Answer to Question 1

The effect is quite substantial.
In 2006, the output of non-tradable goods accounted for about 46 of U.S. GNP. Along with haircuts, non-tradable goods include routine medical treatment, housing etc. For the most part, non-tradable goods are comprised of services, and the output of the construction industry. Non-tradable help explain much of the wide departure from PPP that is present in empirical data.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
