Question

Find values x and y if the Price Index Number by Simple Aggregate Method by taking 2001 as base year is 120, given `sum"p"_1` = 300.

Commodity A B C D
Price (in ₹) in 2001 90 x 90 30
Price (in ₹) in 2004 95 60 y 35
Chart
Sum

Solution

Commodity Price (in ₹)
in 2001: p0
Price (in ₹)
in 2004: p1
A 90 95
B x 60
C 90 y
D 30 35
Total x + 210 y + 190

From the table, `sum"p"_0` = x + 210, `sum"p"_1` = y + 190

Given that `sum"p"_1` = 300

∴ y + 190 = 300

∴ y = 300 – 19

∴ y = 110

Price Index Number (P01) = `(sum"p"_1)/(sum"p"_0) xx 100`

120 = `300/(x + 210) xx 100`

∴ x + 210 = `(300 xx 100)/120`

∴ x + 210 = 250

∴ x = 250 – 210

∴ x = 40

∴ x = 40 and y = 110
