Abstract: Abstract In Chapter 3 we introduced the stochastic approach and showed how this approach can be used to derive Laspeyres, Paasche and Theil-Tornqvist (TT) index numbers and their standard errors. In the last three chapter we used these index numbers to measure changes in prices within a time-series context. In this chapter we demonstrate the use of the stochastic approach in deriving index numbers formulae for multilateral spatial comparisons.
