Answer:
The answer is
A. 3.93%
B. 10.42%
Explanation:
The formula for growth rate is:
[(Present value ÷ Past value)^1/n] - 1
where n is the difference between the number of years.
QUESTION A:
Present Real per capita GDP = $700.00
Past Real per capita GDP = $350.00
n is 18 years
[($700/$350)^1/18] - 1
(2^0.055556) - 1
3.93%
QUESTION A:
Past Real per capita GDP = $700.00($1,400.00÷ 2)
Present Real per capita GDP = $1,400.00
n is 7 years
[($1400/$700)^1/7] - 1
(2^0.143) - 1
10.42%
