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`


State whether the following statement is true or false:

Dorbish-Bowley's Price Index Number is the square root of the product of Laspeyre's and Paasche's Index Numbers.


`sqrt((sump_1q_0)/(sump_0q_0)) xx sqrt((sump_1q_1)/(sump_0q_1)) xx 100`


Laspeyre’s Price Index Number uses current year’s quantities as weights.


In the following table, Laspeyre's and Paasche's Price Index Numbers are equal. Complete the following activity to find x :

Commodity Base Year Current year
Price Quantity Price Quantity
A 2 10 2 5
B 2 5 x 2

Solution: P01(L) = P01(P)

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

`(20 + 5x)/square xx 100 = square/14 xx 100`

∴ x = `square`
