Answer:
$1,667
Explanation:
Given that,
Savings account at the beginning of the year = $2,000
Price level at the beginning of the year = 100
Price level at the end of the year = 120
Price level increases from 100 to 120
Therefore, what was worth $120 earlier, is not worth only $100.
Hence, $120 at the beginning of the year is worth = $100 at the end of the year
$1 at the beginning of the year is worth = ($100 ÷ $120) at the end of the year
Savings of $2,000 at the beginning of the year is worth:
= ($100 ÷ $120) × $2,000
= 0.833 × $2,000
= $1,667
Therefore, the real value of the savings is $1,667.
