The CPI measures approximately the same economic phenomenon as
a. nominal GDP
b. real GDP
c. the GDP deflator
d. the unemployment rate.
Equivalent of Consumer Price Index.
Option ‘c’ is the correct answer.
Option (c)
CPI and GDP deflator both measures the overall level of prices in the economy. Thus, option ‘c’ is correct.
Option (a)
Nominal GDP measures the value of the economic output at current market prices. So option ‘a’ is incorrect.
Option (b)
Real GDP measures the value of the economic output adjusted for price changes. Hence option ‘b’ is incorrect.
Option (d)
Unemployment rate measures the level of unemployment in the economy. So, option ‘d’ is incorrect.
