MCQ
सत्य या असत्य

उत्तर

I agree with the given statement.

Explanation:

There are indeed many types of index numbers. Index numbers are statistical tools used to measure changes in a variable or group of variables over time.

  1. Price Index Number: It measures the general changes in the prices of goods. It compares the level of prices between two different time periods.
  2. Quantity Index Number: It is also called volume index number. It measures changes in the level of output or physical volume of production in the economy, such as changes in agricultural production, industrial production, etc., over a period of time.
  3. Value Index Number: The value of a commodity is the product of its price and quantity (p × q). Value index number measures the changes in the value of a variable in terms of rupee. It is a more informative index as it combines both, changes in the price as well as quantity.
  4. Special Purpose Index Number: These numbers are constructed with a specific purpose, such as import-export index numbers, labour productivity index numbers, share price index numbers, etc.
