Comparing salaries from different times

Consider golfers who led the Professional Golfers’ Association of America (PGA) in winnings at different points in time. Note that the winnings are nominal figures (unadjusted for inflation).

To convert the original earnings of Casper, Watson, and Stadler, use the formula for converting dollar figures from an earlier era into year 2009 U. S. dollars. Using those figures, fill in the following table, making sure to round your responses to the nearest U. S. dollar.

Year Golfer Nominal Winnings U. S. CPI Winnings in 2009 Dollars

1982 Craig Stadler 446,462 96.5
2009 Tiger Woods 10,508,163 214.5 10,508,163
