Explanation / Answer

GDP at period 0= 100

GDP at the end of period 23 = 3270

To calculate the growth rate, we can use the formula as follows:

growth rate % = (ending value at 23 year/ ending value at 0 year )^(1/T) -1

where T is the number of period in between i.e. 23 years in this case

Growth rate % = (3270/100)^(1/23)-1 = 16.37% per year
