ABOUT THE IMPOSSIBILITY THEOREM FOR INDICATORS AGGREGATIONKeywords: economic indicators , aggregate indicator , optimum aggregation , sensitive indicator , unexplosive indicator , system of indicators Abstract: This paper presents some aspects related to the issues of aggregating economic indicators. Departing from the research of Gh. Paun (1983) we will prove a theorem which states that under certain, natural assumptions, it is impossible to obtain an optimum aggregation. Unlike the original work of Paun, in this paper we are giving a rather simple proof of this theorem.
