Real Wage Rate Definition

The Real Wage Rate (RWR) is the purchasing power of wages after adjusting for inflation. It reflects the actual value of wages in terms of the goods and services they can buy, accounting for changes in the cost of living.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the Real Wage Rate (RWR):

\[ RWR = \frac{50000}{1 + \frac{3}{100}} \approx 48543.69 \]

The Real Wage Rate (RWR) is approximately $48,543.69.
