The following table reports real GDP per person for several different economies in the years 1960 and 2010. It also gives each economy's average annual growth rate during this period. For example, real GDP per person in the Central African Republic was $1,010 in 1960, and it actually declined to $628 by 2010. The Central African Republic's average annual growth rate during this period was -0.95%, and it was the poorest economy in the table in the year 2010.
The real GDP-per-person figures are denominated in U.S. dollars with a base year of 2005. The following exercises will help you to understand the different growth experiences of these economies.
What has been the average annual growth rate of U.S. real GDP per person over the 120 years from 1900 to 2020?
In which decade, beginning with the 1960s, was the growth of potential GDP per person greatest and slowest?
Over the 120 years from 1900 to 2020, the average annual growth rate of U.S. real GDP per person is ____ percent
Consider the following table displaying annual growth rates for nations X, Y, and Z, each of which entered 2020 with real per capita GDP equal to $20,000. Annual Growth Rate (%) Country 2020 2021 2022 2023 X 7 1 3 4 Y 4 5 7 9 Z 5 4 3 2 Part 2 a.
