We will measure how much the cost of living and rates of inflation differ across the eight capital cities in Australia, and then test whether real per capita income levels across cities are converging or diverging over time. To make such comparisons, the ABS's databases on each capital city must first be harmonized. While doing this we will review the ABS's current procedures for data construction and quality assessment. A further aim is to show how statistical modelling using spanning-tree methods can resolve the conflict that arises for price indexes constructed on panel data sets between temporal and spatial consistency.

我们将衡量澳大利亚八个首府城市的生活成本和通货膨胀率差异有多大，然后测试不同城市的实际人均收入水平随着时间的推移是趋同还是分化。为了进行此类比较，必须首先协调统计局每个首府城市的数据库。在此过程中，我们将审查 ABS 现行的数据构建和质量评估程序。进一步的目的是展示使用生成树方法的统计建模如何解决在面板数据集上构建的价格指数在时间和空间一致性之间产生的冲突。
