Answer:

A. 90

Explanation:

nominal GDP = 50*20 + 100*8 = 1800

real GDP = 50*10 + 100*15 = 2000

GDP deflator = (nominal GDP/ real GDP)*100 = (1800/2000)*100 = 90

Answer:

a. nominal GDP is $1800, real GDP is $2000, and the GDP deflator is 90

Explanation:

Gross domestic product is the sum of all final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year..

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices.

Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices.

Nominal GDP = (50 × $20) + (100 × $8)

= $1800

Real GDP = (50 × $10) + (100 x $15) = $2000

GDP =( nominal GDP/ real GDP) × 100

($1800/$2000) x 100 = 90
