Sunk cost are always irrelevant when making current decisions.

Sunk cost is the cost that has already been incurred and cannot be recovered. Sunk cost should not be considered when making future economic decisions.

An example of sunk cost: A farmer buys a piece of land for $100,000. He plants on the land. Years later, the land becomes infertile. The farmer is considering selling the land. In this question, the cost of the land is sunk cost. The sunk cost is $100,000. The farmer should not consider this cost when determining if to sell the land or not.

The consumer price index (CPI) can be used to measure inflation. There are potential problems with this process though that can
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

a. Overstates Inflation.

In the case of Mary and Bob, the CPI would have already increased but in this case the price of the minivan increased as well. This will overstate inflation because it will not measure the general rise in price alone (inflation), it will also measure the rise in price as a result of the new minivan having better features.

b. Understated Inflation

Donna's case represents an understated inflation because the quantity shrank yet the price stayed the same. This means that the price is now buying less quantity than it used to which is inflation because more dollars are now required to buy the previous amount. This was not however recorded as there was no change in price.

c. Overstates Inflation

In the case of Zach, the inflation will be overstated because Zach is no longer buying bagels and is now buying muffins so continuing to use bagels as a representative good in the basket of goods used to calculate CPI would be overstating it.

d. Accurate representation of Inflation

In Chris's case, the increase in the price of the same shoe over the years has been because of a general rise in prices and not because it is a different model. It is the same shoe and its price is rising generally so this is an accurate depiction of inflation.
