ECO403 Macroeconomics-assignment no 1 spring 2012 idea
Due Date: 12th April, 2012 Marks: 15
Assignment:
Chad is under developed country located in Central Africa. Landlocked Chad’s
economic development suffers from its geographic remoteness, lack of infrastructure, lack of basic necessities and political turmoil. About 85 % of the population depends on the agriculture including the herding of livestock. Because of weak agricultural economy, majority of the people belong to middle class and live in cottages. Suppose, during year 2007, among total population, 5 billion people were unemployed and 175 billion people were employed. During the same year, people consumed durable goods worth Rs.300, non-durable goods worth Rs.500 and services worth Rs.300.
In this year, government planned to develop the economy and used Rs.900 for government expenditures. This amount was used for education expenditures, health expenditures, for discovering new oil resources and for industrial sector seriously. These decisions not only improved the sectors mentioned above but also stimulated the business investment. Businessmen invested Rs.300 for the development of their business and used new technology and ways. Government expenditures and businessmen investment affected the international trade positively. In this year, Chad exported crude oil, processed meat and cotton for Rs.350 and imported commodities for domestic use of worth Rs.150. Next year, China and USA invested in the oil sector and built refineries.
This project solved the problem of unemployment for the year 2008, by virtue of this, unemployed and employed values were 3 billion and 187 billion respectively.
Requirements:
Use the above data to calculate Chad’s:
a. Gross domestic product (GDP) for year 2007.
b. Net exports (NX) for year 2007.
c. Labor force for year 2007 and 2008.
d. Unemployment rate for year 2007 and 2008.
e. GDP deflator for year 2007 if real GDP during this year is Rs.2100. Marks: (4+2+3+3+3)
SOLUTION:
ANSWER:
“Chad is under developed country located in Central Africa”.
DATA:
For the year 2007:
Unemployed Population………. 5 billion
Employed Population …………..175 billion
Consumed durable goods………..Rs.300
Consumed Non-durable goods…. Rs.500
Services………………………………… Rs.300
Government Expenditures ………Rs.900
Business Investment ………………Rs.300
Exports………………………………. Rs.350
Imports ………………………………Rs.150
For year 2008:
Unemployed Population……….. 3 billion
Employed Population……………. 187 billion
A) GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT (GDP) FOR YEAR 2007:
Solution:
Consumed durable goods……………. Rs.300
Consumed Non-durable goods……… Rs.500
Services……………………………………. Rs.300
Government Expenditures………….. Rs.900
Business Investment……………………Rs.300
Exports (EX) ………………………………Rs.350
Imports (IM)…………………………….. Rs.150
FORMULA FOR GDB:
Y = C + I + G + NX
Where
Y = GDP = Value of Total Output
C + I + G + NX = Aggregate Expenditure
C=Rs.300+Rs.500+Rs.300
=Rs.1100
NX=Total Exports -Total Imports
=Rs.350-Rs.150
=Rs.200
Now
By applying
Y = C + I + G + NX
=Rs.1100+Rs.300+Rs.900+Rs.200
=Rs.2500
B). NET EXPORTS (NX) FOR YEAR 2007:
FORMULA:
NX= Total Exports -Total Imports
By applying
NX=EX-IN
=Rs.350-Rs.150
=Rs.200
C).LABOR FORCE FOR YEAR 2007 AND 2008:
LABOR FORCE ……………..2007 ……..2008
Unemployed Population …….5 billion ….3 billion
Employed Population ………175 billion …187 billion
Total …………………..180 billion …190 billion
D). UNEMPLOYMENT RATE FOR YEAR 2007 AND 2008:
FORMULA:
Unemployment Rate = Number of Unemployed x 100
……………………………………….Labor Force
BY APPLYING
UNEMPLOYMENT RATE FOR YEAR 2007:
Unemployment Rate = Number of Unemployed x 100
……………………………………….Labor Force
=5/180*100
=2.778%
UNEMPLOYMENT RATE FOR YEAR 2008:
Unemployment Rate = Number of Unemployed x 100
……………………………………….Labor Force
=3/190*100
=1.579%
E).GDP DEFLATOR FOR YEAR 2007:
IF
REAL GDP DURING THIS YEAR IS RS.2100;
NOMINAL GDB FOR YEAR 2007 IS RS.2500
FORMULA:
GDP Deflator = Nominal GDP × 100
……………………..Real GDP
By Appling
GDP Deflator = Nominal GDP × 100
……………………..Real GDP
=2500/2100*100
=Rs.119.04

HERE are just formulas to solve the Assignment you have to calculate it yourself
GDP = Y = C + I + G + NX
NX = EX – IM = Net Exports – Net ImportsFormula for Labor Force
Formula for Labor Force = employed + Unemployed peoples
Formula for Unemployement rate
Formula for Unemployement rate = Number of unemployed x 100
Labore ForceFormula for GDP DEFLATOR
Formula for GDP DEFLATOR = Nominal GDP x 100
Real GDP -
