Suppose nominal GDP was $360 billion in 1990 and $450 billion in 2000. The appropriate price index (1985 = 100) was 120 in 1990 and 125 in 2000. Between 1990 and 2000 real GDP:
Added by Luisa A.
Step 1
We can do this by dividing the nominal GDP by the price index and then multiplying by 100. For 1990: Real GDP = (Nominal GDP / Price Index) * 100 Real GDP = ($360 billion / 120) * 100 For 2000: Real GDP = (Nominal GDP / Price Index) * 100 Real GDP = ($450 Show more…
