उत्तर

  Simple index numbers Weighted index numbers
1) Simple index numbers is a method of constructing an index number in which every commodity is given equal importance. Weighted index numbers is a method of constructing an index number in which suitable weights are assigned to various commodities.
2) This method can be applied to determine the price index number, quantity index number, and value index number. The method can be applied to determine price index numbers and the special-purpose index numbers.
3) It is the easiest method for constructing index numbers. It is relatively complex as compared to simple index numbers.
