    Study Notes

    GDP Measurement Factors

    • GDP does not account for non-market transactions such as household labor and volunteer work.
    • Environmental degradation and resource depletion are not included in GDP calculations, despite their economic implications.

    GDP Calculation Requirements

    • To calculate GDP, informal or underground economic activities are typically excluded.
    • Accurate data on consumer spending, business investment, government spending, and net exports are essential but are gathered from a variety of sources.

    GDP Calculation Formula

    • The correct formula for calculating GDP is:
      • GDP = C + I + G + (X - M)
      • Where C = Consumption, I = Investment, G = Government spending, X = Exports, and M = Imports.

    Nominal GDP Definition

    • Nominal GDP measures the total value of all goods and services produced in a country at current market prices during a specific time period, without adjusting for inflation.

    Real GDP Definition

    • Real GDP adjusts nominal GDP for inflation, reflecting the true value of goods and services by using constant prices from a base year, providing a more accurate economic growth measure.
