Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics - Challenge #2:

• Create a personalized Cost Of Living Index calculator The Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics gathers data that allows the San Juan Metro Area to participate in the Cost-of-Living Index (COLI) of the Council for Community and Economic Research (C2ER). COLI is prepared using prices from a selected group of 57 specific products. The results are shared with users through a “COLI calculator”; see for example here. These products were chosen many years ago to be representative of the consumption of middle-to-upper class professional households. However, not every individual will choose to buy all 57 specific products. Therefore, there is an interest to be able to allow the data user to select which categories are of interest to their particular circumstances. In this challenge, teams will develop a COLI calculator that allows individuals to select which of the 57 categories are relevant to their circumstances, the app will calculate the resulting COLI index and allow the user to determine their comparable salary in one of the other almost 300 regions where COLI is calculated.
