Answer 1: The Correct answer is C) the average prices of goods and services decreased between last year and this year.
CPI stands for consumer Price Index. Also known as the 'basket' the index is developed by national governments to monitor the prices of basic goods and services used by the population.
This has to include basic items that the majority of population uses every day e.g. milk, chicken, electricity etc.
In this case, the CPI had decreased from 91.0 to 90.0 which means the prices fell.
Answer 2: The correct answer is A) 3.6%
The formula to calculate unemployment rate is:
No. of unemployed ÷ No. of Working People x 100
In this case, it was 9 million divided by 250 million x 100
3.6% unemployment rate is actually very less for an economy and is an indicator that the economy is doing well and creating enough jobs for most people. A high unemployment rate signals a worsening economy.

Then we adjust for the change in working capital which are the incrase and decrease in the current assets and liabilities account
Increase in asset and decrease in liabilities represent cash outflow
while the opposite is true when an asset decrease(convert to cash) or a liablity increase (delay of the payment)

If the company enters into an agreement with a winery in Spain to purchase all the red wine the winery produces, this would be a: output contract
<h3><u>
Explanation:</u></h3>
An output contract is an arbitration where one party consents to acquire the complete product that the other party accumulates. Thus, the consumer will obtain all the 'output' the trader executes.
Output contracts can be valuable to consumers when there is conjecture about market supply or demand for a distinct good. Output contracts attend the sale of goods, these sorts of contracts are directed by the Uniform Commercial Code. In the fact of output contracts, the U.C.C. claims that both parties to the contract act in real faith.
