Explanation:
Considering all the situations given in the options, the <u>borrower</u> is best in situation <u>a</u> and <u>lender</u> is best off in situation in <u>c</u>.
<u>Part a </u>
Real Interest rate = Nominal Interest rate - Inflation rate = 14 - 17 = -3 per cent. Thus, the purchasing power of money has fallen and the person has to pay back money with little purchasing power as compared to the value of the purchasing power at the time he borrowed money. Thus, borrowers are best off.Thus, <u>borrower</u> is best off when the inflation rate is very high.
<u>Part c</u>
Inflation rate is negative, thus the purchasing power of money will increase and lenders will get back money with higher purchasing power as compared to the value of the purchasing power of money at the time he lend the money. Thus, <u>lender </u>is best off when inflation rate is lowest.

COGS= $680500
Explanation:
The cost of goods sold refers to the direct costs attributable to the production of the goods sold in a company. This amount includes the cost of the materials used in creating the goods along with the direct labor costs used to produce the goods. It excludes indirect expenses, such as distribution costs and sales force costs.
COGS=Beginning Inventory+Production during period−Ending Inventory
We need to calculate the production during the period.
Cost of manufactured period= Beginning work in progress inventory+ direct materials + direct labor + factory overhead - ending work in progress
Cost of manufactured period= 118,500+ 298,500 + 132,000 + 264,000 - 125,900 =$687,100
COGS= 232,100 + 687,100 - 238,700=$680500
Answer: The correct option is B. an increase in quantity supplied of laptops.
Explanation: Supply is the amount of goods and services that a given firm is willing and able to sell to the market, at a given price and at a given point in time.

- Price
- Cost of Production
- Technology
- Transport Conditions
- Government's Policies
- Prices of Related Goods, and so on.
In the scenario given in the question above, if an improved technology is being used to manufacture laptops, this will cause production costs to decrease, and cause output level to increase, thereby leading to a lower price of the laptops.
At this price, consumers will demand more of the laptops, and an increase in demand will definitely lead to an increase in the quantity of laptops that will be supplied to the market.
