a) Find the inflation rate in 2010, if the 2009 is the base year? b) Find the increase in the cost of living between 2010 and 2011?
Q22 MCQ Inflation is an increase in: a) the price of one item b) the average price level c) the average income level d) real GDP
Here are values of the CPI (multiplied by 100) for each year from 2000 to 2010. For each year beginning with 2001, calculate the rate of inflation from the previous year. Year CPI Inflation Rate (%) 2000 133.7 2001 139.2 2002 143.3 2003 147.5 2004 151.2 2005 155.4 2006 159.9 2007 163.5 2008 166 2009 169.6 2010 175.2
In 2017, which was accepted as the base year in a family consuming only bread and cheese, 50 TL was spent for cheese and 30 TL for bread. In the base year, cheese is 4 TL and bread is 5 TL. In 2018, the price of cheese was 4 TL and the price of bread was 6 TL.According to these data, what is the inflation rate of 2018 for the family in question?
Use the information below to: a) compute the price index for each year using 2019 as the base year. b) compute the inflation rate between the two years. Item Quantity Unit Price-2018 Unit Price-2019 Coffee 20 pounds $7.00 $8.00 Rent 12 months 950.00 1,000.00 Pizza 100 pizzas 12.00 14.00 Cable 12 months 55.00 60.00 Vacation 2 weeks 550.00 600.00
Consumers of the economy purchase all primary products, manufacturing products and services shown in the table. Manufacturing products and services are all produced by the domestic economy. However, for each year, 3/4 of the primary products is imported, and 1/4 is produced domestically. Set 1973 as the base year.Find the % change in prices for primary products, manufacturing products and services, respectively, from 1973 to 1974. Find the CPI for both years. Calculate the corresponding inflation rate from 1973 to 1974. Find the nominal and real GDP for both years. Hence, find the GDP deflator for both years. Calculate the corresponding inflation rate from 1973 to 1974. The above table is set up in such a way to mimic the actual data of the inflation rates calculated from the CPI and the GDP deflator, respectively, for the US during the first oil crisis in 1973- 1974. Use your results to explain how and why the two numbers differ by such a wide margin during that period.
Question 2 Part (a) Refer to the table below for a very simple economy producing three goods: education, pizzas and cars. Steel panels are needed for car production, cheese is necessary for making pizzas and projectors are used for educational service. Product Steel panels Education Cars Cheese Pizzas Projectors Quantity 40 400 400 2500 2500 4000 2017 Price $5000 $1000 $10000 $1.50 $9.00 $2000 Quantity 50 450 500 3500 3500 5000 2022 Price $6000 $1100 $12000 $1.50 $12.00 $3000 What is the nominal GDP for the economy in 2022? What was the nominal GDP in 2017? What is the real GDP in 2022 using 2017 prices as base year prices? What is the overall real GDP growth rate between 2022 and 2017? Part (b) Assume for an economy, there are 11.5 million people employed, unemployment rate is 5.2%, labor force participation rate is 64%, number of defence force personnel
The monthly market basket for consumers consists of pizza, t-shirts, and rent. The table below shows market basket quantities and prices for the base year (Year 1) and in the following two years. Product Pizza T-Shirts Rent Base Year (Year 1) Quantity 10 3 1 The inflation rate between Year 1 and Year 2 is The inflation rate between Year 2 and Year 3 is Price in the Base Year $3.50 $10.00 $500.00 Price in Year 2 $4.38 $9.00 $550.00 Price in Year 3 $4.73 $10.50 $600.00 %.

The average price of tuition and fees at private 4-year colleges and universities increased from $8,300 in 1991 to $23,000 in 2006. Calculate the relative change in price from 1991 to 2006 and compare it to the overall rate of inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index. Average tuition and fees in private 4-year colleges and universities increased by ■%. (Round to the nearest integer as needed.)
