Answer:

Year Ended December 31            Inventory at Current-Year Cost     Price Index

2019                                                        $20,000                                     100

2020                                                       $22,464                                      108

2021                                                        $26,334                                       114

Inventory at base year prices:

2020 = $20,800

2021 = $23,100

Change from prior yer:

2020 = $800

2021 = $2,300

Dollar value:

2020 = $20,000 + ($800 x 1.08) = $20,864

2021 = $20,864 + (2,300 x 1.14) = $23,486
