Q1.
a. Canadian GDP = Quantity of apples * price of apple + quantity of bananas * price of bananas + quantity of carrots * price of carrots
= 5 * 2 + 10 * 1 + 20 * 1.50
= 50
b. Canadian GDP = New Quantity of apples * price of apple + quantity of bananas * price of bananas + quantity of carrots * price of carrots
= 2 * 2 + 10 * 1 + 20 * 1.50
= 44
c. Canadian GDP = Quantity of apples * price of apple + quantity of bananas * price of bananas + quantity of carrots * price of carrots
60 = 5 * 2 + 10 * 1 + (20 * Price of carrot)
60 = 20 + (20 * Price of carrot)
40 = 20 * price of carrot
40/20 = 2 = Price of carrot

Recall the method of calculating real GDP detailed in the chapter. As you may already have noticed, this method has a problem: in calculating aggregate output, this method weights the output of the various goods and services by their relative prices in the base year. Say, for example, a textbook costs $100 in the base year, and a laptop costs $2,000. This means that the laptop would have 20 times the weight of a book in calculating aggregate output. But what happens when relative prices change? As you know,...
