Respuesta :

Answer:

C. The price level has risen.

Explanation:

GDP deflator = (Nominal GDP ÷ Real GDP) × 100

GDP deflator of 2017=(10,000 ÷ 9,500) × 100

= 105.263158

GDP deflator of 2018

= (12,000 ÷ 10,500) × 100

=114.285714

Inflation = (Consumer price index of 2018 - Consumer price index of 2017) ÷ CPI of 2017) × 100

=((114.285714 - 105.263158) ÷ 105.263158) × 100

=8.57142819

=8.57%

From 2017 to 2018  the price level increased by 8.57%
