Answer:
1.33
Explanation:
Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good A to changes in price of good B.
Cross price elasticity = percentage change in quantity demanded of good F / percentage change in price of good E
12% / 9% = 1.33

The applicable formula is;
A = P(1-r)^n
Where;
A = Final purchasing power
P = Current purchasing power
r = inflation
n = Number of years when P changes to A
Confirming the first claim:
A = 1/2P (to be confirmed)
P = $3
r = 7% = 0.07
n = 10.25 years
Using the formula;
A = 3(1-0.07)^10.25 = 3(0.475) ≈ 3(0.5) = $1.5
And therefore, A = 1/2P after 10.25 years.
Now, give;
P = $9
A = 1/4P = $9/4 = $2.25
r = 6.5% = 0.065
n = ? (nearest year).
Substituting;
2.25 = 9(1-0.065)^n
2.25/9 = (1-0.065)^n
0.25 = (1-0.065)^n
ln (0.25)= n ln(1-0.065)
-1.3863 = -0.0672n
n = (-1.3863)/(-0.0672) = 20.63 years
To nearest year;
n = 21 years
Therefore, it would take approximately 21 years fro purchasing power to reduce by 4. That is, from $9 to $2.25.
Answer:
a. 116.9 and the inflation rate was 16.9%
Explanation:
<u>Definition</u>
Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a statistical measure that is constructed using a weighted average market basket of consumer goods and services produced by a household.
CPI = (Cost of market basket ₓ / Cost of market basket ₓ₁) * 100
where x = present year(2014) and x1 = base year(2012)
CPI = (90/77) * 100
CPI = 116.88
CPI = 116.9 (to 1 decimal place)
Inflation =<u>Current year basket cost - Base year basket cost</u> * 100
Base year basket cost
Inflation = <u>90-77</u> * 100
77
Inflation = 16.88
Inflation = 16.9% ( to 1 decimal place)
