(Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

The typical consumer's food basket in the base year 2015 is as follows: 30 chickens at $4 each 10 hams at $5 each 10 steaks at $8 each a chicken feed shortage causes the price of chickens to rise to $5.00 each in the year 2016. hams rise to $7.00 each, and the price of steaks is unchanged. a. calculate the change in the "cost-of-eating" index between 2015 and 2016. year cost of the basket 2015 $ 2016 $ instructions: enter your responses rounded to one decimal place. the official cost-of-eating index has by %. b. suppose that consumers are completely indifferent between two chickens and one ham. for this example, how large is the substitution bias in the official "cost-of-eating" index? the in the cost-of-eating index is %. the of inflation in the cost of eating reflects substitution bias.
