- Cross country comparisons of GDP per capita typically use purchasing power parity equivalent exchange rates, which are a measure of the long run equilibrium value of an exchange rate. In fact, we used PPP equivalent exchange rates in this module. Why could using market exchange rates, which sometimes change dramatically in a short period of time, be misleading?Why are inflationary dangers lower in the high-income economies than in low-income and middle-income economies?Suppose that a country's annual growth rates were 5, 3, 4 , -1 , -2 , 2 , 3 , 4, 6, and 3 in yearly sequence over a 10 - year period . a ) What was the country's trend rate of growth over this period ? b ) Which set of years most clearly demonstrates an expansionary phase of the business cycle ? c ) Which set of years best illustrates a recessionary phase of the business cycle ?
- (B)(Solow) An economy in which no TFP growth occurs is at steady state. An earthquakeoccurs destroying a fraction of the capital stock. Miraculously, no one is hurt. For this scenario, whathappens to the economy in the periods after the earthquake?

Theseconcerns, along with US recession fears and disappointment overChina’s ability to lead the global economy stronger in 2023, haveweakened sentiment, reflecting in the recent fall in oil prices.Markets had expected a ramp-up in economic activity in Chinain the second quarter, but has also…
