Explanation:
If the Boskin Commission's estimate was right and consumer price index overstated inflation by 1.1% every year, this is what we can derive about REAL GDP PER CAPITA and GENERAL LIVING STANDARDS IN THE UNITED STATES:
(A) Real Gross Domestic Product per Capita is the total (gross) production per head or per person (per capita) within (domestic) an economy; after accounting or adjusting for inflation. Before adjusting for inflation, we have the Nominal GDP. So the term "real" shows that the value has accounted for inflation. If inflation is positive in the economy, then Real GDP figure will be less than Nominal GDP figure. I hope you understand this background information.
So if consumer price index is overstating inflation, real GDP per capita will be higher than it is perceived/calculated to be, in those years
(B) The general standard of living (which is affected by consumer price index) would also be higher than perceived or calculated.
Note here that the 'general' standard of living is a measure that sums up living standard 'per capita'.

Explanation:
The difference between variable costing and absorption costing methods is that the overheads are treated differently. While absorption costing method does not differentiate the fixed manufacturing overheads from the variable manufacturing costs, the variable costing method only accounts for the variable elements of all costs, whether manufacturing cost or not.
Answer:
Elastic ; greater than 1
Explanation:
We know that
Price elasticity of demand = (Percentage change in quantity demanded) ÷ (Percentage change in price) × 100
Since in the question it is given that the percentage change in quantity demanded is more than the percentage change in price that reflects that the price elasticity is elastic that means it is greater than one.
