Solution:

3 and 5 Marks Questions

Question 1.
Using Fisher’s Ideal Formula, compute price and quantity index number for 1984 with 1982 as the base year, from the given information.

Solution:

Question 2.
Using the following data, compute Fisher’s Ideal price index number for the current year.

Solution:

Question 3.
Calculate the cost of living Index number from the following data.

Solution:

Cost of living index number = \(\frac{\sum P W}{\sum W}=\frac{1568.75}{12}\) = 130.73

Question 4.
Given below are the values of the sample mean (\(\bar{X}\)) and the range (R) for ten samples of size 5 each. Find the control charts and comment on the state of the process.

Use A₂ = 0.58, D₃ = 0, D₄ = 2.115
Solution:


We observe that all the sample range values are within the control limits values of R chart, But two values of the sample \(\bar{X}\) (i.e) 37, 37 lies below the LCL and 49, 51 lie above the UCL. So the statistical process is out of control.

Question 5.
Fit a straight line trend equation by the method of least squares and estimate the trend values.

Solution:
Let Y_t = a + bx be the trend line.
Let X = \(\frac{x-1964.5}{0.5}\), x denotes year.

When x = 1961, Y_t = 91.75 – 7(1.25) = 83
When x = 1962, Y_t = 91.75 – 5(1.25) = 85.5
We can find other values similarly.
