Answer:
- <em><u>The CPI for the current year is 104.49 </u></em>
<em><u /></em>
Explanation:
A) Expenditure breakdown of the base year:
You must check that they add 100%
- Food and beverages: 17.8%
- Other goods, and services: 5.8%
Total: 17.8 + 42.8 + 6.3 + 17.2 + 5.7 + 4.4 + 5.8 = 100
Thus, the CPI of the base year is 100.
<u>B. Expenditure breakdown of the current year.</u>
Calculate the changes by adding the percent of increase to each item tha has changed.
1. <u>The prices of food and beverages have increased by 10 percent</u>:
2.<u> The price of housing has increased by 5 percent</u>:
3. <u>The price of medical care has increased by 10 percent</u>:
The other prices are unchanged.
Then, the new breakdown is:
- Food and beverages: 19.58%
- Other goods, and services: 5.8%
Of course the new total is not 100%.
- 19.58 + 44.94 + 6.3 + 17.2 + 6.27 + 4.4 + 5.8 = 104.49
That means that the price of the total basket of products has increased from 100 to 104.49.
Thus, <u>the CPI of the current year is 104.49 ← answer</u>

Explanation:
<u>Assumption</u>: <u>Since the question is incomplete, with the available information it has been construed that calculation of bond price is required and the question has been solved accordingl</u>y.
The price of a bond is the present value of future cash receipts it generates to the investor in the form of interest stream and principal stream.

wherein,
= price of bond as on today
i = annual coupon payments
ytm= investor's expectation of interest or market rate of interest on similar bonds
RV = Redemption value of such bonds assumed to be the face value
n = term to maturity

12.46221 × 22,500 + 0.376889 × 22,500 = 280,399.725 + 188444.5
$468,844 approx
This is the present value of the bond which is lower than it's face value because market rate of return of similar bonds is higher than the coupon rate of payment by Westside Corporation.
