Answer to Question 1

Disagree. Inflation, in general, must increase both our cost of living and nominal income. The increases in the prices of goods and services will be paid to the factors of production. Since the payments to the factors of production make up national income, nominal income will increase, in general, along with the cost of living.

Answer to Question 2

The maximum price a risk-averse person will pay to avoid taking a risk.
