1. Given that,
Nominal interest rate=12%
Inflation rate. =7%
purchasing power to grow at rate = Nominal interest rate divided by expected inflation rate.
i.e purchasing power grow at rate of=12/7
=1.7%.
2. The real interest rate os negative when the nominal interest rate is "less than" the inflation rate.
3. If the nominal interest rate is 3% and the expected inflation rate is 1% then real interest rate is,
Real interest rate = Nominal interset rate - Inflation rate.
i.e Real Interest rate = 3%-1%
=2%.
If you lend money at a 12% nominal interest rate, but you expect inflation to be...
Assume that currently the nominal interest rate is 5% and people expect the rate of price inflation for the next year to be 3%. Additionally, the price level today is P-100. A lender lends $100,000 for a year to a borrower. If instead he spent the money today, he would be able to buy units of goods and services. The borrower will pay to the lender next year., With that amount of back units of goods noney, the lender will...
You lent $370 to a friend for one year at a nominal rate of interest of 3 percent. Inflation during that year was 2 percent.

Agree or disagree? 75 word reply A nominal interest rate measures the change in dollar amounts. It is quoted on bonds and loans. Nominal interest rate is simple; for example, if you borrow $1000 at a 5% interest rate, you can expect to pay $50 in interest without taking inflation into account. The con of using the nominal interest rate is the fact that it does not adjust for the inflation rate. Whereas a real interest rate does take inflation...
