Any Ybiggers any good and splicing two indexs together from the CSO?
I'm looking at the price of bar sales and want do get an index from 2002-2012 with 2002 with the base year. Problem is the CSO have them in two different files, 2000-2008 is one file with the base year 2000 and 2005-2012 is another year, with the base being 2005. How do I go about joining the two, e.g creating a new price index with 2002 as the base year (2002=100)

Can anyone explain the above please? Even though Income and prices have decreased during the period 05-12, bar sales have still fallen?
From what I've been thought in Economics is that when your income rises or something becomes cheaper you demand more of it?

Basically, spending in bars as a percentage of GDP has decreased dramatically over the last few years (while the price charged has only decreased a little) - not a big surprise.
Should you not be using GNP rather than GDP though, given the fact GDP includes multinationals profits, which have not suffered in the same way in the last few years as the general economy? The picture may be a little different if you do it that way. It depends on what you want the figures to show, though. If you want to paint a bleak picture, GDP is the way to go. If you want to point out that the vintners are a shower of greedy, moaning pricks, GNP is the way to go. Edited by SuperDave84 - 25 Sep 2013 at 7:19pm |

What's the price index? Bar prices or the general rpi/CPI.

Cheers
I'd look at GNP if I had the time but I can't be bothered having to convert everything again to put it on a graph etc.

Basically Total Wages in 1990 were 1467299 measured at (millions of dollars) Number of those employed were

Total wages in 1990 was thus 1,467,299,000,000. Total employment was 14,294,100.
So divide 1,467,299 by 14.294,100. That's going to give a figure of $102,650. You sure the figures you have to begin with are right? |

Yeah, it seems the annual figure I posted earlier is correct. Just over $100,000 average. That is probably right, given the number of unemployed and economically inactive people, also having regard to the fact California is a rich state.

Probably better off posting in the thick thread but anyway. On average in 2013 €1=$1.3281 Would that mean €1=€0.67?
