    a. $12,332.2 billion

    b. $3218.9 billion

    c. $3093.5 billion

    d. $18120.5 billion

    Explanation:

    a. The value of Consumption Expenditure = Sum of consumption expenditure on all goods and services

    = $1,367.1 billion + $2,666 billion + $8,299.1 billion

    = $12,332.2 billion

    b. The value of Government Expenditure = Sum of expenditure by federal Government and State & Local government

    = $1224.0 billion + $1994.9 billion

    = $3218.9 billion

    c. Gross Investment = Sum of investment and inventories

    =Non-residential fixed investment + Residential fixed investment + Change in private inventories

    = $2336.2 billion + $645.4 billion + $111.9 billion

    = $3093.5 billion

    d. Nominal GDP = C + I + G + (X-M)

    = $12332.2 billion + $3093.5 billion + $3218.9 billion + ($2264.9 billion - $2789 billion)

    = $18120.5 billion
