5. The real GDP per capita in Colombia was $3,692 in 2000 and $5,889 in 2020. What is the
average annual growth rate of the real GDP per capita from 2000 to 2020? Please use the log
formula.
Small differences in growth rates in the size of
the economy, over several decades, will result
in big differences in the size of the economy.
Pretend we start in 1950 and the U.S. growth in
real GDP has been around 3.15%. This has
resulted in real GDP growing 8 times over this
70-year period (1950 to 2020). If real GDP
growth had been 4.0%, real GDP would be
times larger.
a. 8 (about the same growth as with 3.15%
growth)
b. 10
С. 14
d. 16
If real GDP increases from $100 billion to $105 billion, and the population increases from 100 million to 102 million, what is the growth rate of real GDP per person? The growth rate of real GDP per person is ___ percent
