Using year 2000 as the base year calculate for each year, thea) Basic expenditure index b) Laspeyers price index, and c) Paasche price index1.Using 2016 as the base year, calculate the Laspeyre’s Quantity Index for 2021.A 138.60B 207.47C 72.15D 149.862.In general, consumers are price-takers; thus, they are expected to react to price changes by substituting ice-creamflavours that have become relatively cheaper for those that have become relatively more expensive. This phenomenon isconsistent with the substitution effect. Substitution tends to cause a negative correlation between the price and quantityrelatives.With regard to the observation above, and the indices calculated above, which of the following is false?A The transaction data on the ice-cream sales is not indicative of substitution effect.B The Paasche’s indices are relatively greater than the Laspeyre’s indices.C The price and quantity relatives of the ice-cream data are positively correlated.D The price and quantity relatives of the ice-cream data are negatively correlated.c) The government has released the latest retail price index which suggests inflation was1.62%.
