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`
