中文摘要：

公路运输价格指数是反映公路运输市场的晴雨表,本文基于广义价格指数概念,借鉴公路货运价格指数研究成果、波罗的海航运指数和居民消费价格指数等实践经验,用公路运输调查期与基期平均价格的比值计算公路运输价格指数。以济南市为例,进一步说明了本文提出公路运输价格指数编制方法的有效性和可行性,从公路货运真实交易数据出发,基于运输中的重量规模经济和距离规模经济原理,分别探索公路运输价格的差异性以及影响价格的因素,依据差异性将公路运输价格指数分为经济里程范围外、经济里程范围内整车和经济里程范围内零担运输价格指数三类。研究结果对于城市物流价格指数的编制具有重要的现实指导意义。

英文摘要：

Road transport price index （RTPI） is a barometer that could reflect road transport market. Based on the concept of generalized price index, drawing on the research results of RTPI, the Baltic price index, the consumer price index and other practical experience, the RTPI is calculated by the ratio of the average price of the survey period and the base period. Using real transaction data of road transport to recognize the main factors which impact the transport price, and then classified the RTPI into three kinds： outside the economic mileage, FTL （full truck load） within the economic mileage and LTL （less truck load） within the economic mileage based on weight-scale and distance-scale economy principle. Finally, taking Jinan City as an example to illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of RTPI compilation method, the results will have important practical significance for lo- gistics price index compilation.
