Question:

The table shows index numbers for real GDP (national output) for various countries (2014 100). Using the formula G = (Yt – Yt–1)/Yt–1 100 (where G is the rate of growth, Y is the index number of output, t is any given year and t–1 is the previous year):

(a) Work out the growth rate, G, for each country for each year from 2015 to 2022.

(b) Plot the figures on a graph. Describe the pattern that emerges.
