企業物価、６月も過去最高　飲食料や石油、電力上昇―日銀

　日銀が１２日発表した６月の国内企業物価指数（速報値、２０２０年平均＝１００）は１１３．８となり、３カ月連続で過去最高を更新した。前年同月比９．２％上昇と１６カ月連続のプラス。ロシアのウクライナ侵攻を背景としたエネルギー価格高騰や円安を受けた飲食料品の値上げなどが進んだ。企業物価指数は企業間で取引されるモノの価格を示す。
　分野別では石油・石炭製品が２２．２％、化学製品が１２．５％、電力・都市ガス・水道が２８．２％といずれも大幅に上昇。原油高の影響を受けやすい品目が全体の水準を押し上げた。
　飲食料品は４．６％引き上がり、指数は１０６．１と過去最高を更新。原材料価格の高騰を消費者への販売価格に転嫁する動きが広がっており、日銀は値上げの動向について「引き続き注視していく」としている。（2022/07/12-11:40）

The producer price index in Japan hit an all-time high for the third straight month in June amid soaring energy prices stemming from Russia's invasion of Ukraine and food price hikes reflecting the yen's depreciation, Bank of Japan data showed Tuesday.
   The index, which measures costs of goods traded between businesses, rose 9.2 pct from a year before to 113.8 against the 2020 base of 100, rising for the 16th straight month, according to the preliminary data from the central bank.
   Prices of oil and coal products jumped 22.2 pct, chemical product prices climbed 12.5 pct and prices for electricity, city gas and water supplies soared 28.2 pct, showing that items vulnerable to increases in crude oil prices pushed up the overall index.
   The food and beverage price index scaled a record high of 106.1, up 4.6 pct. With more and more companies starting to pass on rising materials costs to retail prices, a BOJ official said the central bank will continue to carefully monitor price hike trends.
   Of the 515 goods surveyed by the BOJ, 409, or around 80 pct, saw prices grow.
