Question and answer
what is the importance of interest rates and how they affect our purchasing decisions?
i will definitely want a LOW interest rate whenever I will purchase something using my credit card. If we are looking at real estate, we need to know how high is the inflation rate because that will define the value of the property in the future.

Interest rates influence our purchasing decisions by affecting the cost of borrowing, thereby impacting our disposable income and consumption; for instance, higher interest rates make borrowing more expensive, which discourages people from borrowing and spending, and those with loans will have less disposable income due to increased interest payments.

How do low interest rates affect our purchasing?
Weegy: Low interest rates can encourage people to make purchases by making borrowing cheaper. When interest rates are low, loans, credit cards, and other forms of credit become more affordable, as the cost of borrowing decreases. This can lead to an increase in consumer spending as people are more likely to take out loans to purchase goods or services. (More)
