Explanation / Answer

Hi,

As per Chegg guidelines, we are required to answer only first question, but I will try to answer all the questions.

Ans 24. (B) because the growth rate in output can only be achieved by increasing the capital accumulation.

Ans 25. For the first 3 years, real interest = Nominal interest rate - inflation rate

r = 4%-3% = 1%

For the last 2 years,

r= 4%- (-3%) = 8%

(A) because the real interest is greater than nominal interest rate only for the last 2 years.

Ans. 26. (B) When real GDP falls and nominal gdp rises then it means the inflation or price level has increased. The real gdp ignores the price level and only takes the growth of the output.
