00:01 Compute nominal real gdp and gdp deflator using 2020 as the base year.
00:10 So nominal gdp is going to be prices of the current year multiplied by the quantity of the current year.
00:20 So for 2020, nominal gdp is going to be the price of milk times the quantity of milk plus the price of honey times the quantity of honey.
01:03 So we get 200.
01:07 So in this case, real gdp is going to be the same because we haven't had inflation yet.
01:15 Then gdp deflator is nominal gdp over real gdp times 100.
01:34 So we can see that in this case, because they're the same, gdp is just going to be 100 or gdp deflator is 100.
01:52 So then for the year 2021, nominal gdp would be 1 times 200 plus 2 times 100.
02:15 So we're going to have 200 plus 200 is equal to 400.
02:26 So then real gdp, we're going to use the prices from the base year.
02:36 So in the base year, it was $1 for milk.
02:44 So it's the same price.
02:45 And then we're going to multiply by the quantity in the year 2021.
02:50 And then we're going to do the same for honey.
02:55 So in this case, you could see that they actually turn out to be the same for 2021.
03:03 So gdp deflator is again 100.
03:09 So then 2022, we're going to calculate nominal gdp using the current year prices and quantities.
03:23 So we have 2, the price of milk times 200, the quantity of milk plus 4, price of honey times 100, the quantity of honey.
03:33 So that gives you $800.
03:52 So then for real gdp, we're going to use the base year prices.
04:09 So we have $1 for the milk times 200 quarts of milk plus $2 for the honey times 100 quarts of honey.
04:29 So it's equal to 200 plus 200 equals 400...
