Respuesta :

Answer:

108.34

Explanation:

The computation of gross domestic product (GDP) deflator in 2016 is shown below:-

For computing the Gross domestic Product deflator first we need to find out the Nominal GDP of 2016 and Real GDP of A, B and C which is here below:-

Nominal GDP of 2016 = ($3 × 200) + ($2 × 400) + ($5 × 500)

= $600 + $800 + $2,500

= $3,900

Real GDP of A, B and C = Price base Year 2015 × Quantity current year 2016

= $2 × 200 + $3 × 400 + $4 × 500

= $400 + $1,200 + $2,000

= $3,600

Gross domestic Product deflator = Nominal Gross domestic Product ÷ Real Gross domestic Product × 100

= $3,900 ÷ $3,600 × 100

= 108.34
