Table 7P - 1 shows the price of inputs and the price of outputs at each step in the production process of mak ing a shirt Assume that each of these steps takes place within the country . [LO 7.1 , 7.3 ] a. What is the total contribution of this shirt to GDP , using the standard expenditure method ? b . If we use a value -added method (i.e , summing the value added by producers at each step of the production process , equal to the value of output minus the price of inputs ) , what is the contribu tion of this shirt to GDP ? c If we mistakenly added the price of both inter mediate and final outputs without adjusting for value added , what would we find that this shirt contributes to GDP ? By how much does this overestimate the true contribution
Crusoe will live this period and the next period as the lone inhabitant of his island. His only income is a crop of 100 coconuts that he harvests at the begin- ning of each period. Coconuts not consumed in the current period spoil at the rate of 10 percent per period. (LO5) a. Draw Crusoe’s intertemporal budget constraint. What will be his consump- tion in each period if he regards future consumption as a perfect, one-for- one substitute for current consumption? b. What will he consume each period if he regards 0.8 unit of future consump- tion as being worth 1 unit of current consumption?

Thanks! Suppose that annual output in year 1 in a 3-good economy is 3 quarts of ice cream, 1 bottle of shampoo, and 3 jars of peanut butter. In year 2, the output mix changes to 5 quarts of ice cream, 2 bottles of shampoo, and 2 jars of peanut butter. If the prices in both years are $4 per quart for ice cream, $3 per bottle of shampoo, and $2 per jar of peanut butter, what was the economy’s nominal GDP in year 1? Show the calculation. Year one (3*$4)+(1*$3)=$12+$3+$6=$21 Recall that GDP is the core measure of an economy's health. Nominal GDP (also known as current–dollar economic statistics) is not adjusted to account for any price changes. To calculate nominal GDP (the value of all final goods and services evaluated at current-year prices) you have to use the formula: Nominal GDP= P*Q. To get a real picture of a nation's economic growth economists prefer using real GDP. To calculate real…arrow_forward
