Answer:

(a) Real Interest Rate   = -1 %

(b) Real Interest Rate   = -2.4 %

Explanation:

Real Interest Rate = (1+ Nominal Interest rate)/(1+Inflation Rate) -1

 (a)Real Interest Rate = (1+0.01)/(1+0.02)-1

                                    = -1 %

 (b) Real Interest Rate = (1+0.005)/(1+0.03) -1

                                      = -2.4 %

Real Interest Rate is an interest rate that has been adjusted to remove the effects of inflation to reflect the real cost of funds to the borrower and the real yield to the lender or to an investor.

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Option (a) and (c) are correct.

Explanation:

We know that rent control is an example of price ceiling. If the price of apartments set below the equilibrium price level then there is increase in the demand for apartments. So, the demand for apartments exceeds quantity supplied at the prevailing market price.

(a) Therefore, the quality of rental housing falls because of the lower price of the apartment. As this will become less profitable for the landlords, so they are least interested in the maintenance of the apartments.

(b) This will also lead to develop black market. The landlords are trying to fool the higher authorities and rent their apartments at a higher cost because this will be done without any type of legal documentation of the apartments or results from the manipulation of the rules.

Annette [7]

Answer:

The  The number of sweatshirts the company would need to sell to earn a target profit of $1,710 is closest to <u>570</u> sweatshirts.

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Selling price per unit = $15

Total cost price per unit = Average unit cost + Sales commission per unit = $7 + $5 = $12

Profit per unit = Selling price per unit - Total cost price per unit = $15 - $12 = $3

Target profit = $1,710

Number of sweatshirts to sell to earn a target profit = Target profit / Profit per unit = $1,710 / 3 = 570
