Answer:

B) 1.7

Explanation:

GDP deflator simply shows the occurring event of the level of prices in the economy which is why It is often the ratio of nominal GDP to real GDP.

GDP deflator in 2009 will be:

Norminal GDP

Cost of apple= $1 in 2009

Apple produced =5 in 2009

Cost of oranges= $1.50 in 2009.

Orange produce= 5 in 2009

$1.00*(5)+$1.50*(5)

=5+7.5

=$12.50

Real GDP

Cost of apple= $0.50 in 2002

Apple produced =5 in 2002

Cost of oranges= $1 in 2002

Orange produce= 5 in 2002

0.50*(5)+$1.00*(5)

=2.5+5

=$7.50

GDP deflator = Nominal GDP/Real GDP)

=$12.50/$7.50

=1.666

approximately 1.7

Suppose a firm is producing in the long run. When it produces 4,000 units of output, its total cost is $8,000. When it produces
Scilla [17]

Answer:

increasing then decreasing

Explanation:

production level            total cost             average total cost

4,000                               $8,000                    $2.00

4,200                               $8,200                     $1.95

4,400                               $8,800                    $2.00

Returns to scale measure the change in productivity, or how much input is needed to produce a unit of output.

  • increasing returns to scale: output increases in a greater proportion than inputs
  • constant returns to scale: output increases in the same proportion as inputs
  • decreasing returns to scale: output increases in a lower proportion than inputs

Since first the average total cost decreased, total output increased in a greater proportion than inputs ⇒ increasing returns of scale. But then the situation reversed and total output increased in a lower proportion than inputs ⇒ decreasing returns of scale.
