Answer to Question 1

Economists have long realized that the level of real GDP per person is not a total measure of a country's standard of living. The United Nations has constructed an index, referred to as HDI, that attempts to measure the well-being of people in a given country. This index takes into account the country's level of real GDP per person as well as also other key factors, such as life expectancy, health, and education levels.
