Answer:

A.overstate; substitution

Explanation:

Consumer Price Index (CPI): is a measure that examines the weighted average of prices of consumer goods and services, such as transportation, food, and medical care. It is calculated by taking the average of the price changes for each item in the predetermined  goods. Changes in the CPI are used to assess price changes associated with the cost of living therefore the CPI is used economist for identifying periods of inflation or deflation.

when we say the CPI overstate inflation; it is because of:

Substitution bias (when the price of a product in the consumer basket increases substantially, consumers tend to substitute lower-priced alternatives; Therefore, it tends to overstate inflation due to a lack of accountability ) and;

Quality bias (over time, technological advances increase the life and usefulness of products).

The annual payment on the loan=Present value of a loan/PVIFA

r=7%; n=5

Annual payment on the loan=71500/4.100197=17438.19

OR we can use the financial calculator and input the following data:

PV = 71500; r=7%; n=5; PMT=?

PMT=17438.19

Amortization schedule:

YEAR  Beg. balance    Total PMT    Interest PMT   Principal PMT   End. Bal.

1           71500                 17438.19      5005                 12433.19          59066.81

2          59066.81           17438.19       4134.68             13303.51          45763.3

3          45763.30           17438.19       3203.43            14234.76         31528.54

4          31528.54            17438.19       2207                 15231.19           16297.35

5          16297.35             17438.19      1140.81              16297.38          0

*5005 = 71500 ×0.07

12433.19=17438.19-5005 and so on...
