1) a) Compare the cost of an ordinary seat to the cost of a premium seat in 2003. You need to decide which comparison is the most informative. Consider absolute and relative change, perhaps with percentages. (b) Compare the cost of an ordinary seat to the cost of a premium seat in 2008. (c) Use your calculations to make a statement about the cost of ordinary seats compared to premium seats between 2003 and 2008.
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is used to measure prices relative to some base price. The Bureau of Labor Statistics maintains the index which measures prices relative to the years 1982 to 1984. The base CPI is 100 and corresponds to average prices in 1982 to 1984. Suppose the CPI for new vehicles in November 2018 was 145.025. This means that prices for new vehicles in November 2018 were 145.025% of what they were in 1982 to 1984. a) Suppose in 1984, the list price of a new Toyota Corolla was $9,129.00. Using the CPI, what would be the price of a new Toyota Corolla in November 2018? Round to the nearest cent. b) Suppose in November 2018, the list price on a base model of the Toyota Tacoma was $26,700.00. Using CPI, find the list price of a new Tacoma in 1984. Round to the nearest cent.

In a move to provide additional sales for U.S. car manufacturers the White House announced the purchase of 17,600 new fuel efficient vehicles for the federal fleet. Suppose the new fleet which includes 2,500 hybrid sedans will cost 265 million. As an accountant in the White House Budget Office you have asked to calculate the following: A. If each hybrid vehicle will have an average cost of 26,000, what will be the cost per non hybrid vehicle? Round to the nearest whole dollar. B. Suppose furthermore the White House said that by replacing less efficient vehicles the government will reduce gasoline consumption by 1.6 million gallons per year and prevent 23 million pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere. On average how many gallons of gasoline and how many pounds of carbon dioxide will be saved per year per vehicle? Round to the nearest whole gallon and whole pound
