Answer:
A. $17,280.
Explanation:
First we have to find the depreciation rate which is shown below:

= 20
Now the rate is double So, 40%
In year 2017, the original cost is $120,000, so the depreciation is $48,000 after applying the 50% depreciation rate
And, in year 2018, the ($120,000 - $48,000) × 40% = $28,800
And, in year 2019, ($120,000 - $48,000 - $28,800) × 40% = $17,280
Hence, the first option is correct

Explanation:
If labor productivity fell yet the workforce did not increase, that means that for Years 1 and 2, workers were producing less than they were producing before because the same number of people were producing.
This means that the amount of goods produced in the country would reduce and therefore GDP would reduce as well as GDP is the amount of goods and services produced in a country. If labor productivity had fallen yet the work-hours had increased, the increase in worker hours would have made up for the loss of labor productivity.
