Answer:

1. Increase in real income percentage = 1.5%

2. Rate of inflation = 1.7%

Explanation:

For computing the percentage of how much real income would increase, we have to apply the formulas which are shown below:

The increase in real income percentage  would be equal to

= increase in nominal income percentage - increase in price level percentage

= 5.3% - 3.8%

= 1.5%

And, the rate of inflation equals to

Nominal income - the rate of inflation = Real income

2.8% - rate of inflation = 1.1%

So, the rate of inflation = 1.7%
