Answer:

1.Georgeland has an absolute but not a comparative advantage in producing clothing.

Explanation:

Georgeland has an absolute advantange, because with the factors of production that it has available (the question does not specify the amount), it can produce either more food, or more clothing than Alland.

But Georgeland does not have comparative advantage in producing clothing, because the cost of opportunity of doing so is higher than Alland's, as can be seen in this comparison:

If Alland produces 16 units of clothing, it gives up on 32 units of food.

If Georgeland produces 18 units of clothing, it gives up on 36 units of food.

Suppose an economy produces only burgers and bags of fries. In 2010, 4000 burgers are sold at $3 each and 6000 bags of fires are
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Nominal GDP:

= (No. of burgers sold × Selling price of each) + (No. of fries sold × Selling price of each)

= (4000 × 3) + (6000 × 1.5)

= 12,000 + 9,000

= $21,000

Real GDP (in 2008 prices)

= (No. of burgers sold × Selling price of each) + (No. of fries sold × Selling price of each)

= (4,000 × $2.50) + (6000 × $2)

= 10,000 + 12,000

= $22,000

GDP deflator:

= (Nominal GDP ÷ Real GDP) × 100

=  (21000 ÷ 22000) × 100

= 95.45
