      <abstract xml:lang="en">In his survey about wage development in Germany from 1871 to 1945 Gerhard Bry (1960) composes an overview about different estimations for index series for costs of living for the period from 1871 to 1913. The index series differ in their regional ties (German Empire, Silesia, Bavaria, Ruhr area, Berlin, Essen, Braunschweig, Lübeck, Mannheim, Stuttgart and Prussia) and also in the composition of the different components (food and rent, only food, costs of living).  The indices are in general quite similar to each other, as Bry already noticed. To what extent differences in the details are due to local differences is difficult to assess. The only index, which differs significantly compared to other series from 1877 to 1892, is the board of trade for Krupp, Essen. “In order to test Kuczynski’s index, we compared it with the major available independent food cost measures – whether included in his index or not. This comparison is carried through in the table A-11. In spite of differences in detail there is a rather striking similarity in the behavior of all these series – particularly with respect to trends” (Bry, G., 1960, a. a. O., Appendix A-11).   Data tables in HISTAT: A.01 Index – Series of costs of living, comparison of estimations (1871-1913)</abstract><abstract xml:lang="de">In seiner Untersuchung zur Lohnentwicklung in Deutschland von 1871 bis 1945 hat Gerhard Bry (1960) eine Übersicht zu verschiedenen Schätzungen für Index-Reihen der Lebenshaltungskosten für die Zeit 1871 bis 1913 gegenübergestellt. Die Index-Reihen unterscheiden sich sowohl in dem regionalen Bezug (Deutsches Reich, Schlesien, Bayern, Ruhrgebiet, Berlin, Essen, Braunschweig, Lübeck, Mannheim, Stuttgart und Preußen) als auch in der Zusammensetzung ihrer Komponenten (Ernährung und Miete, lediglich Ernährung, Lebenshaltungskosten). Im Allgemeinen verlaufen die Indices, wie Bry bemerkt, recht ähnlich. Inwiefern Unterschiede im Einzelnen auf lokale Verschiedenheiten zurückzuführen sind ist schwer einzuschätzen. Der einzige Index, der in den Jahren 1877 bis 1892 deutliche Unterschiede im Vergleich zu den übrigen Reihen aufweist, ist der des Board of Trade für Krupp (Essen. „In order to test Kuczynski’s index, we compared it with the major available independent food cost measures – whether included in his index or not. This comparison is carried through in the table A-11.
