New Zealand's government has increased its spending this year, leading to a growing budget deficit.

At the same time, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (New Zealand's central bank) said it would continue to try to stimulate the economy. This stimulus is likely to lead to rising prices for consumer goods, even as the prices of producer goods remain low.

1.How should we expect inflation as measured by CPI and as measured by the GDP deflator to compare to each other in the future in New Zealand? Why?  

2.Inflation in New Zealand is expected to pick back up in the near future.

How will this inflation affect the economy? Your answer should discuss costs, benefits, winners, and losers from this inflation.

Cash dividends for the store of $710 thousand are declared during the third month of each quarter and are paid during the first month of the following quarter. Operating expenses, except insurance, rent, and depreciation are paid as incurred. The prepaid insurance is for five more months. Cost of goods sold is equal to 60% of sales. Ending inventories are sufficient for 150% of the next month’s cost of sales. Purchases during any given month are paid in full during the following month. Cash sales account for 50% of the revenue. Of the credit sales, 60% are collected in the next month and 40% are collected in the month after. Money can be borrowed and repaid in multiples of $100 thousand at an interest rate of 12% per year. The company desires a minimum cash balance of $2 million on the first of each month. At the time the principal is repaid, interest is paid on the portion of principal that is repaid. All borrowing is at the beginning of the month, and all repayment is at the end of the month. Money is never repaid at the end of the month it is borrowed.
