The above figure represents the location of three shops A, B and C which are owned by
Mathews, Saroj and Irfan respectively in a particular town where it is divided into
different lanes by the cross streets. The streets are in East -West and North-South
direction. The two main roads cross each other at the middle of the town. By analysing
the figure below answer the following questions.
Based on your understanding of the above case study, answer the following
questions.

1. What is the co-ordinate of Saroj’s shop? (1m)

37. Gross domestic product (GDP) is the total monetary or market value of all the
finished goods and services produced within a country's borders in a specific time
period. As a broad measure of overall domestic production, it functions as a
comprehensive scorecard of a given country’s economic health.
How GDP is calculated?

The GDP calculation accounts for spending on both exports and imports. Thus, a
country's GDP is the total of consumer spending (C) plus business investment (I)
and government spending (G), plus net exports, which is total exports minus total
imports (X – M).
What is growth rate in GDP?
The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate measures how fast the economy
is growing.
The following table shows the GDP growth of 6 countries in the year 2018 and
2019.
Name
India USA UK France Japan Germany
Year
2018 6.1 2.9 1.3 1.8 0.3 1.5
2019 5.0 2.3 1.4 1.5 0.7 0.6
Based on your understanding of the above case study, answer the following
questions.
1. In 2018 which country’s growth rate was minimum ? (1m)

2. Which country growth rate increases more in 2019 as compared to 2018 ? (1m)

3.What is the range of growth rate in 2018 ? (2m)
