Abstract
Aiming at the problems existing in the Ningbo Road Container Transport Freight Index, targeted improvement methods are proposed from the aspects of calculation methods, weight settings, etc. In terms of index calculation method: the original simple synthesis method has been changed to the internationally accepted Laspeyres chain index calculation method. In terms of weight setting, the subcategory index adopts turnover as the weight, and the comprehensive index adopts the equal weight method of two category indices. Finally, the correlation coefficient method is used to analyze the correlation between the Ningbo Container Transport Price Comprehensive Index and the road container market, as well as macroeconomic situation in Ningbo.
