In an economy, there are only two goods (Cars and
cycles) produced. The data for last three years is given in the
below table. Calculate the nominal and real GDP of three years and
then find the GDP deflator for all the three years. Find year on
year (YoY) inflation for 2018 and 2019. Note: the base year for
this economy is given as 2017.

A small economy produced and consumed only two goods (computers
and pies) in Year 1 and Year 2, in the amounts shown in the table
below.
[Read the next sentence very carefully.] Year 1 is the
base year for all calculation purposes in this question, and we
also assume that the official market basket for the CPI is the
actual mix of output produced in Year 1.

Consider an economy that produces and consumes only two goods.
In the following table are data for two different years. Assume
2015 as the base year.
Year: 2015 2019 Goods Quantity Price Quantity Price Burgers 400 $3
600 $4 Pizzas 400 $4 300 $6
(a) Calculate nominal and real GDP for 2015 and 2019. By what
percentage did real GDP increase between 2015 and 2019? What is the
annual growth rate of the economy during this period? (b) What is...

Consider the following data for the following economy,
where there only two goods: wine and cheese. In the
following table are data for three different years. Use the
first year, 2016, as the base year in calculating real
GDP, the GDP deflator, and the CPI.

Assume that you live in a simple economy in which only three
goods are produced and traded:
fish, fruit, and meat. Suppose that on January 1, 2010, fish
sold for $3.50 per pound, meat was
$4.00 per pound, and fruit was $2.50 per pound. At the end of
the year, you discover that the
catch was low and that fish prices had increased to $5.00 per
pound, but fruit prices stayed at
$2.50 and meat prices had actually fallen to...
In class, we developed a PPF for an economy that produced two
goods with no factor substitution. This PPF gives some intuition
for why the PPF in the the Heckscher-Ohlin Model is curved.
a. Imagine an economy makes only clothes (QC) and food (QF) and
has two inputs of production: Labor (L) and Capital (K). It takes 4
units of capital and 1 unit of labor to make one unit of clothing.
It takes 1 unit of capital and 1...
1. Suppose that a simple economy produced only three goods:
wheat, automobiles, and chairs. The table below lists the quantity

Consider the exchange economy. It consists of two individuals, A
and B.
The only two goods available for consumption are red wine and
choco-
late. The endowment of the economy is 64 units of red wine and
16 units
of chocolate. A’s endowment is wa ? and ca
? ; B’s endowment is wb ? and
cb ? . The utility functions for each individual are
U = 2(wa ca )1/2 and
UB = 10(wBcB)1/2, where wj and cj are...
Suppose that the British economy produces two goods: laptops and
books. The quantity produced and the prices of these items for 2015
and 2016 are shown in the table below:
Year

Instructions:Round your answer to two decimal
places.
