To identify the years in which there was a budget deficit, we need to compare the revenue and expenditure for each year from 2001 to 2009. A budget deficit occurs when the expenditure exceeds the revenue.
Let's analyze the data in the table year by year:
1. 2001: Revenue = [tex]$8 trillion, Expenditure = $[/tex]6 trillion
- Expenditure is less than revenue. No deficit.
2. 2002: Revenue = [tex]$5 trillion, Expenditure = $[/tex]7 trillion
- Expenditure is greater than revenue. Deficit.
3. 2003: Revenue = [tex]$8 trillion, Expenditure = $[/tex]10 trillion
- Expenditure is greater than revenue. Deficit.
4. 2004: Revenue = [tex]$9 trillion, Expenditure = $[/tex]7 trillion
- Expenditure is less than revenue. No deficit.
5. 2005: Revenue = [tex]$15 trillion, Expenditure = $[/tex]18 trillion
- Expenditure is greater than revenue. Deficit.
6. 2006: Revenue = [tex]$8 trillion, Expenditure = $[/tex]10 trillion
- Expenditure is greater than revenue. Deficit.
7. 2007: Revenue = [tex]$6 trillion, Expenditure = $[/tex]4 trillion
- Expenditure is less than revenue. No deficit.
8. 2008: Revenue = [tex]$2 trillion, Expenditure = $[/tex]4 trillion
- Expenditure is greater than revenue. Deficit.
9. 2009: Revenue = [tex]$7 trillion, Expenditure = $[/tex]4 trillion
- Expenditure is less than revenue. No deficit.
Based on the comparisons above, the years with a budget deficit are:
- 2002
- 2003
- 2005
- 2006
- 2008
Therefore, the correct locations in the table for the years with a budget deficit are:
2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, and 2008.
