본문내용

a. What is the percentage change in the price of each of the three goods?
Tennis balls = 0% change
Golf balls = 50% change [={($60-$40)/$40}×100%]
Bottle of Gatorade = 100% change [={($2-$1)/$1×100%}]

b. Using a method similar to the consumer price index, compute the percentage change in the overall price level.
① 2006 : (100×$2) + (100×$4) + (200×$1) = $800
2007 : (100×$2) + (100×$6) + (200×$2) = $1,200

② 2006 : $800/$800 × 100 = 100
2007 : $1,200/$800 × 100 = 150
