The BEA says “Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 2.9 percent in the fourth quarter of 2022”. Your friend has gone to FRED and pulled up the numbers FRED gives for the “Percent Change” and the “Percent Change from Year Ago” in real GDP for the 4th quarter of 2022. It turns out (you can verify this) that neither of those numbers is consistent with what the BEA says real GDP increased by. So your friend is very puzzled. Write one paragraph in your essay that helps your reader clearly understand what this 2.9 percent number really means, using the FRED numbers for context.

Suppose that annual output in year 1 in a 3-good economy is 3 quarts of ice cream, 1 bottle of shampoo, and 3 jars of peanut butter. In year 2, the output mix changes to 5 quarts of ice cream, 2 bottles of shampoo, and 2 jars of peanut butter. 1.1. If the prices in both years are $4 per quart for ice cream, $3 per bottle of shampoo, and $2 per jar of peanut butter, what was the economy’s nominal GDP in year 1? Show the calculation. Recall that GDP is the core measure of an economy's health. Nominal GDP (also known as current–dollar economic statistics) is not adjusted to account for any price changes. To calculate nominal GDP (the value of all final goods and services evaluated at current-year prices) you have to use the formula: Nominal GDP= P*Q. To get a real picture of a nation's economic growth economists prefer using real GDP. To calculate real GDP (the value of all final goods and services evaluated at base-year prices for each year) you have to use the formula: Real GDP= P*Q.…
