Suppose the price of corn rises from $30 in January to $32 in February to $32.7 in March. What is the March inflation rate

1 answer:

3 0

The inflation rate formula is ( CPI2 - CPI1 )
      -------------------- x100
      CPI1
CPI2 = Price of the latter date
CPI1 = Price of the earlier date

So the latter price is $32.7 and the earlier is $32 (I'm assuming you mean the inflation from January to February)

Then plug in the numbers ( 32.7 - 32 )
      ---------------- x100
   32
32.7 - 32 = .7/32 = .021875 x 100 = 2.1875

Which means the answer would be if you round 2.2%
