Real GDP is calculated in a way such that goods and services are evaluated at some constant set of prices. Since these prices remain fixed, if the Real GDP changes, we can be sure that it is the volume of production which is undergoing changes. Nominal GDP, on the other hand, is simply the value of GDP at the current prevailing prices.
When the value of final goods and services are estimated at current price, it is?
Nominal G.D.P.
The correct answer is **Nominal G.D.P.**.
- **Nominal GDP** is the **value of goods and services measured at current market prices**.
- **Real GDP**, on the other hand, is calculated using constant prices to adjust for inflation.
- **(a) Real GDP** → Incorrect, as it measures production at constant prices.
- **(c) GDP at constant prices** → Incorrect, as it is another term for Real GDP.
- **(d) Consumer Price Index** → Incorrect, as CPI measures inflation, not GDP.
