It means to say that the demand of the product is decreasing.  The relationship between the price and demand is one way. It means to say that if the price increases, the demand is higher. In this scenario, the price increases to avoid shortage on the product. If the price is decreasing, it means to say that the demand is decreasing and can possibly cause surplus on the said product. Lowering the price allows consumers to have higher purchasing power and enticing them to purchase such product.

One bank offers a 2% variable rate loan, while a competitor offers a 3% fixed rate loan over the same period. It is likely bette
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The problem with variable rates is that they vary, i.e., they might unexpectedly increase and the increase might be pretty significant. One of the main factors leading to the Great Recession was the housing bubble and the increase in mortgage interest rates. Normally, interest rates tend to increase, they might sometimes decrease, but generally they only go up and up.

Even though the fixed interest rate might be higher, it will not change and that  guarantees that you will always pay the same amount and that you can prepare your personal budget to cover it.

The consumer price index (CPI) can be used to measure inflation. There are potential problems with this process though that can
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

a. Overstates Inflation.

In the case of Mary and Bob, the CPI would have already increased but in this case the price of the minivan increased as well. This will overstate inflation because it will not measure the general rise in price alone (inflation), it will also measure the rise in price as a result of the new minivan having better features.

b. Understated Inflation

Donna's case represents an understated inflation because the quantity shrank yet the price stayed the same. This means that the price is now buying less quantity than it used to which is inflation because more dollars are now required to buy the previous amount. This was not however recorded as there was no change in price.

c. Overstates Inflation

In the case of Zach, the inflation will be overstated because Zach is no longer buying bagels and is now buying muffins so continuing to use bagels as a representative good in the basket of goods used to calculate CPI would be overstating it.

d. Accurate representation of Inflation

In Chris's case, the increase in the price of the same shoe over the years has been because of a general rise in prices and not because it is a different model. It is the same shoe and its price is rising generally so this is an accurate depiction of inflation.
