Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

a. The GDP price index equals (100 )  (nominal GDP  real GDP). In 2010, the GDP price index equals (100 )  (3,300 trillion  3,300 trillion) = 100. Because the GDP price index equals 100, we can determine that 2010 is a base year.
b. In 2011, the GDP price index equals (100 )  (4,200  3,600 ) = 116.67.
