Price cap plans in regulation are designed to mimic competition. The authors present the index logic that underpins this rationale in North American plans and offer two statistical approaches – indexing and benchmarking – that play a role in determining industry and/or national productivity trends and economy and/or industry input price trends that are used to track the unit cost of the industry.
