Consider the following data on U.S. GDP: Year Nominal GDP GDP Deflator (Billions of dollars) (Base year 2009) 2016 18,707 105.93 1996 8,073 73.18 The growth rate of nominal GDP between 1996 and 2016 was , and the growth rate of the GDP deflator between 1996 and 2016 was . (Hint: The growth rate of a variable XX over an NN-year period is calculated as 100×((XfinalXinitial)(1N)−1)100×XfinalXinitial1N−1) Measured in 2009 prices, real GDP was billion in 1996 and billion in 2016.

The (real) GDP per capita in Belgium (in €) is provided for several years in the table below: year GDP 2010 33 509.07 2011 33 641.30 2012 33 443.71 2013 33 259.76 2014 33 728.14 2015 34 028.24 2016 34 209.76 a. Let us denote GDP in year t by Yt. Determine the percentage change for each year using the formula rt = Y-Y-1. Compare the results to the log-returns In (). 1 b. You are also given that Y1990 = 25 039.06. Again compare the percentage change over the period 1990-2016 with the corresponding log-return. There are several reasons why percentage changes are often approximated by log-returns. One of the reasons is that the logarithm has nice mathematical properties. For example: log-returns allow for easier time aggregation as is illustrated in parts c. and d. below. c. Show that the percentage change Y2016-Y2013 over the three-year period from 2013 to 2016 equals (1+r2016) (1+r2015)(1+r2014) - 1. d. Show that the log-return In (Y2016) for the same period is simply the sum of the…
