- Are there other ways in which we can measure productivity besides the amount produced per hour of work?Would you usually expect GDP as measured by what is demanded to be greater than GDP measured by what is supplied, or the reverse?Most countries, including the United States, importsubstantial amounts of goods and services from othercountries. Yet the chapter says that a nation can enjoya high standard of living only if it can produce alarge quantity of goods and services itself. Can youreconcile these two facts?
- a. Consider an economy which produces and sells, among a host of other things, 100 million T‑shirts a year. The average T‑shirt begins life when a farmer plants seeds she put away last year, waters them, and harvests the cotton, then sells the cotton to a mill for $0.75, which sells the fabric to a T‑shirt factory for $1.50, which sells its T‑shirts to a wholesaler for $5, who sells it to Nordstrom for $10, which finally sells it to you for $17. Determine the impact of T‑shirts on annual GDP by calculating the value added of the entire production process. b. Now, calculate the amount spent on T‑shirts in a year if 100 million T‑shirts are sold, each for $17. How does this compare to the amount calculated through the value‑added method?Home has 12,000 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 100, while in banana production is 75. There is now also another country, Foreign, with a labor force of 18,000. Foreign’s unit labor requirement in apple production is 120, while in banana production is 150. If w=2w* , what goods should Home produce? What should Foreign produce?a. How much more output does the $22 trillion U.S. economy produce when GDP increases by 1.0 percent? in BILLION not .22 b. By how much does this increase per capita income if the U.S. population is 340 million?
- Suppose that a country produces 200 million dollar value of total outputin a year. The country produces only two goods: pepperoni pizzas andbottles of soda.

Ifthe price of a pepperoni pizza increases to $8, what will happen to thecountry’s iso-value line?If the GDP per capita grows by 5%, it means that O a. The rich people's incomes increased by 5% © b. On the average, the people's income grew by 5% © c Everyone's income grew by 5% d. Employment rates increased by 5%c. Compare the agricultural employment share and agricultural labor productivity, boththe level and the trend, between the two groups of countries(high-income vs. low-income countries). What can you tell about the differences?d. The theory in Lagakos and Waugh (2013) explains the low agricultural labor productivityin low-income countries with self-selection. Explain the main mechanism of the theory onhow self-selection leads to low agricultural labor productivity in poor countries. (both c and d please)
- What is export,import rate and net export reflecting in terms of GDP of a country?
