1. What is PPP GDP and why do we need to use it? 2. Why is PPP GDP per capita a better measure then GDP alone?
1. Calculate the per capita value for each situation to two decimal places. a)Number of new cars sold in Ontario in 2017: 312 000. Number of Ontario drivers: 1 200 00 b) Gross federal government debt in 2017: $618 790 000 000.Canada's population: 33 100 00 Gini Index for Ontario, 1995–2005 2.

1. You have been hired as a consultant for the City of Los Angeles. City planners need to understand population data and use the data to predict the population in the future. Having a good estimate of the city's population helps the planners decide how much money will be needed for city maintenance and services, and helps local officials anticipate the needs for housing, school and other construction, and much more. Your work begins with finding the population of Los Angeles in the United States Census for 1920 to 2010. The U.S. Census Bureau data for the City of Los Angeles 1920-2010 appears in table below.
