Scenario: John is looking to buy a house in Bozeman. He has about $120,000 in savings, and the house he is interested in costs $300,000. When he approaches Boze Bank, the same bank at which all of his five brothers have accounts, he learns that he can borrow at a nominal interest rate of 5 percent. Inflation is 2 percent for 2 years after he buys the house and then increases to 3 percent. Assume that Boze Bank is the only bank in Bozeman and John's five brothers contribute a significant amount to the bank's total savings.

Refer to the scenario above. If the bank calls John back one day later and explains that there has been a mistake and the actual nominal interest rate at which he can borrow is 5.5 percent, John will be ________.
