Answer: (a) Σq₀ = 140, Σq₁ = 280; (b) Q₀₁ = 200 (a) Σq₀ = 20 + 40 + 60 + 20 = 140; Σq₁ = 45 + 70 + 105 + 60 = 280. (b) Quantity index number (simple aggregative method): Q₀₁ = Σ q₁/Σ q₀× 100 = 280/140× 100 = 2× 100 = 200 Q₀₁ = 200. The quantity in 2001 has increased by 100% compared with the base year 2000.

Best answer

Answer: (a) Σq₀ = 140, Σq₁ = 280; (b) Q₀₁ = 200

(a) Σq₀ = 20 + 40 + 60 + 20 = 140; Σq₁ = 45 + 70 + 105 + 60 = 280.

(b) Quantity index number (simple aggregative method):

\(Q_{01} = \frac{\sum q_1}{\sum q_0}\times 100 = \frac{280}{140}\times 100 = 2\times 100 = 200\)

Q₀₁ = 200. The quantity in 2001 has increased by 100% compared with the base year 2000.
