摘要：
This paper discusses several methods for approximating a cost-of-living index that are based on knowledge of the demand functions. Centered around a recently discovered article by Malmquist, it discusses the mean of over- and undercompensation, Frisch's Double Expenditure method, and some proposals of Vartia.
