For operators filing FCC Form 1210, an annual adjustment  xmay be made based on inflation occurring from June 30 of the previous year to June 30 of the  xyear in which the inflation adjustment is made. For operators filing FCC Form 1240, an  xiadjustment may be made based on quarterly figures. All adjustments are based on changes in the  xGross National Product Price Index (GNPPI) as published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis  xz(BEA) of the United States Department of Commerce. The indexes used, the Gross National  xProduct: Chaintype price indexes, were obtained from Table 5 of the BEA news release dated September 24, 1998 (BEA 9830).  X- FCC Form 1210   xMThe inflation factor for the 12 months ended June 30, 1998 is 1.0101. Operators that wish to  x/take this year's inflation adjustment using FCC Form 1210 should enter the figure 1.0101 on  xLines I5 and J5 of the form. This year's inflation adjustment factor is calculated by taking the  xMGNPPI from the second quarter of 1998 (112.51) and dividing by the GNPPI for the second  xquarter of 1997 (111.39). Operators may take this year's inflation adjustment between October 1, 1998 and August 31, 1999.  X - FCC Form 1240   xkThe Second Quarter 1998 Inflation Factor for operators using FCC Form 1240 is 1.0082. The  xadjustment factor of 1.0082 is a measure of the annualized change in prices occurring over the  xperiod from April 1, 1998 to June 30, 1998. The inflation adjustment factor is calculated by  xtaking the GNPPI from the second quarter of 1998 (112.51) and dividing by the GNPPI for the  xyfirst quarter of 1998 (112.28). The result of this calculation is converted from a quarterly change measurement factor to an annual change measurement factor by raising it to the fourth power.  x[Operators calculating the Inflation Factor for a TrueUp Period which includes some portion of  xKthe second quarter of 1998 should enter the inflation factor on the appropriate lines of Worksheet  x1 of FCC Form 1240 as "0.0082."
