Answer:
(a) Real Interest Rate = -1 %
(b) Real Interest Rate = -2.4 %
Explanation:
Real Interest Rate = (1+ Nominal Interest rate)/(1+Inflation Rate) -1
(a)Real Interest Rate = (1+0.01)/(1+0.02)-1
= -1 %
(b) Real Interest Rate = (1+0.005)/(1+0.03) -1
= -2.4 %
Real Interest Rate is an interest rate that has been adjusted to remove the effects of inflation to reflect the real cost of funds to the borrower and the real yield to the lender or to an investor.
Proportional tax is what we call the tax that is set
to be fixed, regardless of what an individual’s taxable base amount is. An example
of such a tax is sales tax, which remains the same for all income levels.
Elastic.
This is
the formula for elasticity:
Elasticity
= (Quantity variation/Quantity)/(Price variation/Price)
Inelastic
demand is the one in which a variation in price doesn’t lead to an important
variation in the quantity bought by consumers. So, in the formula, numerator is
much smaller than denominator, so the fraction is lower than 1. That happens
with necessary goods (typically, food).
On the
contrary, elastic demand is the one in which a variation in the price leads to
an important variation in the quantity bought by consumers, and that means the
fraction is higher than 1. So if I sell the product at a lower price, I will
sell much more product.
Considering the formula:
R = P*Q, when demand is elastic,
I will
have much more sold quantity with just a little lower price, which leads to a higher
revenue.
