Consider an imaginary economy that has been growing at a rate of 6% per year. government economists have proposed a number of policies to increase the growth rate but first need to convince the president that the policies will pay off. to do so, they want to present a comparison of the number of years it will take for the economy to double, depending on the growth rate. using the rule of 70, determine the number of years it will take the economy to double at each growth rate.

This problem has been solved! see the answerwhich of the following statements is correct? the consumer price index is a measure of the overall level of prices, whereas the gdp deflator is not a measure of the overall level of prices. if, in the year 2011, the consumer price index has a value of 123.50, then the inflation rate for 2011 must be 23.50 percent. compared to the gdp deflator, the consumer price index is the more common gauge of inflation. the consumer price index and the gdp deflator reflect the goods and services bought by consumers equally well.
