Suppose points F and G on the right-hand graph represent two possible outcomes for an imaginary economy in the year 2020, and those two points correspond to points B and C, respectively, on the left-hand graph. Also, suppose we know that the price index equaled 120 in 2019. Then the numbers 115 and 130 on the vertical axis of the left-hand graph would have to be replaced by 138 and 156, respectively. 155 and 175, respectively. 135 and 150, respectively. 137.5 and 154.75, respectively.

1. Calculating inflation using a simple price index Consider a fictional price index, the College Student Price Index (CSPI), based on a typical college student's annual purchases. Suppose the following table shows information on the market basket for the CSPI and the prices of each of the goods in 2017, 2018, and 2019. The cost of each item in the basket and the total cost of the basket are shown for 2017. Perform these same calculations for 2018 and 2019, and enter the results in the following table. 2017 2018 2019 Price Cost Price Cost Price Cost Quantity in Basket (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars) Notebooks 15 2 30 8 Calculators 1 70 70 100 130 Large coffees 250 2 500 2 Energy drinks 50 2 100 4 Textbooks 10 120 1,200 150 180 Total cost 1,900 Price index 100 Suppose the base year for this price index is 2017.

The first panelist, Stephen Stanley, suggests the economy may be over‑heating, while the second, Bob Browne, maintains that the current rate of growth is the highest the economy will see for the foreseeable future. Indicate where in the business cycle Stanley and Browne conclude the economy is currently by placing the points SS (Stanley) and BB (Browne) on the graph. Real GDPTimeSSBB
The Wakandan GDP for the year 2040 was $87,000. Government expenditures were $29,000 and investment was $6,000. They exported $15,000 worth of vibranium and imported $14,000 worth of coffee beans. If these are the only relevant transactions, what is the value of government spending? Round to two decimal places. Do not enter the currency symbol, but enter the negative sign if appropriate. If your answer is -$1.125, enter -1.13. 29,000
The GDP of South Africa in 1950 was 77,836.88 million dollars. In 2019 it was 748,861 million dollars. What has been the annualized growth rate of GDP for South Africa during the period 1950 to 2019? Use growth compounding to calculate the number and write the answer in percent terms with up to two decimals (e.g., 10.22 for 10.22%, or 2.33 for 2.33%).
