In 2014, 30 KGs of tomatoes are produced at Rs.60 each, and 20 KGs of ketchup are produced at Rs.200 each. In 2015, 40 KGs of tomatoes are produced at Rs.80 each, and 30 KGs of ketchup are produced at Rs.195 each. Find the following: i. Assuming 2014 is the base year; calculate the real, nominal GDP and GDP deflator in 2014 and 2015.

There are three firms In an economy: A. B, and C. Firm A buys $350 worth of goods from firm B and $150 worth of goods from firm C. and produces 250 units of output, which it sells at $4 per unit. Firm B buys $200 worth of goods from firm A and nothing from firm C, and produces 250 units of output, which it sells at $6 per unit. Firm C buys $300 worth of goods from firm A and S100 worth of goods from firm B. It produces output worth $800. All other products are sold to consumers.

K An economy is based on three sectors, agriculture, manufacturing, and energy. Production of a dollar's worth of agriculture requires inputs of $0.30 from agriculture, $0.30 from manufacturing, and $0.30 from energy. Production of a dollar's worth of manufacturing requires inputs of $0.30 from agriculture, $0.20 from manufacturing, and $0.20 from energy. Production of a dollar's worth of energy requires inputs of $0.20 from agriculture, $0.30 from manufacturing, and $0.30 from energy. Find the output for each sector that is needed to satisfy a final demand of $31 billion for agriculture, $50 billion for manufacturing, and $12 billion for energy. The output of the agricultural sector is billion dollars. (Round the final answer to three decimal places as needed. Round all intermediate values to six decimal places as needed.)
