If imports are $2 trillion, exports are $1.9 trillion, consumption is $3.8 trillion, investment is $700 billion, and government spending is $1.1 trillion, how much is GDP? 2. If consumption is $2.5 trillion, investment is $900 billion, government spending is $700 billion, imports are $1.2 trillion and exports are $1.4 trillion, how much is GDP? Example: If GDP rises from $6 trillion in 1994 to $8 trillion in 1999 and the GDP deflator in 1999 is 110, find real GDP in 1999 and find the percentage increase in real GDP between 1994 and 1999. First, we are asked to find real GDP in 1999. To do this we divide the nominal GDP, which is $8 trillion ($8,000 billion), by the GDP deflator for 1999, which is 110. This then is multiplied by 100. Real GDP in 1999 is $7,273 billion or $7.2 trillion. To find the percent change you must find the difference of real GDP between 1999 and 1994. Change in GDP = 7,232 – 6,000 = 1,232 You then take this difference and divide it by GDP in…arrow_forwardBriefly discuss the following concepts iv. Government expenditure multiplierv.
