In order to calculate the IPCA-15, prices were collected from August 15 to September 13, 2024 (reference) and compared with those in effect from July 16 to August 14, 2024 (base). The indicator refers to families with incomes of 1 to 40 minimum wages and covers the Metropolitan Areas of Rio de Janeiro, Porto Alegre, Belo Horizonte, Recife, São Paulo, Belém, Fortaleza, Salvador and Curitiba, as well as Brasília and the city of Goiânia. The methodology used is the same as that of IPCA, the difference lies in the period of data collection and in the geographic coverage.
