Consider a fictional price index, the College Student Price Index (CSPI), based on a typical college student's annual purchases. Suppose the following table shows information on the market basket for the CSPI and the prices of each of the goods in 2018, 2019, and 2020. The expenditure on each item in the market basket and the total dollar expenditure on market basket are shown for 2018. Perform these same calculations for 2019 and 2020, and enter the results in the following table.
