Please explain this GDP question; why is it 200 and not 20???
Hi, to do away with your doubt as to why the GDP deflator is 200 and not 20, I will solve it for you. I looked at all the possible formulas that could be used in calculating GDP deflator, however, the answer that I got was 2000 and not 200 (or 20). 2000 is not present in the options.
GDP Deflator = (Nominal GDP*100)/Real GDP
= ($600,000,000,000* 100)/$30,000,000,000
= 2000
GDP Deflator is the ratio of current prices to base year prices.
Therefore, GDP Deflator of 2000 means that if we take the price to
be 100 then our current prices have become 20 times of the base
price. Hope this helps.
So, I would suggest you to have a relook at the figures once.

Question 1 1 pts Suppose GDP consists of wheat and rice. In 2005, 20 bushels of wheat are sold at $4 per bushel, and 10 bushels of rice are sold at $2 per bushel. In 2004, 20 bushels of wheat are sold at $2 per bushel and 10 bushels of rice are sold at $1 per bushel. Using 2004 as the base year, it follows that, for 2005. Nominal GDP is $100, real GDP is $50, and the GDP Deflator...
