Answer:

CPI (n) = 234.1 x 1.023ⁿ

Explanation:

Let P be an exponential function of n (time) with a base a:

Consumer price index = P₀ x aⁿ

where

P₀ is the CPI when n = 0, P₀ = 234.1

a = 1 + r (rate of increase) = 1 + 2.3% = 1 + 0.023 = 1.023

the CPI will increase as n increases

CPI (n) = P₀ x aⁿ = 234.1 x 1.023ⁿ
