Calculate Gross Domestic Product Deflator in the given table.
Suppose the Nominal Gross
Domestic Product and Real Gross Domestic Product for two years of the economy
of Pakistan are given below. Calculate Gross Domestic Product Deflator in the
given table.
Years | Nominal | Real GDP | GDP |
2019 | Rs | Rs 21,000 | ? |
2020 | Rs | Rs | ? |
Solution:
To calculate the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) deflator, we can use the formula:
GDP Deflator = (Nominal GDP / Real GDP) * 100
Using the given data, we can calculate the GDP deflator for each year:
For 2019:
GDP Deflator = (25,000 / 21,000) * 100
= 119.05
For 2020:
GDP Deflator = (41,000 / 39,000) * 100
= 105.13
Therefore, the GDP deflator for 2019 is approximately 119.05, and the GDP deflator for 2020 is approximately 105.13.
