उत्तर
| Commodity | 1996 (Base year) |
1999 (Current year) |

| p0 | q0 | p1 | q1 | |||||
| A | 5 | 10 | 4 | 12 | 50 | 60 | 40 | 48 |

| C | 6 | 3 | 5 | 4 | 18 | 24 | 15 | 20 |
| Total | `sum"p"_0"q"_0` = 116 | `sum"p"_0"q"_1` = 140 | `sum"p"_1"q"_0` = 97 | `sum"p"_1"q"_0` = 117 | ||||
Fisher’s Index number
`"P"_01^"F" = sqrt((sum"p"_1"q"_0)/(sum"p"_0"q"_0) xx (sum"p"_1"q"_1)/(sum"p"_0"q"_1)) xx 100`
= `sqrt(97/116 xx 117/140) xx 100`
= `sqrt(11349/16240) xx 100`
= `sqrt(0.6988) xx 100`
= `0.8359 xx 100`
= 83.59
