Answer:

The answer is: C) the values of the current market basket at current and base-year prices need to be known.

Explanation:

The consumer price index (CPI) is calculated by dividing the current price of a basket of goods by the price of the same basket of goods in the base year. Then you multiply the ratio by 100. The CPI measures the average change of prices over time for a basket of goods.
