A

Nominal Value/ (Price Index/100)

25
Q

CPI of different items

A

Changes at different rates

26
Q

Substitution Bias

A

As prices rise, consumers switch goods but it appears as though consumers have lost purchasing power

27
Q

Things CPI doesn’t account for

A

Substitution Bias, Unmeasured quality changes, Prices rising and falling drastically

28
Q

Inflation Rising causes

A

purchasing power to decrease

29
Q

Nominal GDP =

A

(Price Level/Index * Real GDP (Y)) OR (Pcy *Qcy) OR (Real GDP *(Aggregate Price Level/100))

30
Q

Nominal GDP measures

A

How much is spent on output in a given period and the value of aggregate output

31
Q

Real GDP

A

Measure of how much the value of aggregate output in constant dollars

32
Q

Real GDP =

A

(Pby * Qcy) OR ((Nominal GDP/ Aggregate Price Level) *100) Real and Nominal GDP are equal to each other at the base

33
Q

GDP Deflator is

A

Changes in prices for all goods and services which show us the aggregate price level

34
Q

GDP Deflator (Implicit price deflator) =

A

((Nominal GDP/ Real GDP) * 100)

35
Q

Inflation Rate =

A

((GDP Deflator cy - GDP Deflator by)/GDP Deflator by ) * 100 OR CPI subsitute
