    Answer:

    A) Most of the bananas that are produced by a certain company in Honduras end up in U. S. grocery stores, and the price of these bananas increases.

    Explanation:

    The gross domestic product (GDP) deflator reflects the prices of all the final and legal products and services produced within a country, whereas the consumer price index (CPI) reflects the prices of products and services purchased by consumers. The CPI might include imported goods (e. g. clothes and toys), while the GDP deflator includes only domestic goods.
