Expert Solution

Year Nominal GDP  Real GDP  GDP Deflator
  (Dollars) (Base Year 2014, Dollars) (Nominal GDP/Real GDP*100)
2014 33000 33000 100
2015 52350 44300 118.17
2016 100000 56000 178.57

 

Year Nominal GDP  Real GDP  GDP Deflator
  (Dollars) (Base Year 2014, Dollars) (Nominal GDP/Real GDP*100)
2014 =(1000*20)+(500*10)+(100*80) =(1000*20)+(500*10)+(100*80) =33000/33000*100
2015 =(1500*25)+(550*11)+(110*80) =(1500*20)+(550*10)+(110*80) =52350/44300*100
2016 =(2000*39)+(800*19)+(100*68) =(2000*20)+(800*10)+(100*80) =100000/56000*100

Nominal GDP= Current Year( Price*Quantity)

Real GDP = Current Year Quantity * Base Year Price
