Question 15

(a) Taking 2008 as the base year, with an index number 100, calculate the index number for 2012, based on weighted average of price relatives derived from the table given below:

 Commodity A B C D Weights 30 15 25 30 Price per unit in 2008 20 10 5 40 Price per unit in 2012 25 20 30 40
