Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The statement is false. Factors other than real GDP per person affect the standard of living. For instance, factors such as household production, underground production, leisure time, and environmental quality all affect the standard of living and all are omitted from real GDP per person. In addition, the standard of living is influenced by health and life expectancy as well as by the nation's political freedom and social justice, none of which is measured by real GDP per person. Although real GDP per person is an important factor in determining a country's standard of living, it is not the only factor.
