Answer:
16. Capital goods and Durable consumer goods. (because when people have moreand more / less and less (as per business cycle) income, they can afford buy more/ less of durable goods which costs more- these are not necessities and their purchases can be defereed or advanced depending on income).
17. C)undermine environmental and labor protections in the United States.
18. U have not given the table. so how do I calculate and help u?
This is most likely. But D is also possible.
18. C)euro
(this is most likely because this the current common currecy for most European countrues)
19. You have not reprodoced the table giving the data. So how can I calculate to find out the correct answer?
I disagree with the above answer on 16. I believe services and nondurables are affected by the business cycle since they are very time sensitive. capital and durables last through the cycle so are more relavent to long term trends.

for 19 i don't know what you are look at but to figure real GDP you take:
[New RGDP - old RGDP] / old RGDP take that times 100% to get the % growth
to the guy above me u dont multiply by 100% that makes no sense, u multiply by 100 to get your answer into a percentage instead of a whole number
