    with 1982-1984 = 100 as the base of the index.
    a. For the given data, compute the inflation rate for each country.
    b. Plot the inflation rate for each country against time (i.e., use the horizontal axis for
    time and the vertical axis for the inflation rate).
    c. What broad conclusions can you draw about the inflation experience in the seven
    countries?
    c. Which country’s inflation rate seems to be most variable? Can you offer any
    explanation?
