Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The real interest rate is the opportunity cost of loanable funds because the real interest rate measures what is forgone by using the funds. If the funds are loaned, then the real interest rate is received. If the funds are borrowed, then the real interest is paid for the funds. The real interest rate forgone when funds are used either to buy consumption goods and services or to invest in new capital goods is the opportunity cost of not saving or not lending those funds.
