Suppose a simple economy produces only two goods, pillows and rugs. In the first year, 5O pillows are produced, and sold at $5 each; 11 rugs are produced, and sold at $50 each. In the second year, 54 pillows are produced, and sold for $6 each; 12 rugs are produced, and sold at $52 each. In the third year, 60 pillows are produced and sell for $7.00 dollars each; 14 rugs are produced and sold for 64 dollars each. Calculate real GDP for each year and the growth rate of real GDP from year 1 to year 2 and from year 2 to year 3..
3. Consider an economy that only produces mittens. In Year 1, 4000 pairs of mittens are produced and the price is $5 per pair. In the Year 2, 5000 pairs of mittens are produced and the price is $7 per pair. In Year 3, 7000 pair of mittens are produced and the price is $9 per pair. Use Year 1 as the base year. What is the nominal GDP for each year? What is the real GDP for each year? What is the GDP deflator for each year? What is the percentage growth rate of real GDP from year 2 to year 3? What is the inflation rate (as measured by the GDP deflator) from year 2 to year 3?
Page 550 1. 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. 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 GDP in year 1? What was its GDP in year 2?

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.

6. Limitations of GDP Although GDP is a reasonably good measure of a nation's output, it does not necessarily include all transactions and production for that nation. Which of the following scenarios are either not accounted for or measured inaccurately by either the income or the expenditure methods of calculating GDP for the United States? Check all that apply. The costs of overfishing and other overly intensive uses of resources O Federal government paychecks to soldiers The value of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government The leisure time enjoyed by households When a U.S. company purchases and imports wood from Brazil to use to build new houses within the United States, this purchase increases the component of GDP while also net exports by the same amount. Therefore, the purchase of wood in US GDP. from Brazil causes

The Canadian government spends considerably less on antipollution efforts this year than it did in recent years. As a result of this, GDP c. The quality of cancer treatments increases, so patients undergo fewer treatments, which hospitals continue to provide at the same price per treatment as before. As a result of this GDP
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.…
