Answer:

CPI = 105.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as

Basket of goods costs for first year = $88

Basket of goods costs for second year = $90

Now , Cost Price Index (CPI) (T)= [tex]\frac{cost of market basket (T)}{cost of market basket (b)} times 100[/tex]

Or , CPI (T)= [tex]\frac{90}{85} times 100[/tex]

∴ CPI (T) = 105.88      Answer
