Answer to Question 1

Disagree. It depends on whether the year being examined is before or after the base year. If after the base year, then nominal GDP will always exceed real GDP if inflation has occurred. If before the base year, then nominal GDP will always be less than real GDP if inflation has occurred. If the year being examined is before the base year and inflation has occurred, then the base year prices will exceed the prices of that year.

Answer to Question 2

C
