Use the concept of real and nominal GDP to compare the years 1980 (Nominal GDP was $2.863 Trillion) and 2017 (Nominal GDP was $19.49 Trillion). 1980 Consumer Price Index was 82.14 and 2017 Consumer Price Index was 246.6. The base year is 1982 - 1984 when the CPI would have been 100.
In the first Super Bowl in early 1967, the winners earned prize money of $15,000. In January of 1967, the CPI was 32.9. In January of 2018, the CPI was 247.87. Earning $15,000 in 1967 would have been like earning how much in 2018 (using our CPI numbers to do the conversion)? Group of answer choices a) $15,000 b) approximately $113,011 c) approximately $95,717 d) approximately $110,717 e) approximately $114.78
Two countries, Country N in North America and Country S in South America, have the same CPI basket. Year 2000 is the CPI base year for both countries. In that year, the cost of CPI basket in Country N is $N100, and in country S is $s1000, where $N and $s are their respective currencies. Twenty years later, in 2020, the CPI in Country N rose to 240, and in Country S to 360. a) In the ideal world in which the purchasing power parity (PPP) holds true, what should be the nominal exchange between $s and $N in Year 2000 and in Year 2020. Show calculations and explain the change in nominal exchange rate. b) Suppose in reality, the nominal exchange rage between the two currencies is 18 $s per $N in Year 2020. First, explain why the nominal exchange rate differs from your calculation above. Second, calculate the real exchange rate between the two countries, and explain the meaning of your calculated result. c) During Year 2021, the growth of the real GDP in the two countries are, 0% in country…
The price of a serving of McDonald's French fries in 1950 was 10¢. For simplicity, assume the price of a serving of McDonald's French fries today is $1.62, the CPI for 1950 is 23.5 and the CPI for today is 240.5. In terms of today's dollars, the real price of McDonald's French fries in 1950 was $ (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) Therefore in this example, the real price of McDonald's French fries has since 1950.
(a) The following table shows the outputs and prices of three products produced by an economy in 2018, 2019 and 2020. (i) Measure the nominal GDP, the real GDP and the GDP deflator in 2019 and 2020, taking 2018 as the base year.(ii) Using the GDP deflator, measure the inflation rate in the economy between 2018 and 2019, and also between 2019 and 2020. (b) Assume all household consumption items are locally produced as shown in the table in Question (a). A typical household in the economy consumes 5 units of rice, 4 units of shirt and 2 units of shoes in 2018. Using 2018 as the base year, measure the CPI for 2019 and 2020 and the inflation rate between 2018 and 2019, and also between 2019 and 2020. Explain why the inflation rate is different from those computed from (a)(ii).
