Solution

The real exchange rate is calculated as the nominal exchange rate times the domestic price level, divided by the foreign price level.

In this case, the nominal exchange rate is 94 yen per Australian dollar, the domestic price level (Australia) is $1.8 per good, and the foreign price level (Japan) is 152 yen per good.

So, the real exchange rate is (94 * 1.8) / 152 = 1.11 Japanese goods per Australian good.

So, the correct answer is c. 1.11.
