Respuesta :

Answer:

Consider the calculations below

Explanation:

(1) Nominal GDP, year 2 ($) = Sum of (Year 2 price x Year 2 quantity)

= 125 x 1.5 + 825 x 90

= 187.5 + 74,250

= 74,437.50

(2) Real GDP, year 2 ($) = Sum of (Year 1 price x Year 2 quantity)

= 1 x 125 + 45 x 825

= 125 + 37,125

= 37,250.00
