Below are three individuals.For each one, explain what their real interest rate is before and after the unexpected inflation jump and whether they benefit or lose from this unexpected rise in inflation and why: Alex has a 5-year car loan with a fixed interest rate of 4%.

1c) If you were to make a ROM data table from the next state truth table, explain the new names, Address [AX] or Data [DY], for each of the column variables. I.e., what should the new names be for Q1, Q0, T and the other column names in the ROM table. Assume that all signals are active-high for this part of the problem. Note that in a ROM data table, 0=Low and 1=High, and there are no wild cards and no don’t cares. You do NOT have to make a new table; just add a new row on top of your old table and explain any changes that would be necessary. Use your scratch paper and label this 1c.
