Price index = current year /base year × 100
For Commodity A = 25/20 × 100 = 128%
For Commodity B = 10/5 × 100 = 200%
For Commodity C = 30/15 × 100 = 200%
For Commodity D = 50/40 × 100 = 125%
For Commodity E = 450/200 × 100 = 225%

Total prices in 1971 = 25+10+30+50+450 = N565
Total Prices in 1970 = 20+5+15+40+20 = N280
:. Overall price index P.I = 565/280 × 100 = 201.8%
(1c)
Total prices in 1971 = 25+10+30+50+450 = N565
Total Prices in 1970 = 20+5+15+40+20 = N280
Total prices level between 1970 and 1971 = 565+280 = N845
Total prices level change between 1970 and 1971 = 565-280 = N285
:. General percentage change between 1970 and 1971 price level = 285/845 × 100 = 33.73%

(iii)Transport facilities: Transport facilities also determine the volume of production. Better transpor
