(ii) between two consecutive years
Explanation:
formula for GDP deflator is (real GDP)/(nominal GDP) x 100 which is the numerator real GDP where prices are valued at the current year adjusted to inflation or deflation and then the denominator where prices are valued at a base year where prices are valued at a nominal year which are not adjusted to any inflation or deflation.
The CPI ( consumer price index) is calculated by determining the rise or fall in price of a good or goods in two consecutive periods which in turn gives us the increase or decrease in price percentage.

Answer:
(a) 8.90%
(b) $102.04
Explanation:
(a) Market capitalization rate i.e. expected return:
= Risk free rate + Beta (Market return - Risk free rate)
= 4% + 0.70 (11% - 4%)
= 8.90%
Therefore, the market capitalization rate is 8.90%.
(b) Intrinsic value of stock:
= Expected dividend ÷ (Required return - Growth rate)
= $5 ÷ (8.90% - 4%)
= $102.04
Therefore, the intrinsic value of the stock is $102.04.
