Suppose an economy produces only 2 products that will also be used for directconsumption, as per the article at the end of the exam: chicken wings and donuts. Inthe second quarter of 2021 (the base period), 180,000 pounds of chicken wings wereproduced, at a value of $3.50 per pound, while in the second quarter of 2022,production of chicken wings increased to 200,000 pounds, at a value of $3.75 perpound. In the second quarter of 2021 (the base period), 85,000 donuts were producedat a value of $0.85 per donut, while in the second quarter of 2022, donut productionincreased to 100,000 donuts, each at a value of $0.95 per donut. The population inthis economy is 1000 individuals in 2022, while the number of hours worked in 2022is 5000. Also, the quantities that were produced in 2021 represent the quantities thatwere purchased by the typical household, meaning that everything that was producedwas sold.d. Solve for the amount of labor productivity in the second quarter of 2022.e. Solve for the…

Q.1.3 In the base year, a country produced 50 units of output at a price of R6,00 eachfor a nominal GDP of R300. This year it produces 60 units of output at a price ofR8,00 each. What is the percentage change in real GDP since the base year?(2)(a) 5%;(b) 10%;(c) 20%;(d) 15%.
using the table below giving the quantity and price of goods producedin an economy in two periods in suitable units, assuming that there are only three goodsproduced in the economy. Consider the economy described above a) What is nominal GDP in 2003 and in 2004? By what percentage does nominalGDP change from 2003 to 2004?b) Using the prices for 2003 as the set of common prices, what is real GDP in 2003and in 2004? By what percentage does real GDP change from 2003 to 2004?c) Using the prices for 2004 as the set of common prices, what is real GDP in 2003and in 2004? By what percentage does real GDP change from 2003 to 2004?d) Why are the two output growth rates constructed in (b) and (c) different? Whichone is correct? Explain your answer.
A country’s GDP is defined by the following equation: GDP = Consumer Spending + Investmentspending. The economy of this country is closed and there’s no government. Investment spendingis defined by the following equation: Investment Spending = Investment (planned) + Investment(unplanned). Investment (planned) is fixed at 350. Consumer spending is defined by thefollowing equation: Consumer spending = 200 + 0.55 (GDP). And for this country, PlannedExpenditure = Consumer Spending + Investment Planned. Based on this information, attempt thefollowing questions:a. “Investment (unplanned) will be negative if GDP is 900” – showing work, test theauthenticity of this statement. b. How do you think GDP (and production) will change if the income of this country is 1500?Explain by deriving Investment (unplanned) for an income of 1500. c. Derive the GDP for which Planned Expenditure = GDP. d. Supposed Investment (planned) was increased to 450. How will income-expenditureequilibrium change. e. Relate…
Suppose that there are two individuals in an economy, Person 1 and Person 2. Person 1 buys asecond-hand car from Person 2 for $12,000.10. What is the change in GDP according to the Income Approach here? What is the changeof each person’s contribution to GDP according to the Income Approach? Suppose now instead that an individual was buying $400 of wine from a domestic producer ofwine. Now suppose that this individual decides to import $400 of wine instead.11. What is the change of Consumption (C), Investment (I), Government Spending (G), NetExports (NX), and GDP as calculated by the Expenditure Approach in this example?Finally, now consider the following table:Government Purchases of Goods andServices$58.5Indirect Taxes Less Subsidies $29Personal Income Taxes $41.5Wages and Compensation $165.5Interest on Public Debt $15.5Consumption Expenditure $168.4Exports $90.9Depreciation $33.5Imports $93.3Gross Investment $67.2Net Interest Income $19.0Business Profits Before Taxes $45.512.

Consider an economy called Xanadu for which desired aggregate consumptiondepends on income, Y. and the real interest rate, r, according toCd =100+0.7Y - 200r.Xanadu's GDP is Y = 1000 and government spending on goods and services is G=180. Xanadu's desired future capital stock is given byK* = 140 - 100ucwhere luCdenotes the user-cost of capital. The price of capital is PK =2, thephysical depreciation rate is d =0.1 and the existing capital stock is K0= 50. Trapital stock between any period t and the following period t+1 evolves accordng toKt+1 = It+(1-d)Kt where It the level of investment. Assume throughout that net factor payments from abroad (NFP) is equal to zero.Suppose instead that Xanadu is a small open economy facing a world interest rate of 1%. It follows that Xanadu's current account position is equal toA) -16B) -51C) -6D) -8
Consider a macroeconomy where the current population is 800 thousand people. Gross domestic private investment is constant $2500 million while consumer expenditure is described by the equation: C = 580 +0.8DI. The government is fairly active, with a total expenditure of $2000 million andnet taxes of $2550 million. Further investigation of the macroeconomy reveals that imports are constant at $3000 million while exports are constant at $2500 million. Currently, the overall price level (GDP deflator) is 118 and the potental GDP level is $13.5 billion.(Question4 of 7)Now, consider that the government decreases taxes by 7.5%. While the change had a direct impact on the economy, other market conditions led to an unanticipated change in the economy. Specifically, imports decrease by 7.5%. At the same time, given the birth rate, mortality rate, and net migration, the economy experienced a 0% change in its population.1. As a result of these events, what is the current equilibrium level of GDP?…
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.
Suppose an economy has two years worth of data, years 1 and 2. Sup- pose there are also two goods, bread and corn. Suppose in year one fifty units of corn are sold at a price of 1 $ and 20 units of bread are sold at a price of 2 $. Suppose in year two, 60 units of corn are sold at a price of 1.5 $ and 80 units of bread are sold at a price of 2.05 $. Compute nominal GDP in both periods. Compute real GDP under both definitions of a base year. Compute also a chain weighted real GDP series. For all three measures, compute the GDP deflator. In addition, compute a CPI’s for each base year assuming total consump- tion in the base year forms the basket of goods for measurement. What are the implications for these measures for the amount of inflation in this economy. [Note, you should have five candidate measures]. What about the amount of economic growth? Suppose that corn in year 2 is twice as valuable as corn in year 1 to consumers in terms of their enjoyment from its consumption (or in…
