  • In our last video we learned how to calculate a consumer price index using price data over three years. In this video we'll use the CPIs to calculate the rate of inflation.

    When inflation decreased...does it mean it dropped from 28% or we just use -4.5% and leave it at that..

      That was nominal inflation, for real one you have to use the base year c. P. I.

    For the IB econ exam, if there is a question on evaluation government responses to the overuse of common access resources, which responses would you talk about?
    licensing, allocation of property rights, tradable permits, taxes?
    and is air considered a common access resource ?
    evaluation responses like the allocation of property rights seems quite tricky to me, do you have any advice or resources?

    My professor gave my class this, WHAT IS 2015!!! so mad!! Bellow I will post the original question that links to this one --> Calculate inflation rate between 2014 and 2016. Show your calculations. Round the answers to 2 decimal points. Show the unit of account of your answers.
    Original Problem: Consider an economy that produces three products: fish tacos, wine and baseball hats. The cost of market basket in 2012 was $56,240. The cost of market basket in 2014 was $61,225. The cost of market basket in 2016 was $69,217.5. Consider 2012 as the base year for all of your CPI calculations.
    a) Calculate CPI in 2014. Show your calculations. Round the answers to 2 decimal points. Show the unit of account of your answers.

    Oh my god, my teacher keep using different words to say "past year". Im Filipino and theres a lot of words that means "last year" but some words have meaning like "last years" or "base year". I hate this, not this video, my school.

    Love and greetings. I’m wondering if calculating CPI is the same as calculating RPI. I know that one is arithmetic while the other is geometric, ​however, I cannot find videos explaining how retail price index calculations would be different than consumer price index calculations.
