2. The consumer price index is used to measure inflation over time by cataloging the price of the same basket of standard consumer goods. In the year of my birth, 1987, the consumer price index was at 113.60. By 2014, the index rose to 236.74. If I made $100,000 in 2014, what would be the equivalent salary in 1987?

3. The consumer price index has been recorded since the establishment of the Federal Reserve in 1913. Since that time, the highest annual rate of inflation ever recorded was for 1918, when the CPI rose from 12.8 to 15.1. What was that rate of inflation? (Put your answer in percentage form and round it to two decimal places (e.g. 0.9425 should be entered 94.25). Do not include a "%" symbol)

4. The consumer price index has been recorded since the establishment of the Federal Reserve in 1913. Since that time, the highest annual rate of deflation ever recorded was for 1921, when the CPI fell from 20.0 to 17.9. What was that rate of deflation?
