Which one of the following combinations shows the correct relationship between the three variables?
Table 1
| Nominal GDP growth | Real GDP growth | Inflation | |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | +3% | +1% | +1% |
| B | -1% | -3% | +2% |
| C | +4% | +2% | -2% |
| D | -4% | -1% | -4% |
Nominal GDP growth: +3%+3\%+3%, Real GDP growth: +1%+1\%+1%, Inflation: +1%+1\%+1%
Nominal GDP growth: −1%-1\%−1%, Real GDP growth: −3%-3\%−3%, Inflation: +2%+2\%+2%
Nominal GDP growth: +4%+4\%+4%, Real GDP growth: +2%+2\%+2%, Inflation: −2%-2\%−2%
Nominal GDP growth: −4%-4\%−4%, Real GDP growth: −1%-1\%−1%, Inflation: −4%-4\%−4%
