    Real GDP increases while nominal GDP decreases

    Explanation:

    year 1: 10,000 MP3 players were produced at $100 each ⇒

    real GDP = 10,000 x $100 = $1,000,000 nominal GDP = 10,000 x $100 = $1,000,000

    year 2: 12,000 MP3 players were produced at $80 each ⇒

    nominal GDP = 12,000 x $80 = $960,000, real GDP = 12,000 x $100 = $1,200,000

    real GDP year 2 increases from $1 million to $1.2 million

    nominal GDP year 2 decreases from $1 million to $960,000
