You acquired an apartment for Vh ID 5 bi llion in 2021. In 2022, th price of y our apartr nent incr eased to VND5.28 billion. Assuming a 10% annual inflation You are 202 and using 2021 as the bas e year what is the change in the real value of you ap artment from 2021 to 2022? None of the other answers is correct. No cha nge. VND 0.2 billion decrease. VND 0.28 billion increase.

The correct answer is **No change**.<br /><br />The question asks for the *real* value of the apartment, accounting for inflation. The nominal value increased by VND 0.28 billion. However, with a 10% inflation rate, the purchasing power of VND 5 billion in 2021 would have increased to VND 5.5 billion (5 billion * 1.10) in 2022. Since the apartment's price only increased to VND 5.28 billion, its real value (adjusted for inflation) has not increased. Therefore, there is no change in real value.<br />
