Question 1

Correct Answer:

Verified

a. 2001 price index = 1.00
2002 price index = base-year output at current prices/base-year output at base-year prices = [(8000 × 3) + (6000 ×× 8)] = 108,000 / 80,000 = 1.35
b. Inflation rate = [(1.35/1) - 1] × 100% = 35%
c. Nominal GNP (2001) = (8000 × 4) + (6000 × 8) = 80,000
Nominal GNP (2002) = (10,000 × 3) + (5000 × 14) = 100,000
Real GNP (2001) = nominal GNP (2001) = 80,000
Real GNP (2002) = nominal GNP (2002)/price index = 100,000/1.35 = 74,074
Real output growth = [(74,074/80,000) - 1] × 100% = -7.4%
