Picture 1
Which GDP table matches the description? Why do you think so?
GDP table 2 matches economy A. This is because the economy starts off steady at 9.2%
7% and 4.5% then has a crash of -6.9% the next year and then later recovers and stabilizes out
back to 9.5% 8.5% etc...
Which unemployment rate graph matches these pieces? Why?
Unemployment graph 3 matches economy A because it starts off steady at the
beginning of the graph and then spikes up to 7% from 2% in the next 2 years. After that,
the rate steadily decreases back down and is steady till the end.
Which inflation rate graph matches these pieces? Why?
The inflation graph that would match economy A is graph 1. This is because the inflation
rate doesn’t move a significant amount throughout the whole graph. In economy A after the
crash the economy recovered quickly. This wouldn't have a significant effect on inflation, which
is true in the graph
Which photograph matches these pieces? Why?
The photograph that matches the description of economy A is photograph 1. This is
because in the picture a trade surplus happens and then after that those industries start to
decline. This would happen in economy A because they were steadily growing then the
economy crashed, which would lead to a surplus in goods then lead to declining growth for the
economy as a whole.
Picture 2
Which GDP table matches the description? Why do you think so?
GDP table 1 matches Economy B because the description talks about frequent economic
struggles with financial crisis and trade partners experiencing crisis and the table reveals a rapid
decrease in GDP by 10% before beginning to resolve itself.
Which unemployment rate graph matches these pieces? Why?
Unemployment graph 2 matches these pieces because the rate starts fairly high and
then begins to decrease, before facing even more economic struggles and increasing rapidly
before beginning to decrease again. These changes mirror the changes that happened to the
GDP graph. This graph also matches the description in Economy B where the economy was
already attempting to recover from economic crisis at the beginning because the
unemployment rate starts high.
Which inflation rate graph matches these pieces? Why?
The inflation rate that matches these pieces is graph 3 because inflation begins to
deflate with consistent economic struggles and then rapidly increases. The rapid increase
mirrors the devaluation of currency that the government put in place near the end of the
description of economy B.
Which photograph matches these pieces? Why?
Photograph 2 matches these pieces because there is no discussion of the kind of
products that is sold in the country in the economy description, and it is reasonable to thing
that people would protest with inflation rates rising to 26% before beginning to fall again.
Picture 3
Which GDP table matches the description? Why do you think so?
GDP 3 matches because there were new jobs created which then led to increase in worker
productivity, this made businesses have strong earnings while keeping cost low which is shown
in the GDP table because it started off low and then went up and was at a steady pace.
Which unemployment rate graph matches these pieces? Why?
Unemployment graph 1 matches because it started off a higher than normal and then jobs were
created which led to the slow decrease in unemployment.
Which inflation rate graph matches these pieces? Why?
Inflation graph 2 matches because the economy created more jobs which made consumer
spending go up, which then leads to inflation to increase and you can see in the GDP graph that
the productivity consistently goes up every year.
Which photograph matches these pieces? Why
Photo 3 matches because the description of the photo says they created new jobs and in the
description of the economy it says that they created new jobs and are were innovative.
