Abstract
Since 1996,the People′s Bank of China has lowered interest rate on loans and deposits for six
times due to higher real interest rate in China than that of other countries. Real interest rate in
wrongly referred to a spread between the current nominal interest rate and the price index at the
correspondent period,which has been widely introduced to calculate the real interest rate by

real interest rate by discussing the relationship between interest rate and inflation rate. The
article points out that interest rate should be calculated on the basis of accurate forecast about
price change. Under the current circumstances,real interest rate is not too high to be lowered
again in China.
