Suppose an economy produces steel, wheat, and oil. The steel industry produces $100,000 in revenue, spends $4,000 on oil, $10,000 on wheat, pays workers $80,000. The wheat industry produces $150,000 in revenue, spends $20,000 on oil, $10,000 on steel, and pays workers $90,000.

1. Suppose an economy produces steel, wheat, and oil. The steel industry produces $80,000 in revenue, spends $4,000 on oil, $8,000 on wheat, pays workers $60,000. The wheat industry produces $120,000 in revenue, spends $20,000 on oil, $10,000 on steel, and pays workers $80,000. The oil industry produces $180,000 in revenue, spends $20,000 on wheat, $20,000 on steel, and pays workers $80,000. There is no government. There are neither exports nor imports, and none of the industries accumulate or deaccumulate inventories. Calculate GDP using the production and income approaches. Please provide what rules/formulas are used to solve this and the final answer.

Suppose U.S. drivers purchased $50 billion of ExxonMobil-produced gasoline during a recent year, with one-half purchased directly from ExxonMobil-owned gas stations and one-half from independent (or third-party) gas stations. Suppose further that ExxonMobil purchased the oil (which it refined into gasoline) from foreign producers for $20billion and that it receives 60 percent of the sales revenue that independent stations generate from selling ExxonMobil gasoline. In this case, the value added by ExxonMobil to U.S. GDP is $__billion.

Why is per capita gross domestic product (per capita GDP) better than gross domestic product (GDP) as a measure of a country's wealth? O Location and land mass have a large effect on GDP and must be considered in assessing a country's economy. O Because per capita GDP takes population into account, it is more useful for comparing the standard of living in different countries. O Per capita GDP provides information on income, while GDP only provides information on investment. O Per capita GDP includes the value of land, minerals, and crops not counted by normal GDP. The advantages of the sole proprietorship include O ease of start-up © full control ob business decisions © exclusive rights to profits © all of the above
ACTIVITY 4: Assessment Assume that a country has a closed economy that has only three goods/services. That is, there is no trade with other countries, so the economy has consumption, investment, and government spending, but no net exports. Each year, the economy produces three haircuts that cost $10 each two factory machines that cost $100 each one highway repair that costs $500 1a. What is total GDP for this economy? 1b. What percent of GDP is consumption? 1c. What percent of GDP is investment? 1d. What percent of GDP is government spending?…
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.
