Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

To calculate the growth rate, it is necessary to calculate the growth rates using first 2012 and then 2013 prices and then take the average of the two rates. This procedure gives:
Real GDP in 2012 using 2012 prices = 150
Real GDP 2013 using 2012 prices = 350
Real GDP 2012 using 2013 prices = 250
Real GDP 2013 using 2013 prices = 600
Growth rate using 2012 prices = 133.3 percent
Growth rate using 2013 prices = 140.0 percent
Hence the growth rate equals 136.7 percent, the average of 133.3 percent and 140.0 percent.
