GDP we use the constant price for 2004 which was $20. Real GDP (base year 2004) 2004 ($20 per CD x 100 CD’s) + ($110 per racquet x 200 racquets) = 24000 2005 ($20 per CD x 120 CD’s) + ($110 per racquet x 210 racquets) = 25500 By what percentage did real GDP grow? Because the Real GDP was $24000 in 2004 and $25500 in 2005‚ real GDP grew by ($25500 - $24000) / $24000 = 0.0625 or 6.25% 2. Calculate the value of the price index for GDP for 2005 using 2004 as the base year. If we use
