A variable identified as nominal is one that is measured in current dollars. Using the data above, calculate the following: (Enter your responses rounded to two decimal places.) LOADING... The GDP deflator is nothing. Relative to potential real GDP, real GDP is nothing percent above potential real GDP.

Nominal GDP and Real GDP are described below

Explanation:

The nominal value of a good is its value in terms of money. The real value is its value in terms of some other good, service, or bundle of goods.

Examples:

Nominal: That CD costs $18. Japan’s science and technology spending is about 3 trillion yen per year.

Real: A year of college costs about the value of a Toyota Camry. Those tickets to see Van Halen cost me three weeks’ worth of food!

2.Nominal GDP is the market value of goods and services produced in an economy, unadjusted for inflation. Real GDP is nominal GDP, adjusted for inflation to reflect changes in real output. Trends in the GDP deflator are similar to changes in the Consumer Price Index, which is a different way of measuring inflation.

3.. Therefore, nominal GDP will include all of the changes in market prices that have occurred during the current year due to inflation or deflation. ... In order to abstract from changes in the overall price level, another measure of GDP called real GDP is often used.

4.The main difference between nominal GDP and real GDP is the adjustment for inflation. Since nominal GDP is calculated using current prices it does not require any adjustments for inflation. This makes comparisons from quarter to quarter and year to year much simpler to calculate and analyze.

5.Real Gross Domestic Product or real GDP is a measure of the value of economic output like inflation or deflation of prices . Nominal GDP on the other hand is a figure which has not been adjusted for any inflation.
