6. Problems and Applications Q6 Consider an economy that produces only chocolate bars. In year 1, the quantity produced is 3 bar

s and the price is $2. In year 2, the quantity produced is 5 bars and the price is $4. In year 3, the quantity produced is 7 bars and the price is $6. Using year 1 as the base year, compute nominal GDP, real GDP, and the GDP deflator for each year. Year Nominal GDP Real GDP GDP Deflator (Dollars) (Dollars) Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 The percentage growth rate of real GDP from year 2 to year 3 is % . The inflation rate as measured by the GDP deflator from year 2 to year 3 is % .

Answer:

Year 1 GDP Deflator is 100%

Year 2 GDP Deflator is 30%

Year 3 GDP Deflator is 14.29%

Inflation Rate between year 2 and year 3 is 50%

The Real GDP growth Rate for Year 2 and year 3 is 110%

Step-by-step explanation:

Year 1  

 Price of chocolate bar is $2 and 3 bars are sold that year so the real GDP is 3 x $2=$6 which we are also given that this year is the nominal base year so the nominal GDP is also $6. GDP is the sum of all market value produced products in an economy. Therefore that’s why we calculated as the price of a chocolate multiplied the number produced. To calculate the GDP Deflator will be as follows:

GDP Deflator= (nominal GDP/Real GDP) x 100

                      = ($6/$6) x 100

                       = 100%  

Year 2

Price of chocolate bars is $4 per bar and 5 bars were produced therefore Real GDP =$4 x 5 = $20, now we will calculate the GDP deflator as we have been told that year  is the nominal year therefore nominal GDP is $6.

GDP Deflator= (nominal GDP/Real GDP) x 100

                       = ($6/$20) x100

                        = 30%

Year 3

Price of chocolate bars is $6 per bar and 7 bars were produced therefore Real GDP =$6 x 7 =$42, now we calculate the GDP deflator as we have been told that year 1 is the nominal year therefore nominal GDP is $6.

GDP Deflator = (nominal GDP/ Real GDP) x 100

                      = ($6/$42)

                       =14.29%

Now we calculate the inflation rate between year 2 and year 3.we use the CPI (consumer price index to get the inflation rate for year 2 ad 3)

Consumer Price Index = (Current price of bar/previous price of bar) x 100 formula for CPI

                      = ($6/$4) x 100= 150%-100%

                         = 50% is the inflation rate as the consumer price gave us a positive value.

Now we compute the real GDP growth rate between year 2 and year 3

Real GDP growth rate = [  (current Real GDP- Previous Real GDP)/Previous Real GDP] x 100

                                      = ($42-$20)/$20

                                       = 110% so real GDP grew by 110% from year 2 to year 3.

A researcher found a study relating the value of a car, y, to the age of the car, x. When researchers looked at the association
vredina [299]

Answer: c) About 16% of the variation in value of the car is explained by a linear relationship with the age of the car.

e) The correlation coefficient, r, is 0.397.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Coefficient of determination (r²) between two variables, age of car (x) and value of car (y) = 0.158

Correlation of determination (r²) of 0.158 = (0.158 × 100% = 15.8% of the variation between the two variables can be explained by the regression line). Hence, about 16% of the variation between age and value of car can be explained by the linear relationship.

Coefficient of correlation (r) = sqrt(r²) = sqrt(0.158) = 0.397

(A) The weight of cans of vegetables is normally distributed with a mean of 1380 grams and a standard deviation of 80 grams. Wha
pychu [463]

Answer:

7.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

μ = 1380

σ = 80  

n = 15  

P(x>1410)  

= (1410-1380)/((80)/(sqrt(15)))

= 1.4524  

P(z>1.4524) = 0.4265  (from the graph)

P(z>1.4524) = 0.5 - 0.4265 = 0.0735

the letters that spell Mississippi are each written on separate tiles lying face down on a table. a tile is selected at random,
Mars2501 [29]

Answer: The theoretical probability of choosing a tile with letter P =0.18


Step-by-step explanation:

Given word = MISSISSIPPI

Total number of letters in given the word = 11

Number of letter P in given word = 2

Let A be a event of choosing a tile with a letter P then

P(A) =Number of tiles with letter P / Total letters in given word

= 2 /11 = 0.18

Which expression can be used to find 17% of 58?
posledela

Answer:

58 times 0.17 which agrees with answer C in the given list of possible answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that 17% in math terms is 17/100 = 0.17

Now to find the 17% of the number 58, we need to multiply 58 by 17/100, which gives:

58 times 0.17
