If the Consumer Price Index (CPI) was 140.6 last year and 146.9 this year, what was the inflation rate over the year?

  1. 4.12%
  2. 5.20%
  3. 4.48%
  4. 6.04%

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The inflation rate is calculated by subtracting the previous year's CPI from the current year's CPI, dividing by the previous year's CPI, and multiplying by 100. In this case:

(146.9 - 140.6) / 140.6 = 6.3 / 140.6 0.0448 or 4.48%.

The feedback from the document confirms:

"To calculate the rate of inflation over a period of time one must subtract the CPI at the beginning of the period from the CPI at the end of the period and then divide the result by the CPI at the beginning of the period. In this example, the solution can be derived as follows: (146.9 - 140.6) / 140.6."

Your client earns $100,000 from employment and $10,000 from investments each year. Her bills total $95,000 annually.
What is her discretionary income?

  1. $5,000
  2. $20,000
  3. $15,000
  4. $10,000

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Discretionary income is the amount left after subtracting expenses from total income, available for savings or investments. Total income = $100,000 (employment) + $10,000 (investments) = $110,000. Subtracting $95,000 in bills gives $110,000 - $95,000 = $15,000. The feedback from the document states:

"Discretionary income eligible for savings and investments is the difference between the amount of money coming in from employment and other sources and the amount of money going out to pay bills. In this example, $100,000 + $10,000 - $95,000 = $15,000."

question 8 - can cloudtrail be used for storing jobs? based on aws - aws cloudtrail is used for governance, compliance and investigating api usage across all of our aws accounts. every action that is taken by a user or script is an api call so this is logged to [aws] cloudtrail. something seems incorrect here.
