Suppose you know that cumulative inflation for the period 1926 2010 was 12.34. You also know that the geometric mean for Treasury bills for this period was 3.6 percent. What was the real return for Treasury bills for the period 1926 201

Consider a labor market where the matching function UV is given by H (U, V) = A, where A = 0.5. U+V There are U = 3 job seekers and V = 6 job openings. The probability for a job seeker to find a job in a given period of time is Round your answers to 2 decimal places (for example, 3.454 should be rounded down to 3.45, and 3.455 should be rounded up to 3.46). 1

Suppose, in the base year, a typical market basket purchased by an urban family costs $250.  In Year 1, the same market basket cost $950.  What is the consumer price index (CPI) for Year 1? If the same market basket costs $1000 in Year 2, what is the CPI for Year 2? What was the Year 2 rate of inflation?

Use the information in the table to calculate the %change in prices (inflation rate), using a chain-weighted methodology. Q1=2 Q2=3 Year (t) P1 E1 P2 E2 E(t) 2017 $1.05 $2.00 2018 $1.10 $2.10 2019 $1.10 $2.15 2020 $1.15 $2.15 Price Index Inflation Rate 2017 2018 2019 2020 Question 1: What is the inflation rate for 2019? a) 1.76% b) 1.16% c) -0.60% d) -3.02

Assume that this economy produces only two goods Good X and Good Y. If year 2 is the base year, the value for this economy's GDP deflator in year 3 is:   A-              = 120 B-               = 123   C-              =  135    D-      = 140     Assume that this economy produces only two goods Good X and Good Y. If year 2 is the base year, the value for this economy's inflation rate between year 2 and year 3 is: A-              = 1,8 ./. B-               = 1,2./.   C-              =    1,65 ./. D-      =2./.

The following table shows the average nominal interest rates on six-month Treasury bills between 2014 and 2018, which determined the nominal interest rate that the U.S. government paid when it issued debt in those years. The table also shows the inflation rate for the years 2014 to 2018. (All rates are rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent.)   Year      Nominal Interest Rate      Inflation Rate                  (Percent)                   (Percent) 2014           0.1                         1. 6 2015         0.2                            0.1  2016          0.5                          1.3 2017          1.1                         2.1 2018         2.1                           2.4       On the following graph, use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the nominal interest rates for the years 2014 to 2018. Next, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the real interest rates for those years.     According to the table, in which year did buyers of six-month Treasury…

Calculate what will be the nominal interest rate at any given loan if the inflation is 3.2% and the real interest rate is 0.8 %

The consumer price index (CPI) of a country was approximately 200 at the beginning of year 2010. If inflation continued at an average rate of 2.5%, what would the index be at the beginning of year 2021?

Suppose, you are planning to put away $20,000 of your savings for one year. You have the following options: 1.) Buy an indexed savings bond that earns 6.50% interest rate for the next year or, 2.) Buy a non-indexed savings bond that earns 11.00% interest rate for the next year. The inflation rate for the next year is expected to be 4.50%. Which option will you choose for the next year? OA. The non-indexed bond should be chosen as it pays a higher rate of interest. OB. The rate of inflation should not play a role in making this decision. OC. It does not matter whether the indexed or the non-indexed bonds are chosen, since they pay the same real rate of interest. D. The indexed bond option should be chosen as it protects from inflation.
