Answer: Value Index Number \(V_{01} \approx 128.87\)

Commodity	\(p_0\)	\(q_0\)	\(p_1\)	\(q_1\)	\(p_0q_0\)	\(p_1q_1\)
A	30	22	40	18	660	720
B	40	16	60	12	640	720
C	10	38	15	24	380	360
D	50	12	60	16	600	960
E	20	28	25	36	560	900
Total					2840	3660

\(V_{01} = \dfrac{\Sigma p_1q_1}{\Sigma p_0q_0} \times 100 = \dfrac{3660}{2840} \times 100 = 128.87\) (approx.)
