(A) Cost of market basket in 2009 = $(0.12)(4)+ $(0.21)(2) + $(0.50)(1) = $(0.48 + 0.42 +0.50)= $ 1.40
CPI in 2009 = (cost of market basket in 2009/ cost of market basket in base year) 100= $(1.40/1.30)100= 107.69
Cost of market basket in 2010 = $(0.12)(4) +$(0.21)(2) + $(0.54)(1) = $(0.48 + 0.42 + 0.54) =$1.44
CPI in 2010 = (Cost of market basket in 2010/ cost of market basket in base year) 100 = $(1.44/1.30)100= 110.77
Cost of market basket in 2011 = $(0.13)(4) +$(0.21)(2) + $(0.54)(1) = $(0.52 +0.42 +0.54) = $1.48
CPI in 2011 = (cost of market basket in 2011/ cost of market basket in base year) 100= $(1.48/1.30)100 = 113.85
(B) Inflation rate in 2009 = [(CPI in 2009 -CPI in 2008)/ CPI in 2008 ] 100 = [(107.69-100/ 100] 100= 7.69%
Inflation rate in 2010 = [(CPI in 2010- CPI in 2009) /CPI in 2009] 100 = [(110.77-107.69)/ 107.69 ] 100 = 2.86%
Inflation rate in 2011 =[(CPI in 2011- CPI in 2010)/ CPI in 2010] 100 = [(113.85- 110.77)/ 110.77] 100= 2.78%

Because the shape of the term structure of interest rates is often used to predict future macroeconomic conditions as wells as the course of future short-term interest rates, your presentation will consist of thefollowing:-Plot the yield curve for each year between 2006 – 2020 and display these data on one graph.-For each year indicate...
Using data from the Southwest case, create a chart that plots the relationship between each airline’s market share, in terms of revenue or airline seat miles flown, and its profitability for two periods: 1995-2000 and 2001-2005. Does your analysis suggest that market share is correlated with profitability in this industry? If you exclude Southwest Airlines and Jet Blue airlines from the analysis (companies that use “point-to-point” route structure rather than a “hub and spoke” route structure), how well does market...
