Answer:

W = $27.34

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage Decline in average income is = 2%

CPI in 1990 1.30

CPI in 2000 is 1.69

Average nominal wage is 2000 is $35

Inflation rate is given as

Inflation rate = % Change in CPI

                    = (1.69 / 1.3) - 1

                    = 1.3 - 1 = 0.3 = 30%

Real wage = Nominal wage / Price level,  hence

Percentage change in real wage = % Change in (nominal wage - inflation rate)

-2% = % Change in nominal wage - 30%

% Change in nominal wage = 28%

let nominal wage in 1990 is w

W\times 1.28% = $35

solving for W = $27.34
