Suppose you are reading a magazine showing a figure that plots the U.S. GDP from 1900 to 2012
in "2005 chained dollars" . It means:
a) The GDP is calculated using 2005 prices;
b) The GDP is calculated applying the variable-weighted price-index approach with 2005 as the base
9.
year;
c) The GDP is price-adjusted based on the chain-weighted price-index approach with 2005 as the base
year.
d) None of the above.
What is the relationship of the GDP deflator to real GDP?
To make comparisons across time or across borders, one must use the notion of a GDP deflator to convert nominal GDP into real GDP for comparisons. Nominal variables are in current dollars and have price level changes such as inflation and deflation included in them. Real variables are in constant dollars due to the factoring out of price level changes using a base year and a deflator.
What is the current nominal GDP for the US economy?
What is the current real GDP for the US economy?

- Gross Domestic Product Explain how net exports affect the US economy. Describe both positive and negative impacts on GDP. Why do national income accountants use net exports to compute GDP, rather than simply adding exports to the other expenditure components of GDP? You have the following information on 3 countries: Soccerland, Handeggland, and Neverland How long will it take until Soccerland’s GDP increases by 75%? How long will it take until Soccerland and Handeggland have the same GDP? Soccerland’s population is not happy that, eventually, Handeggland is going to have higher GDP than their country. They feel that they are a much better country, so they are going to work harder to ensure that Handeggland will never catch up with Soccerland.
