Answer: 2016 CPI is 110
Explanation:
Given the following :
Base year = 2012
Cost of basket in 2012 = $50
Cost of basket in 2014 = $52
Coat of basket in 2016 = $55
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is calculated using the formula :
CPI = (weighted cost item in current period / weighted cost of item in base period) × 100
Base period / year = 2012
Current period = 2016
Therefore, 2016 CPI equals;
($55 / $50) × 100
= 110

= 9%/30%
= 0.09/0.3
= 0.3
