１０月企業物価、３．４％上昇　１４カ月ぶり伸び率、コメ押し上げ―日銀

　日銀が１３日発表した１０月の国内企業物価指数（速報値、２０２０年平均＝１００）は１２３．７と、２カ月連続で過去最高を更新した。前年同月比は３．４％上昇。プラスは４４カ月連続で、伸び率は２３年８月以来、１４カ月ぶりの高水準だった。精米や玄米を含む農林水産物が２６．０％と過去最高の伸びとなり全体を押し上げた。原材料や人件費などのコスト上昇分を価格転嫁する動きも広がった。
　企業物価指数は、企業間で取引されるモノの価格を示す。調査対象５１５品目のうち、３８２品目が上昇、１０７品目が下落した。
　農林水産物価格の上昇には肥料価格や輸送費の高騰も影響した。自動車部品など輸送用機器は１．１％上昇。日銀は価格転嫁の動きが、大企業から中堅・中小企業にも広がりつつあるとみている。このほか、非鉄金属が銅やアルミニウムの市況高騰で１４．６％上昇、電力・都市ガス・水道も５．６％伸びた。（2024/11/13-11:30）

Japan's producer prices in October increased 3.4 pct from a year before, logging a record high for the second straight month, the Bank of Japan said Wednesday.
   The producer price index, which measures the cost of goods traded between businesses, stood at 123.7 against the 2020 base of 100, the central bank said in a preliminary report. The index was up for the 44th consecutive month, and the rate of growth was the fastest since August last year.
   The increase reflected a record 26.0-pct jump in the prices of agricultural, forestry and fishery products including polished and unpolished rice. There were also moves to pass on rising materials and labor costs onto prices.
   Of the 515 items surveyed, 382 logged higher prices while 107 saw lower prices.
   The rise in agricultural, forestry and fishery products prices was also spurred by higher fertilizer prices and transportation costs.
