Answer:
(i) Base year prices
(ii) between two consecutive years
Explanation:
formula for GDP deflator is (real GDP)/(nominal GDP) x 100 which is the numerator real GDP where prices are valued at the current year adjusted to inflation or deflation and then the denominator where prices are valued at a base year where prices are valued at a nominal year which are not adjusted to any inflation or deflation.
The CPI ( consumer price index) is calculated by determining the rise or fall in price of a good or goods in two consecutive periods which in turn gives us the increase or decrease in price percentage.
This attitude reflects ageism.

TRUE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Answer:
a. What is the MRP per driver per day?
- the marginal revenue product per driver = 60 packages x $20 = $1,200 per day
b. Now suppose that a union forces the company to place a supervisor in each vehicle at a cost of $300 per supervisor per day. The presence of the supervisor causes the number of packages delivered per vehicle per day to rise to 60 packages per day What is the MRP per supervisor per day? By how much per vehicle per day do firm profits fall after supervisors are introduced?
- if the drivers were already delivering 60 packages per day without the supervisor, then the addition of the supervisor doesn't change anything. So the MRP of the supervisor is $0. That means that the company's profits will decrease by $300 per day due to the supervisors.
c. How many packages per day would each vehicle have to deliver in order to maintain the firm's profit per vehicle after supervisors are introduced?
- $300 / 20 = 15 packages per day
- in order to maintain the profit per vehicle, each team of delivery man + supervisor should be able to deliver 75 packages per day.
d. Suppose that the number of packages delivered per day cannot be increased but that the price per deliver might potentially be raised. What price would the firm have to charge for each delivery in order to maintain the firm's profit per vehicle after supervisors are introduced?
- $300 / 60 = $5
- the price of each package delivered should increase by $5 to $25 per package.
