If the level of predominant prices at Berlin be taken as 100, the level at
Elberfeld is represented by 105 in the case of meat and of other food, while coal
is represented by 86, the figure for prices as a whole being 102. Combining this
with the index number for rent, the resulting figure is 93, as compared with
Berlin = 100.
