Goods differ in their importance in the average consumer's budget. If the price of the market basket of goods in the base year of 2009 was €20,000 and the price of the same basket had risen to €22,000 by 2010, the CPI for 2010 Is 110. Factors that cause the CPI to exaggerate the inflation rate do NOT include Political pressure from unions and retirees on the providers of a country's official statistics to overstate the inflation rate.
