Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'price' (cost) modifies 'index' (a numeric indicator), so 'price index' straightforwardly denotes an index measuring prices or price changes. This noun–noun construction is common cross-linguistically and follows standard English compounding patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can infer the meaning.
Etymology
Price index comes from the idea of price (what you pay) plus index (a single number or list that points to change). So a price index is like a simple score that tells you about 'changes in prices' over time.
