E. Refer to the following data compiled by the US government for 2022 for purposes of calculating the GDP Deflator for 2 commodities: ketchup & mustard. First, categorize each data point as either (R) for Real or (N) for Nominal. Then, use the GDP Deflator equation from your notes to calculate what the 'GDP Deflator' is. 2022 Data: *Ketchup & Mustard valued at previous (constant) prices in 2022 = $300 *Ketchup & Mustard valued at current prices in 2022 = $900 Q9: Category (R or N) Q10: GDP Deflator = (Show the equation itself here, as well as the math you used to get your answer):

To answer Questions #1 through #4 use the following information: Suppose that in the nation state of Raleighville there are 2 final goods produced in the economy - dog food and kitten chow. Suppose the economy produces 15 units of dog food and 5 units of kitten chow in 2000 (the base year), and 20 units of dog food and 10 units of kitten chow in 2020. Further suppose the price of dog food was $1.00 per unit in 2000, and $3.00 per unit in 2020; whereas the price of kitten chow was $1.00 in 2000 and $2.50 in 2020. What was the real GDP for Raleighville in 2020? Oa. $20.00 O b. $30.00 Oc. $57.50 Od. $85.00 Next page page

According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the GDP Deflator for the 3rd Quarter 2021 is +5.7%. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as rising 5.4 percent over the last 12 months, not seasonally adjusted. Given this information: 1) Interpret these data and summarize its meaning. 2) What are these data measuring? 3) If you were a business economist, which would you use and why?
What is the relationship of the GDP deflator to real GDP? To make comparisons across time or across borders, one must use the notion of a GDP deflator to convert nominal GDP into real GDP for comparisons. Nominal variables are in current dollars and have price level changes such as inflation and deflation included in them. Real variables are in constant dollars due to the factoring out of price level changes using a base year and a deflator. What is the current nominal GDP for the US economy? What is the current real GDP for the US economy?
This question requires effective research to gather pertinent labor market statistics. Consider the source of your data. Official labor market statistics are gathered into “jobs reports” by the United States federal governmental agency: the Bureau of Labor Statistics or BLS. (6 points.)a. Find the following statistics on employment in January, 2022:Unemployment rate: Labor Force Participation Rate: Employed population: c. Find the changes in each statistics from January, 2021 to January, 2022:Unemployment rate: Labor Force Participation Rate: Employed population: d. Find the changes in each statistics from January, 2010 to January, 2011:Unemployment rate: Labor Force Participation Rate: Employed population: e. Briefly compare the severity of the two recoveries citing relevant statistics.
3. In a small community, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Therefore, the only two goods that this community produces are coffee and scones in the following amounts: Year 2020 2021 Quantity 60 cups 90 cups Coffee Price $1.25 $1.45 Quantity 45 units 65 units Scones Price $2.10 $3.95 a) Calculate the inflation rate for 2021 using the GDP deflator method (assume that 2020 is the base year for real GDP calculations). Show your work. b) Calculate the inflation rate for 2021 using the CPI method (assume that 2020 is the base year for CPI calculations). Additionally, assume that the consumption basket for both years contains only 10 cups of coffee and 40 scones. Show your work. c) Compare the results of both inflation calculations and explain why they are similar or different based on the two methods and on the specific data used in this example.

Suppose that the British economy produces two goods: laptops and books. The quantity produced and the prices of these items for 2015 and 2016 are shown in the table below. Year 2015 2016 Quantities Produced Laptops 50 Books 1,000 Laptops 90 Books ? Price ($) Laptopa Books 7 Laptops 170 Books B 200 Instructions: In part a, round your answer to two decimal places. In part b, enter your answer as a whole number. In part c, round your answer to one decimal place. a. Let's assume that the base year was 2015, so that real GDP in 2015 equals nominal GDP in 2015. If the real GDP in Britain was $15,000 in 2015, the price of books was: $[ b. Using your answer from part (a), if the growth rate in nominal GDP was 15% | books must have been produced in 2016. Using your answers from parts (a) and (b), the growth rate in real GDP between 2015 and 2016 was: %
