A country has just one resource - labor - that it can use to produce two goods, books and clothing.
At first the country has 10 million workers, and each worker can produce either 2 books or 5 units of
clothing per day.
Suppose the country wants to produce 8 million books.
Suppose the price of a book is $10, and the price of a unit of clothing is $20. Using this
information and your answer from the last question, calculate the country's GDP (measured in
dollars per day). Enter your answer as a number in the space below. (For example, if your
answer is $3.75 million, enter it as 3750000 in the space below.)
