derive these measures are largely unsatisfactory. The axiomatic theory of indexes does not make clear which economic problem …. For example, the theory of the CPI is usually developed for a single consumer with homothetic preferences and then applied … to a large aggregate of diverse consumers with non-homothetic preferences. In this paper I develop a unitary theory that …
