    40,000; 48100; 46000; 53000

    Explanation:

    Year Current (A) Cost Index (B) base amount (A/B) change from prior year

    2018 $40,000 1.00 40000 0

    2019 56,100 1.20 46750 6750

    2020 58,500 1.30 45000 (1750)

    2021 70,000 1.40 50000 5000

    Year 2018 = $40,000

    Year 2019:

    $40000 * 1.00 = $40,000

    $6750 * 1.20 = 8100

    $40,000 + 8100 = $48100

    Year 2020:

    $40000 * 1.00 = $40,000

    ($6750 - $1,750 = $5000) * 1.20 = $6,000

    40000 + 6000 = $46000

    Year 2021:

    $40,000 * 1.00 = $40,000

    ($6750 - $1750 = $5000) * 1.20 = $6000

    $5000 * 1.40 = $7000

    40000 + 6000 + 7000 = $53000
