Suppose that natural rate of unemployment is
5%, and the actual rate of unemployment is
8.3% per current year.
Determine the potential GDP, if:
• Okun's coefficient -- 3,
• actual GDP -- 1480 units.
How to calculate potential gdp and natyral rate of unemployment?
The level of real GDP in the long run is called Potential GDP.
Potential GDP is the total numerical value of GDP before inflation is counted in. Real GDP is nominal GDP adjusted for inflation
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.
There are two types of GDP.such as 1)Potential GDP,2) Nominal GDP

Look up Okun's law.

It is 100*(New GDP - Old GDP)/Old GDP
[ (GDP 2006 - GDP 2005) / GDP 2005] X 100 ---- ----
There are two types of GDP.such as 1)Potential GDP,2) Nominal GDP
To calculate the GDP deflator, divide the nominal GDP by the real GDP and multiply by 100. The formula is: GDP Deflator (Nominal GDP / Real GDP) x 100. This measure helps adjust for inflation and shows how much prices have changed over time.
GDP Deflator = Nominal GDP/Real GDP x 100.
at the equilibrium level of GDP + formula
if gdp is 719.1 and consumption is 443.8, how do i compute consumption as a percentage of gdp?
