Assume an economy where there are two producers: a wheat producer and a bread producer. In agiven year, the wheat producer grows 3 million tonnes of wheat, of which 2.5 million tonnes aresold to the bread producer at $30 per bushel, and 0.5 million tonnes are stored by the wheatproducer to use as seed for next years crop. The bread producer produces and sells 100 millionloaves of bread to consumers for $3.50 per loaf. Determine GDP in this economy during this yearusing the product and expenditure approaches.

What is meant by value added? b) Suppose that in a given year, a company spends € 400 million on intermediate goods, €800 million on wages of employees with no other expenses and makes total sales worth of € 1600 million. What is the value added of this company? c) The government wants to increase absolute savings and successfully incentivizes the people to save more (saving rate goes up).

China’s real GDP increased 6.9 percent in the first quarter of 2017 from a year earlier.Investment grew by 9.2 percent and retail sales by 10.9 percent. In current prices, GDPincreased by 11.8 percent from a year earlier.1. Explain how China’s real GDP can grow at a 6.9 percent rate when consumption andinvestment grew faster than 6.9 percent. 2. Explain why the growth rate of GDP in current prices does not provide informationabout how quickly the economy is really growing.
