If you are asked to report the budget​ balance, and that balance is a​ deficit, then it is reported as a negative number. When real GDP is​ $4 trillion, the budget deficit is ​$____ trillion ​>>> Answer to 1 decimal place. Real GDP Tax Revenues Outlays (trillions of dollars) ----------------------------------------------------------------- 3 0.1 0.5 4 0.2 0.4 5 0.3 0.3 6 0.4 0.2 7 0.5 0.1

When the real GDP is $4 trillion, the budget deficit is $0.2 trillion. real GDP =$4 trillion tax revenue =0.2 trillion outlay=0.4 trillion Budget deficit =outlay - tax revenue =0.4-0.2 =0.2 trillion the budget deficit is $0.2 trillion. Real GDP = $4 trillion Tax Revenue = 0.2 trillion Outlay = 0.4 trillion Budget Deficit = Outlay - Tax Revenue = 0.4 - 0.2 = 0.2 trillion
