Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The GDP deflator is a measure of the level of prices of all new, domestically produced, final goods and services in an economy in a year, relative to a base year. A GDP deflator of 106 in 1993, compared to the base year of 1991, indicates that the overall level of prices has increased by 6% since the base year. However, this information alone does not tell us whether the real GDP (which is adjusted for inflation) has increased, decreased, or remained the same, because the GDP deflator does not directly measure the volume of goods and services produced. It only measures the price level relative to the base year.
