compare the standard of living of your country to that of the United States (remember that by definition, GDP Per Capita is the universal measure of standard of living, but you may also include other variables if you wish
This week should be a continuation of week 1. Now that you have selected a country and know basic socio-demographic and socio-economic information about it, during week 2, you need to relate it to this week’s material. In particular, we will use the United States – the world’s largest economy – as the comparative. You compare your country to the United States on each of the economic variables listed below.
1. GDP and GDP Per Capita: compare these values for your country with those for the United States, keep the year used as close as possible (the same year is preferred, if available), be specific about the currency in which the numbers are expressed – you should be able to obtain all values in US Dollars. If the values are in Purchasing Power Parity (PPP), do note that – most likely they will be in PPP.
2. Using the data you collected for question 1, compare the standard of living of your country to that of the United States (remember that by definition, GDP Per Capita is the universal measure of standard of living, but you may also include other variables if you wish).
3. What is the most recent inflation rate and does it compare to the inflation rate for the same year in the United States?
4. What is the most recent rate of growth of the country and how does it compare to the economic growth rate for the same year in the United States?
5 What explains the recent economic growth, or lack of growth in your country?
Each week your post must be in a report format, not in a Q&A format. So remember to use paragraphs and a report structure to your post.
—————————
1) Your research paper this week should be between 250 and 350 words. Shorter submissions will be penalized. Longer posts are acceptable only if the extra words add substance to your report. At the bottom of your post, you should include a word count (how many words are in your post).
2) Structure your paper as a report. Do use multiple paragraphs. Do NOT attach your report, instead type it into the text box on the research assignment board.
3) You must cite all the information used in your report and include the sources in your reference listing. Use APA format for citations and references –
4) Remember to include citations to your sources in the body of your post and to provide the references at the end of your post. Where possible, please make the links to any web information clickable links. Remember the references and links must be to the article you used, not just to the web site. Be sure to include the full URL, otherwise your link will not be clickable.

If the government cuts taxes and funds the deficit with debt, household consumption does not change and disposable income rises. If this is a desirable result of tax cuts and deficit spending, is it a good idea for the government to regularly pursue this type of fiscal policy? Why or why not?
- Based on your research and findings from the second e-Activity, answer the following question: If the government cuts taxes and funds the deficit with debt, household consumption does not change and disposable income rises. If this is a desirable result of tax cuts and deficit spending, is it a good idea for the government to regularly pursue this type of fiscal policy? Why or why not?
Economic growth depends in part on the ability of business entities and households to borrow money. Is government borrowing necessary to achieve the same purpose? Is deficit spending financed by debt always undesirable? Why or why not?
Discussion 1: “Government Spending and Its Effect on Households.” Please respond to the following:
Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Per Capita GDP and Quality of Life
This week’s discussion topic is about Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Per Capita GDP and Quality of Life. GDP is the market value of all final goods and services produced in an economy in a year. Per Capita GDP is GDP/Population and shows how much of total GDP is theoretically available to each individual in the society. Per Capita GDP is the normal measure of Standard of Living when comparing nations.
Quality of Life has no standard definition. It is broader concept that attempts to embrace the multitude of variables that make people happy. There are many measures of it, but all include GDP and/or Per Capita GDP.
The ultimate question for this week is: “Is GDP a good measure of national economic well being?”
Part of answering that question is a consideration of whether economic well being for the nation is the same as quality of life for the individual? If not, how would you measure quality of life for the individual?
- Review the concept and details of computing GDP
- Read the article in Chapter 23 in your textbook: “Measuring Macroeconomic Well-Being” (pages 488-489).
- Each post submitted should be between 150 and 250 words. Keep them short, specific, and clear.
