World Economic outlook Australian Consumer Price Index (CPI) december 2011 : The Australian Bureau of Statistics will on January 25 publish Consumer Price Index figures for the December quarter.
An AAP survey of 12 economists found a median forecast for a 0.2 per cent rise in headline inflation and a 0.6 increase in underlying inflation during the quarter.
That would take the annual headline inflation rate to 3.3, while the underlying rate would be 2.5 - smack bang in the middle of the Reserve Bank of Australia's (RBA) target range of between 2 and 3 per cent.
