Adjustment of dollar amounts
WUCIOA's inflation adjuster. The dollar amounts in RCW 64.90.360(4) (plat and miscellaneous community exemption), RCW 64.90.530(2) (the $100,000 audit trigger), and RCW 64.90.640(2) (resale certificate fees), and any amount a declaration states under 64.90.360(4) or 64.90.640(2), change on July 1 of a year in which the CPI for urban wage earners and clerical workers (1967 = 100; December 1979 index of 230 as the reference base) has moved 10 percent or more against the base, in multiples of 10 percent of the amount printed in the chapter on July 1, 2018, and never below that amount. Amended by 2024 c 321 §302 and 2026 c 96 §7. The state publishes no adjusted schedule; the corpus carries the statutory face amounts and cites this section from each threshold it governs.

| (1) | The audit trigger, the resale certificate fee figures, and the small-community exemption in WUCIOA are not fixed dollar amounts — they move with a federal inflation index measured from December 1979. |
| (2) | When the index moves enough, the dollar figures step up on July 1 in round 10 percent increments. They never step down below what the statute said in 2018. |
