Steps:

1. Create new product and define base price in some currency
2. Generate variants for this product
3. Go to variants list - in this view you can see base prices copied/inherrited from base product (but the default view shows different currency then in base product)
   
4. Go to first variant and enter Prices tab - its empty

1. Click add price - no base price copied from base product (although you saw it in variants list)
   

Expected result:
Keep consistency, if we decided to inherit base price from base product in variant, then we should display it everywhere by default.
