How does a nations real GDP per capita rise per year?
Well, for a nations real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita to rise in a particular year a multitude of things need to occur. First we need to understand that per capita GDP is simply all the goods and services produced in a particular nation within a specific time period. In this case one year, divided amongst the number of people living in that nation. $10,000 GDP divided by 100 citizens = per capita GDP of $100. The second thing that we need to understand is that "real" GDP means that it has been adjusted for inflation, or that the fact that things generally increase in price and there fore weaken the purchasing power of the dollar versus the year prior has be taken into consideration. Once you understand these two things here's what needs to happen to increase a countrys' real GDP per capita. The nations GDP (all the goods and services produced with the nation) must exceed the previous years GDP plus the amount of inflation incurred. If last years GDP was $10,000 and this years is $10,500 with an inflation increase of 3% then you have a real GDP per capita increase of $200. ( $10,000 plus a 3% inflation equals $10,300 minused from the new GDP of $10,500 equals a $200 increase in real GDP percapita )( this is considering a change in population didn't occur) Real GDP per capita is found by dividing real GDP by population.

Define potential GDP under what circumstances does actual real GDP fall short of potential GDP equal potential GDPand exceed potential GDP?
Potential GDP is basically the sum of growth in productivity, growth in labor force, and growth in number of hours worked. In a mature economy like the US, change in number of hours worked is insignificant and often ignored. -Potential GDP is the level of real GDP that the economy would produce if it were at full employment. When real GDP falls short of potential GDP the economy is not at full employment. When the economy is at full employment real GDP equals potential GDP. Real GDP can exceed potential GDP only temporarily as it approaches and then recedes from a business cycle peak.
