❓ Common questions
- What is not included in GDP?
- GDP excludes transfer payments (Social Security, unemployment benefits), purely financial transactions, and the underground economy. It also excludes goods produced in previous periods.
- What is the difference between GDP and GNP?
- GDP measures output within a country's borders regardless of who produces it. GNP (Gross National Product) measures output by a country's residents regardless of where they are located.
- What is a trade deficit?
- A trade deficit occurs when imports exceed exports (X − M < 0), which reduces GDP. A trade surplus (X − M > 0) increases GDP.
- What does gross investment include?
- Gross investment includes business spending on equipment and software, construction of new buildings, and changes in business inventories. It does not include financial investments like stocks.
- Is government transfer spending included in G?
- No. Transfer payments like Social Security or unemployment benefits are not included in G because they don't represent direct purchase of goods or services.
