Fisher’s Price Index Number
`"P"_01^"F" = sqrt((sum"p"_1"q"_0 xx sum"p"_1"q"_1)/(sum"p"_0"q"_0 xx sum"p"_0"q"_1)) xx 100`
= `sqrt((2900 xx 3490)/(2336 xx 2896)) xx 100`
= `sqrt((10121000)/(6765056)) xx 100`
= `sqrt(1.4961) xx 100`
= `1.2232 xx 100`
= 122.32
Time Reserved Test: P01 × P10 = 1
= `sqrt((sum"p"_1"q"_0 xx sum"p"_1"q"_1 xx sum"q"_1"p"_0 xx sum"q"_0"p"_0)/(sum"p"_0"q"_0 xx sum"p"_0"q"_1 xx sum"p"_1"q"_1 xx sum"p"_0"p"_1))`
= `sqrt((2900 xx 3490 xx 2896 xx 2336)/(2336 xx 2896 xx 3490 xx 2900)`
= 1
