Answer:

125

Explanation:

Given the table:

Year

Price of Apples

Price of Oranges

2017

$2.0 per pound (Apples)

$2.00 per pound (Oranges)

2018

$1.5 per pound (Apples)

$3.00 per pound (Oranges

Consumer price index is obtained using the formular :

CPI = (Cost of market basket In current period / Cost of market basket in base period) * 100

Current period (2018):

Cost of 10 pounds of apple and 20 pounds of oranges :

($1.5 * 10) + ($3 * 20) = $15 + $60 = $75

Base year (2017)

Cost of 10 pounds of apple and 20 pounds of oranges :

($2 * 10) + ($2 * 20) = $20 + $40 = $60

Hence,

CPI = ($75 / $60) * 100

CPI = 1.25 * 100

CPI = 125

scoray [572]

Answer:

<u>Real Property </u>

Explanation:

Capital markets refer to the market which trades in long term securities whose maturity is more than an year.  The instruments traded in capital markets are usually stocks and bonds.

In private equity real estate, public and private investments are pooled together and invested in the real estate property markets. So here the underlying asset whose price fluctuates is property. If property prices soar, the investors stand to gain.

This kind of investment involves high risk but is also capable of generating a higher return as greater the risk involved, greater the return.
