Land of Milk and Honey

The real GDP in 2014 is:

= b. $40.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                         Milk           Honey            Total GDP

Cost per gallon in 2014   $2                 $1

Quantity produced           10                 20

Total production value  $20 ($2*10)  $20 ($1*20)    $40 ($20 + $20)

Cost per gallon in 2015   $2                 $1

Quantity produced           12                 24

Total production value  $24 ($2*12)  $24 ($1*24)    $48 ($24+ $24)

Cost per gallon in 2016   $2.50              $1.25

Quantity produced           12                   24

Total production value  $30 ($2.50*12)  $30 ($1.25*24) $60 ($30 + $30)

The real GDP in 2014 is the calculated value of $40.  Using 2015 as the base year, there is no inflation since the unit prices of milk and honey remained the same in both years.

answer; (a) calling people who have not shown interest in the product and asking them to buy it;

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable
