Explanation / Answer

Q-9:

ANS: Consumer Price Index =Price of Current year(calculating year)/Price of Base Year x100

Here price of current year = Add all the Current Year price (1+2+3)=6

Price of Bse year= Add all the Base year Price (3+3+3)=9

CPI=6/9*100=66.67

That means CPI in 2000 is 66.67 ..This means prices increases from in 2000 to 2002 is 100-66.67=33.33
