Answer #1

Answer:

the GDP is different from one another when we use a different base year to calculate the GDP because of the different prices in the base years as to calculate the GDP we multiply the quantities of goods and services of the year with the prices of the base year. the different years have different price levels so when we calculate by different base years with the change in prices the GDP also changes
