Answer:

c)Mary is glad she borrowed the funds because her real interest rate has fallen.

Explanation:

Real interest rate = nominal interest rate - inflation rate

=8% - 6% = 2%

Mary is willing to pay a real interest rate of 3% but she pays 2%. Her consumer surplus is 1%

Joe is willing to accept 3% but receives 2% in the end. Therefore, he doesn't earn a producer surplus.

I hope my answer helps you
