16. GDP Growth Consider the following data on U.S. GDP: Year GDP (Billions of current dollars) (Billions of 2009 dollars) 2011 1

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The percentage change in nominal GDP from 2013 to 2014 was 4.29%

The percentage change in real GDP from 2012 to 2013 was 1.48%

The percentage change in real GDP from 2012 to 2013 was higher than the percentage change in real GDP from 2011 to 2012. FALSE

Explanation:

In order to calculate this we just have to calculate the percentages with a rule of thirds:

$\frac{GDP1}{100}= \frac{GDP2}{x}$

To calculate the first one we use the nominal GDP which is the GDP with the current market value:

$\frac{GDP1}{100}= \frac{GDP2}{x}\\\frac{16,663.2}{100}= \frac{17,348.1 }{x}\\x=\frac{(100)(17,348.1}{16,663.2} \\x=4.29%$

To calculate the change in real GDP we use the values adapted to a pre-agreed monetary value, in this case the dollar at 2009:

$\frac{GDP1}{100}= \frac{GDP2}{x}\\\frac{15,354.6}{100}= \frac{15,583.3}{x}\\x=\frac{(100)(15,583.3}{15,354.6} \\x=1.48%$

To calculate the 2011 to 2012 we insert the values:

$\frac{GDP1}{100}= \frac{GDP2}{x}\\\frac{ 15,020.6}{100}= \frac{15,354.6}{x}\\x=\frac{(100)(15,354.6}{ 15,020.6} \\x=2.22%$

So with this we know that it is wasn´t higher the percentage change from 2012-2013, than that of 2011-2012

Dan sells newspapers. Dan says that a 8 percent increase in the price of a newspaper will decrease the quantity of newspapers de

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

For Dan, the demand is price inelastic

Explanation:

One of the factors tat affect the quantity demand for a product is the price of the product. According to the law of demand, at lower price more quantity of a product would be purchased than at a higer price, all other this being being equal.

Price elasticity of Demand (PED)

The extent to which a change in price will cause a change in the quantity demand for a product is called the price elasticity of demand. It measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demand to a change in price.

It is calculated as

PED =% change in quantity demand / % change in price.

For Dan Newspaper , the price elasticity of demand

= 4%/8%

= 0.5

If the PED is greater than 1, the demand is price elastic

If the PED is less than 1 , demand is price inelastic

For Dan, the demand is price inelastic

Nico bought 500 shares of a stock for $24.00 per share on January 1, 2013. He received a dividend of $2.50 per share at the end

klemol [59]

Answer:

22.92%

Explanation:

For computing the realized total rate of return, first we have to determine the total share price which is shown below:

Total share price = Sale price of share + dividend end of 2013 + dividend end of 2014 + dividend end of 2015

= $20 + $2.5 + $4 + $3

= $29.50

And, the purchase price is $24

So, the return would be

= Total share price - purchase price

= $29.50 - $24

= $5.50

Now the realized total rate of return would be

= Return ÷ Purchase price

= $5.50 ÷ $24

= 22.92%

This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
