Answer: The $4.05 market price
Explanation: Air-tite can buy or sell Hydrol at $4.05. If they decide to accept the order, there has to be a higher return on the use of Hydrol in the return than they would get from selling Hydrol as is.
There may also be an opportunity cost to using the product for this special order if there is an order that would yield higher returns for the use of Hydrol.
The quantity that would remain after making the special order does not have any impact on the decision making process, as they are considering just one order that requires Hydrol.
The purchase price is not relevant as they cannot purchase Hydrol at that price in the present. The total quantity is not relevant either as they have enough for the order.
Present value PV= FV(1/(1+r)^n)

Answer: False
Explanation:
The real interest rate is the nominal interest rate adjusted for inflation.
If the nominal interest rate was made with inflation in mind and this inflation is less than anticipated, the real rate will be higher not lower than expected.
For instance: Assume the nominal rate is 8% and the two parties assumed inflation would be 4%. Real rate would be:
= 8 - 4 = 4%
If inflation is instead 2%, real rate would be:
= 8 - 2 = 6%
Real rate would be higher than anticipated.
