Answer:
$351,912.61
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
function that models the rise in the cost of a product
C = $285,700
t = 14 years
r = 1.5% = 0.015
Now,
On substituting the respective values in the given function, we get
inflation-adjusted cost in 14 years i.e C(14) = $285,700(1 + 0.015)¹⁴
or
C(14) = $285,700 × 1.2317
or
C(14) = $351,912.61

Answer:
6.78%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Total return i.e nominal rate = 15% = 0.15
Real return = 7.7% = 0.077
Now,
Inflation rate = - 1
on substituting the respective values, we get
Inflation rate = - 1
or
Inflation rate = [ 1.15 ÷ 1.077 ] - 1
or
Inflation rate = 0.0678
or
Inflation rate = 0.0678 × 100% = 6.78%
