Jacob’s grandfather died on 1 November 2009 and, in her will, left Jacob cash and watches worth $500,000. The watches had been bought by Jacob’s grandmother in August 1985 at a cost of $40,000, and its market value on 1 November 2009 was $150,000.

Jacob used the money from his grandfather and his savings to buy the following assets in January 2010:

  • an apartment in Melbourne (cost was $360,000 plus $20,000 legal fees and stamp duty),
  • a rare painting (cost was $50,000), and
  • 2,000 bank shares (cost was $20 per share, plus $200 brokerage).

In 2019/20, Jacob disposed of these assets as follows:

  • on 12 March 2020, he sold the apartment for $470,000 – he had lived in it all the time he owned it,
  • on 1 April 2020, the painting was stolen from his apartment – he received $30,000 compensation from his insurance company,
  • on 13 May 2020, Jacob sold 1000 bank shares for $30 per share (brokerage cost $150), and
  • on 15 June 2020, he lost the watches, which wasn’t insured, when he left his briefcase on a train.

3. The classical dichotomy and the neutrality of money

The classical dichotomy is the separation of real and nominal variables. The following questions test your understanding of this distinction.

Amy spends all of her money on paperback novels and mandarins. In 2015, she earned $18.00 per hour, the price of a paperback novel was $9.00, and the price of a mandarin was $1.00.

Which of the following give the nominal value of a variable? Check all that apply.

Amy's wage is 2 paperback novels per hour in 2015.

Amy's wage is $18.00 per hour in 2015.

The price of a mandarin is $1.00 in 2015.

Which of the following give the real value of a variable? Check all that apply.

Amy's wage is $18.00 per hour in 2015.

Amy's wage is 18 mandarins per hour in 2015.

The price of a paperback novel is 9 mandarins in 2015.

Suppose that the Fed sharply increases the money supply between 2015 and 2020. In 2020, Amy's wage has risen to $36.00 per hour. The price of a paperback novel is $18.00 and the price of a mandarin is $2.00.

In 2020, the relative price of a paperback novel is   .

Between 2015 and 2020, the nominal value of Amy's wage   , and the real value of her wage   .

During 2020 credit sales were $2,100,000 and cash collections from customers were $3,700,000. The allowance method is used to account for uncollectible accounts.
