Answer:

1) False

when the inflation is lower than expected, the real interest rate will be higher, since

real interest rate = Nominal interest rate - inflation.

2) Gains

In case of unexpected lower inflation the lender gains and the borrower loses.This is because real value of the loan increases due to lower inflation.

3) Loses

In case of unexpected lower inflation the lender gains and the borrower loses.This is because real value of the loan increases due to lower inflation.

Answer: The real interest rates are lower than expected, the lender loses from the unexpected lower inflation and the borrower gains under these circumstances.

Five hundred units of good x are currently bought and sold. The marginal buyer is willing to pay $40 for the 500th unit, and the
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

D : All options are correct

Explanation:

- The marginal buyer is the essence of demand curve while marginal seller is essence of supply curve.

- @ Q = 500 units,    Selling Price is set at SP = $35

- @ Q = 500 units,    Buying Price is set at BP = $40

- Since, SP ≠ BP our equilibrium price would be $ 37.5 assuming the price elasticity of demand and supply are equal. In any case the equilibrium price would lie in between [ 35 , 40 ] such that to prevent a shortage of units in near future.

- Moreover, if the seller decides to sell at price $35 then he must sell goods greater than 500 units to reach the equilibrium profits. However, it could also lead to excess of units or surplus.

- We see that from selling the goods at SP = $35 while the buyer is willing to pay BP = $40 for 500 goods, the seller would be under-profiting and would be earning $5*500 = $2,500 less than he would at equilibrium price of $40 and selling units greater than 500. Hence, 500 goods is not an efficient quantity of goods.
