Question 1
An Index is at 100 in 2014. It rises by 5 percent in 2015; falls 8 percent in
2016; rises 8 percent in 2017; remains the same in 2018; rises 10 percent
in 2019 and rises 15 percent in 2020. Calculate index number for the
years 2014 through 2020.

Question 2
From the following data about five commodities, determine the simple
aggregative price index for the year 2020.
Commodity: A B C D E
Unit: Kg Metre Sq. ft. Kg Litre
Price in Year 25 160 50 40 16
2019:
Price in Year 28 200 50 32 24
SOL : Suppose
2020: P0 = Base year's (2019) price of all commodities
P1 = Current year's (2020) price of all commodities
