An economy produces three goods: organ, apple and organ juice. It is assumed that half of the organ are bought and consumed as final good; the other half is used to produce organ juice. In 2019, 20 KGs of organ are produced at Rs.50/kg, 40 KGs of apple are produced at 100/kg, and 25 Glasses of organ juice are produced at Rs.200/glass. In 2020, 40 KGs of organ are produced at Rs.80/kg, 60 KGs of apple are produced at 110/kg, and 30 glasses of organ juice are produced at Rs.195/glass. Find the following: Assuming 2019 is the base year; calculate the real and nominal GDP in 2019 and 2020.
question:
a) An economy produces three goods: organ, apple and organ juice. It is assumed that half of the organ are bought and consumed as final good; the other half is used to produce organ juice.
In 2019, 20 KGs of organ are produced at Rs.50/kg, 40 KGs of apple are produced at 100/kg, and 25 Glasses of organ juice are produced at Rs.200/glass.
In 2020, 40 KGs of organ are produced at Rs.80/kg, 60 KGs of apple are produced at 110/kg, and 30 glasses of organ juice are produced at Rs.195/glass.
Find the following:
- Assuming 2019 is the base year; calculate the real and nominal
GDP in 2019 and 2020.
