Solution:

Commodity Base Year Current Year p1q0 p0q0 p1q1 p0q1
  p0 q0 p1 q1
I 8 30 12 25 360 240 300 200
II 10 42 20 16 840 420 320 160
Total         `bb(sump_1q_0=1200)` `bb(sump_0q_0=660)` `bb(sump_1q_1=620)` `bb(sump_0q_1=360)`

Laspeyre's Price Index Number:

P01(L) = `(sum"p"_1"q"_0)/(sum"p"_0"q"_0) xx 100 = square/660xx100`

∴ P01(L) = `square`

Paasche 's Price Index Number:

P01(P) = `(sum"p"_1"q"_1)/(sum"p"_0"q"_1) xx 100=(620)/(square) xx 100`

∴ P01(P) = `square`
