For inclusive class intervals like 10-19, 20-29, the true class boundaries are obtained by: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

For inclusive class intervals like 10-19, 20-29, the true class boundaries are obtained by:
A. Adding 0.5 to both limits
B. Leaving them unchanged
C. Subtracting 0.5 from lower limit and adding 0.5 to upper limit
D. Subtracting 0.5 from both limits
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Inclusive series have gaps; adjusting by half the gap (0.5) gives continuous boundaries: 9.5-19.5, 19.5-29.5, etc.

Which of the following index numbers uses the weighted arithmetic mean of price relatives with base year value weights?
A. Laspeyres index
B. Paasche index
C. Fisher index
D. The Laspeyres index can be expressed as weighted arithmetic mean of price relatives with base period values as weights.

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Laspeyres = Σ (p₁/p₀) × w₀, where w₀ = p₀q₀ / Σp₀q₀. So it is a weighted arithmetic mean of relatives.
