摘要:
The concept of a “true” cost of living index has been carefully defined in theoretical economic-statistical literature, but the relation between this concept and officially published cost of living indices (ordinarily computed by Laspeyre's formula) has never been established. Theoreticians have shown only thatL>I0and thatI1>P, where:Lis Laspeyre's index;I0is the true index based on the real income level of the base period;I1is the true index based on the real income level of the given period;Pis Paasche's index.
