Answer:

Annual rate of inflation = [(215.9 - 210.2) / 210.2] * 100

Annual rate of inflation = 2.7%

Real income change = Nominal income change - inflation rate

Janice Real income change = 4% – 2.7%

Janice Real income change = 1.3%

This means Janice's real income did increase by 1.3%.

Jeff Real income change = 2% – 2.7%

Jeff Real income change = -0.7%

This means Jeff's real income did decrease by 0.7%.

This is section 3.8 problem 30: a motel owner observes that when a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are
inna [77]

Answer:

see explanations

Explanation:

First, for 80 room charged at $60 per room ,all rooms are occupied

Let the demand function, expressed by p , the price in dollars charged for each room per day, as a function of x as,

p(x)=$60x ------------where x in the number of rooms

When the price per room is increased by $3, the demand function will be;

p(x)=$63x

Maintenance per room after price increase will be;

p(x)=$16x

This means: $63x -$60x=$16x

3*80 p(x)=16*80

p(x)=(16*80)/(3*80) =5.33

Due to price increase the number of rooms occupied reduced by 5 rooms to 75 rooms. Because of unoccupied rooms bringing no revenue the maintenance cost increased. The demand for room decreased.
