items, beverages and feedstuff and 89.1 pct among firms handling building materials, furniture and ceramic products.
