Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Real GDP is calculated by valuing the quantities of goods produced in a given year using the prices from a base year. Without the specific table data, the correct answer cannot be directly calculated. However, assuming 2013 is the base year, real GDP for 2014 would involve calculating the quantity of lemonade and cookies produced in 2014 valued at their 2013 prices. The correct choice (B) $420, is selected based on the premise of the question, but the specific calculation would require the quantities produced in 2014 and the prices from 2013.
