To measure GDP only the final goods are included but we must ignore the Si (015Si S1v) - : intermediate goods. This process called avoiding multiple measures (double counting). S. m 4. Final goods are those which purchased by final (ultimate) users, but & os ! I'l final Intermediate goods are goods that are used to produce final goods. = 5. Another way to avoid multiple measures we can take only the value added at each transaction of intermediate or final goods in the GDP - %% s &I 6. Value added equal the firm output minus the purchased input from outside the firm. * 7. The GDP exclude nonproduction transaction that don’t create products or * services.
