Answer:

The question is missing the below details:

inflation rate of Zero % = real rate of 6%

inflation rate of 2.8% = real rate of 3.2%

inflation rate of 5.8% = real rate of 0.2%

Explanation:

The interest rate consists of both the real rate of return and the inflation rate- return meant to compensate investors the prevalent rate of return in the economy.

Nominal rate=real rate+Inflation rate

real rate=nominal rate-inflation rate

at inflation rate of 0

real rate =6%-0

real rate -6%

at inflation rate 2.8%

real rate=6%-2.8%

real rate=3.2%

at inflation rate of 5.8%

real rate=6%-5.8%

real rate=0.2%

The competitive firm's demand curve is: a. unit elastic over the relevant range of output. b. perfectly elastic over the relevan
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

perfectly elastic over the relevant range of output.

Explanation:

In a perfect competition there are many firms in the market selling goods that are usually homogeneous in nature. Each individual firm will not be able to influence the price for which it offers goods and services to the customer.

The firm's are price takers and there is no barrier to entry.

This results in a situation where for all levels of quantity demanded there is no change in price, and demand curve is a horizontal line.

djyliett [7]

  • Purchasing power of any good or service is generally reflected by the purchasing or buying capacity of that good or service with the amount of money that a consumer or buyer has at his or her disposal.
  • As the price of any good or service decreases,it becomes cheaper to the consumer,again everything else considering constant.In other words,it increases the purchasing power or capacity of the consumers or buyers.Therefore,the typical consumer or buyer will prefer or demand more of that particular good or service thereby,increasing its quantity demanded due to a price reduction.
