Solution

A. The growth rate of nominal GDP is calculated by adding the inflation rate to the growth rate of real GDP. So, in this case, it would be 1% (inflation rate) + -1% (real GDP growth rate) = 0%.

B. The inflation rate is calculated by subtracting the real GDP growth rate from the nominal GDP growth rate. So, in this case, it would be 1.5% (nominal GDP growth rate) - -2.2% (real GDP growth rate) = 3.7%.

C. The real GDP growth rate is calculated by subtracting the inflation rate from the nominal GDP growth rate. So, in this case, it would be 6.5% (nominal GDP growth rate) - 2.5% (inflation rate) = 4%.
