Answer:
a)
<em>The value added at each stage</em>
Stage Value added($)
1 1000
2 (2000-1000) = 1,000
3 (6,000- 2000) = 4,000
4 (10,000 - 6,000) = 4,000
b)
The amount by GDP is increased = $10,000
c) Reduce GDP
Explanation:
Gross domestic product (GDP) which is the total market value of all the final goods and services produced in a country over a given period of time. The GDP can be calculated using the value added approach.
Here the GPD figure is ascertained by summing the amount of additional value created by each factor of production at each stage of the production process of the final product.
a)
<em>The value added at each stage</em>
Stage Value added($)
1 1000
2 (2000-1000) = 1,000
3 (6,000- 2000) = 4,000
4 (10,000 - 6,000) = 4,000
b)
The amount by GDP is increased = $10,000 which is the total value added or the market value of the final goods
c)
If the lumber were imported it would be deducted from the value of export and thus reduce GDP. Remember that GDP is the market value of all good and service produced within a given country over certain period of time .
Answer:
A.overstate; substitution
Explanation:
Consumer Price Index (CPI): is a measure that examines the weighted average of prices of consumer goods and services, such as transportation, food, and medical care. It is calculated by taking the average of the price changes for each item in the predetermined goods. Changes in the CPI are used to assess price changes associated with the cost of living therefore the CPI is used economist for identifying periods of inflation or deflation.
when we say the CPI overstate inflation; it is because of:
Substitution bias (when the price of a product in the consumer basket increases substantially, consumers tend to substitute lower-priced alternatives; Therefore, it tends to overstate inflation due to a lack of accountability
) and;
Quality bias (over time, technological advances increase the life and usefulness of products).
Options:

Answer:
A) Both Riley and Anh are correct.
Explanation:
to see who is right we can calculate:
PV = FV / (1 + r)ⁿ
FV = PV x (1 + r)ⁿ
Riley's statement:
PV = $700 / (1 + 6%) = $660.38
PV = $700 / (1 + 3%)² = $659.82
Riley is right
Anh's statement:
FV = $700 x (1 + 6%) = $742
FV = $700 x (1 + 3%)² = $742.63
Anh is right
They are both right due to compound interest, since compound interest means that the interest earned will also earn more interest.
