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.

Giving the following information:
Breakmorning Corporation produces a product that requires 2.6 pounds of materials per unit. The allowance for waste is 0.3 pounds; the allowance for spoilage is 0.1 pounds. The purchase price is $4 per pound, but a 2% discount is always taken. Freight costs are $0.15 per pound and receiving and handling costs are $0.10 per pound.
Purchase price= 4*0.98= 3.92
Allowance for waste= (0.03*3.92)= 0.1176
Allowance for spoilage= (0.01*3.92)= 0.0392
Freight= 0.15
Receiving and handling= 0.10
Total= $4.33
