- The total price of purchasing a basket of goods in the United Kingdom over four years is: year 1=940, year 2=970, year 3=1000, and year 4=1070. Calculate two price indices, one using year 1 as the base year (set equal to 100) and the other using year 4 as the base year (set equal to 100). Then, calculate the inflation rate based on the first price index. If you had used the other price index, would you get a different inflation rate? If you are unsure, do the calculation and find out.If, over time, wages and salaries on average rise at least as fast as inflation, why do people worry about how inflation affects incomes?u are considering the choice between investing $50,000 in a conventional 1-year bank CD offering an interest rate of 5% and a 1-year Inflation-Plus CD offering 1.5% per year plus the rate of inflation. Which is the safer investment? Can you tell which offers the higher expected return? If you expect the rate of inflation to be 3% over the next year, which is the better investment? Why? If we observe a risk-free nominal interest rate of 5% per year and a risk-free real rate of 1.5% on inflation-indexed bonds, can we infer that the market's expected rate of inflation is 3.5% per year？
