. While it is dilficult to precisely predict future economic glowth' the country's leading economists believe that ifno measures are taken to rcvitalize the economy now (that is' in 2013), the economy will begin to contract and that the futler effect ofsuch contraction will become evident in the year 2018. Various estimates for the year 2018 (al 2018 prices) are:

. The CDP deflators for the years 2003, 2008, and 2012 ate 86, 90, and 100, respectively lf no investment is made in 2013, the estimated deflator for the year 2018 is expected to be 150.

. lf however an investment is made (in Proposal A or Proposal B) in 2013, the real GDP for 2018 (expressed in 2013 dollars) would be $800bn in the case ofProposal A and $820bn in the case ofProposal B. Due to slightly different economic dynamics associated with these two proposals, the cotesponding GDP deflators, for the year 201 8, would be | 60 and 170, respectively.
