The Marshall-Edgeworth index, credited to Marshall (1887) and Edgeworth (1925), [11] is a weighted relative of current period to base period sets of prices. This index uses the arithmetic average of the current and based period quantities for weighting. It is considered a pseudo-superlative formula and is symmetric. [12]
A price index (plural: "price indices" or "price indexes") is a normalized average (typically a weighted average) of price relatives for a given class of goods or services in a given region, during a given interval of time.
A cost-of-living index is a conceptual measurement goal, however, not a straightforward alternative to the CPI. A cost-of-living index would measure changes over time in the amount that consumers need to spend to reach a certain utility level or standard of living.

This document serves as technical documentation for implementing the measures for content gaps (the non-technical aspects related to, e.g., feedback from the community will be covered in detail in another document).
The new measure, called a "superlative" index, is designed to be a closer approximation to a "cost-of-living" index than the other measures.

Raw materials, products and energy prices, labor and construction costs change at different rates, and plant construction cost indexes are actually a ...
