| Wheat | 6 | 10 | 50 | 56 | 300 | 336 | 500 | 560 |
| Ghee | 2 | 2 | 100 | 120 | 200 | 240 | 200 | 240 |
| Firewood | 4 | 6 | 60 | 60 | 240 | 240 | 360 | 360 |
| Sugar | 10 | 12 | 30 | 24 | 300 | 240 | 360 | 288 |
| Cloth | 8 | 12 | 40 | 36 | 320 | 288 | 480 | 432 |
| Total | 1360 | 1344 | 1900 | 1880 | ||||
Fisher's ideal index number = `sqrt((sum"p"_1"q"_0)/(sum"p"_0"q"_0) xx (sum"p"_1"q"_1)/(sum"p"_0"q"_1)) xx 100`
`"P"_01^"F" = sqrt((1900 xx 1880)/(1360 xx 1344)) xx 100`
= `sqrt((3,572,000)/(1,827,840)) xx 100`
= `sqrt(1.9542) xx 100`
Factor reversal test
Test is satisfied when `"P"_01 xx "Q"_01 = (sum"p"_1"q"_1)/(sum"p"_0"q"_0)`
`"Q"_01 = sqrt((sum"p"_0"q"_1 xx sum"p"_1"q"_1)/(sum"p"_0"q"_0 xx sum"p"_1"q"_0))`
= `sqrt((1344 xx 1880)/(1360 xx 1900))`
`"P"_01 xx "Q"_01 = sqrt((1900 xx 1880)/(1360 xx 1344) xx (1344 xx 1880)/(1360 xx 1900)`
= `sqrt((1880 xx 1880)/(1360 xx 1360))`
= `1880/1360`
= `(sum"p"_1"q"_1)/(sum"p"_0"q"_0)`
Hence Fisher’s Ideal Index satisfies Factor reversal test.
