The following table shows the price of a specific stereo receiver for a five-year period. Using year 3 as the base year, calculate the price index for each year
To get the price index numbers, one would divide the given year’s price by the year 3 price and multiply the result by 100 to express as a percentage in index form. So the year 5 index is $140 divided by $120 or 1.17. Multiply 1.17 ? 100 to get 117 expressed in percentage.
