Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

In 2020:

Amount spent for 100 heads of cauliflower = $250, each $2.50

Amount spent for 50 bunches of broccoli = $100, each  $2.00

Amount spent for 500 carrots = $250, each $0.50

In 2021:

Amount spent for 60 heads of cauliflower = $210, each $3.50

Amount spent for 90 bunches of broccoli = $180, each $2.00

Amount spent for 450 carrots = $270, each $0.60

Year     Cauliflower  Broccoli  Carrots  Basket

2020         $2.50      $2.00    $0.50     $5.00

2021          $3.50      $2.00    $0.60     $6.10

Change     $1.00       $0.00    $0.10      $1.10

CPI index = $1.10/$5.00 + 1  * 100 = 122

Inflation rate = 122 - 100 = 22%
