Answer 1

To calculate the GDP of Country A, we apply the formula GDP = C + I + G + (X - M) with the given figures. After calculations, we find that the GDP is $3,030 billion, which is not listed among the provided options.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Country A, we use the formula GDP = C + I + G + (X - M), where C stands for consumption, I stands for investment, G stands for government spending, X stands for exports, and M stands for imports.

Using the provided figures:

We calculate GDP as follows:

GDP = $2,000 billion (C) + $50 billion (I) + $1,000 billion (G) + ($20 billion (X) - $40 billion (M))

GDP = $2,000 billion + $50 billion + $1,000 billion + (- $20 billion)

GDP = $3,030 billion

Based on the calculations above, the correct answer is not listed among the provided options. The correct dollar value of GDP for Country A is $3,030 billion.
