---### Understanding Human Capital and Its Relationship to GDP**Question:**Holding everything else constant, there is a (i) _________ relationship between the total human capital stock (denoted with H in the textbook) and real GDP (denoted with Y). A country's total human capital stock is (ii) _________ related to the overall quality of education and the job experience of the ordinary worker.Select one:- (i) negative, (ii) positively- (i) positive, (ii) negatively- (i) negative, (ii) negatively- (i) positive, (ii) positively**Explanation:**To answer this question, students must understand the relationship between human capital and GDP. Here are some key concepts:1. **Human Capital**: Represents the skills, knowledge, and experience possessed by an individual or population, seen in terms of their value or cost to an organization or country.2. **GDP (Gross Domestic Product)**: The total value of goods produced and services provided in a country during one year.**Interpretation of Relationship:**- **Positive Relationship**: Indicates that as one variable increases, the other also increases.- **Negative Relationship**: Indicates that as one variable increases, the other decreases.Given these concepts, consider the typical relationship between human capital and GDP. Generally, as human capital increases through better quality education and more job experience, the productivity of workers improves, leading to higher GDP. **Correct Answer:**- **(i) positive, (ii) positively**This selects the correct option indicating a positive relationship between total human capital stock and real GDP, and a positive relationship between human capital and both the quality of education and job experience. By increasing human capital through education and experience, a country is likely to see an increase in GDP due to higher productivity and efficiency in the workforce.---

Question 20 Revisit Later Q. "The National Statistical Office, which is under the Union Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation, has released its estimates for gross domestic product (GDP) in the first quarter (Q1) of this fiscal year, 2022-23. The headline is that GDP at constant prices in the first quarter showed 13.5 per cent growth year on year. This is a deceptively high level, given the base effect." The following options are given to explain why this number is deceptively high. i. Most expectations were for quarterly GDP growth in the 15-16 per cent range year on year. ii. Given the base effect, the growth rate of 13.5 percent is in fact a clear disappointment. iii. It needs to be remembered that the equivalent quarter of the previous year, April-June 2021, was when the devastating second wave of the coronavirus epidemic was raging through the country. iv. Even though there was no national lockdown as draconian as that observed during the first wave in 2020, activity…
