Dalia deposits $4,000 into a savings account that pays an annual nominal interest rate of 5%. Assume this interest rate is fixed, and so it will not change over time. On the day she makes her deposit, suppose that a football ticket has a price of $10.00. Initially, Dalia's $4,000 deposit has a purchasing power of football tickets. For each of the annual inflation rates given in the following table, first determine the new price of a football ticket, assuming it rises at the rate of inflation. Then enter the corresponding purchasing power of Dalla's deposit after one year in the first row of the table for each inflation rate. Finally, enter the value for the real interest rate at each of the given inflation rates. Hint: Round your answers in the first row down to the nearest football ticket. For example, if you find that the deposit will cover 20.7 football tickets, you would round the purchasing power down to 20 football…
