If the CPI increased by 8.3%, therefore this means that there was a fractional increase of 0.083. So amount increased is:

 

CPI increase = 141 * 0.083 = 11.703

 

Therefore the end of year CPI is the sum of the original and the increase:

 

end of year CPI = 141 + 11.703 = 152.703

 

Answer:

152.703
