Answer:

a) real GDP =$20,000,000

b)velocity of money is 2.50

Explanation:

Nominal GDP is normal spending carried out in terms of dollars.

Nominal GDP is the product of real GDP and price level

Nominal GDP= real GDP*Price level

Given the nominal GDP=$25 million and the price level =1.25 then,

$25000000=real GDP *1.25

$25000000/1.25 = real GDP

$20000000= real GDP

Apply the quantity equation in economics which is;

money supply*velocity of money =price level * real GDP

Given the money supply is=$10,000,000 then,

velocity of money = (price level*real GDP)/money supply

velocity of money = (1.25*20,000,000)/10,000,000

velocity of money =2.50

Real GDP and the velocity of money is $20,000,000 and 2.5

 

Given that;

Nominal GDP = $25

Price level = 1.25

Money supply = $10 million

Find:

Real GDP and the velocity of money

Computation:

Nominal GDP = Real GDP × Price level

25,000,000 = Real GDP × 1.25

Real GDP = 25,000,000 / 1.25

Real GDP = $20,000,000

Price level × Real GDP = Money supply × Velocity of money

1.25 × 20,00,000 = 10,000,000 × Velocity of money

Velocity of money = 2.5
