Comments: The vendor stated through their renewal option that their prices would increase 1.4% for the fiscal year 7-1-12 to 6-30-13, and this is below the increase in the current-carrying wiring devices (4.9%) and wire connectors for electrical circuitry (1.8%) as stated in the Producer Price Index. This increase is considered fair and reasonable.
