Question
Given the following table, find Walsh’s Price Index Number by completing the activity.
| Commodity | p0 | q0 | p1 | q1 | q0q1 | `sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)` | p0`sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)` | p1`sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)` |
| I | 20 | 9 | 30 | 4 | 36 | `square` | `square` | 180 |
| II | 10 | 5 | 50 | 5 | `square` | 5 | 50 | `square` |
| III | 40 | 8 | 10 | 2 | 16 | `square` | 160 | `square` |
| IV | 30 | 4 | 20 | 1 | `square` | 2 | `square` | 40 |
| Total | – | – | – | – | 390 | `square` |
Walsh’s price Index Number is
P01(W) = `square/(sum"p"_0sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)) xx 100`
= `510/square xx 100`
= `square`

Solution
| Commodity | p0 | q0 | p1 | q1 | q0q1 | `sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)` | p0`sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)` | p1`sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)` |
| I | 20 | 9 | 30 | 4 | 36 | 6 | 120 | 180 |
| II | 10 | 5 | 50 | 5 | 25 | 5 | 50 | 250 |
| III | 40 | 8 | 10 | 2 | 16 | 4 | 160 | 40 |
| IV | 30 | 4 | 20 | 1 | 4 | 2 | 60 | 40 |
| Total | – | – | – | – | 390 | 510 |
Walsh’s price Index Number is
P01(W) = `(sum"p"_1sqrt("q"_0"q"_1))/(sum"p"_0sqrt("q"_0"q"_1)) xx 100`
= `510/390 xx 100`
= 130.77
