Home loan amount = $165,000
Estimated closing costs = $6,187.50
% of estimated closing cost = ?
$165,000 * x% = $6,187.50
x% = $6,187.50 ÷ $165,000
x% = 0.0375
x = 0.0375 x 100 = 3.75
Therefore, estimated closing costs = 3.75% of loan amount = 3.75% of $165,000
Actual closing costs = 3.5% of loan amount = 3.5% of $165,000 = $5775
Difference in estimated and actual closing cost percent = 3.75% - 3.5% = 0.25%
The closing costs were lower than the estimate by 0.25%
<span>The correct answer should be D. Negative punishment.</span>
Answer:
19%
Explanation:
Given that,
Nominal GDP in 2010 = $200 billion
Nominal GDP in 2009 = $180 billion
GDP deflator in 2010 = 125
GDP deflator in 2009 = 105
Percentage change in prices:
= Percentage change in GDP deflator
= (Change in GDP deflator ÷ GDP deflator in 2009) × 100
= [(125 - 105) ÷ 105] × 100
= (20 ÷ 105) × 100
= 0.19 × 100
= 19%
Therefore, the prices increases by 19%.
