Use the bar graph from the World View "GDP per Capita around the World" to answer one question. GDP per Capita (2018) (in U.S. dollars) In 1950, America's GDP per capita was approximately $14,000 (measured in today's dollars). How much higher in percentage terms was America's GDP per capita in 2018? Instructions: Enter your response as a percentage rounded to one decimal place. Use the following equation to measure percentage change: (New value - Old value) ÷ Old value × 100.
Part 2: Practice - Use the GDP data provided to answer the questions Year Population GDP Deflator Nominal GDP 2019 180 100 $8,000 2020 200 120 $12,000 2021 300 - $15,000 6. Calculate the real GDP in Year 2020. Show your work. 7. Calculate the GDP deflator in Year 2021 if the real GDP is $12,000. Show your work. 8. Calculate the rate of real output growth between 2019 and 2020. Show your work. 9. Calculate the real GDP per capita in Year 2020. Show your work. 10. Calculate the real GDP per capita in Year 2021. Show your work. 11. Assume that the real GDP in Year 2022 is $8,000 and the GDP deflator is 200. Calculate the Nominal GDP. Show your work. Part 3 - Stretch Your Thinking - Answer the question: 12. Over time, the CPI tends to estimate higher rates of inflation than the GDP deflator. Identify one reason why this occurs.
