Suppose that in 1994 the total output in a single-good economy was 10,000 buckets of chicken. Also suppose that in 1994 each bucket of chicken was priced at $10. Finally, assume that in 2015 the price per bucket of chicken was $20 and that 25,000 buckets were produced. Instructions: In parts a-b, enter your answer rounded to 1 decimal place.

Answer:

GDP price index is 20

Explanation:

a. To determine the GDP price index we:

1. Determine the market price for the year of interest (1994) by multiplying the total output for that year (10,000) by $10 (the unit price per bucket of chicken for that year)= 10000*10= 100,000

2. Determine the market price for the base year–2015 (using similar steps above).

25000*$20= 500,000.

3. Take the price of the market value of the year of interest and divide by the price of the market value of the base year, then multiply by 100.

100000/500000 *100= 20.
