Final Goods and Services

|
|
A second phrase to highlight is 'final goods and services'.- Production generally involves several intermediate steps which involves market exchanges of intermediate goods. GDP measures only the market value of final goods.
- The cost of intermediate goods is already included in the price and thus the market value of finished product when sold to final users.
- To avoid double counting, GDP does not separately include the market value of any intermediate goods.
Final goods are those reaching their final user and include: household consumption, business investment in capital, government purchases, and exports.

BALANCE ON MERCHANDISE TRADE A subset of the balance of payments current account that records the difference between the payments received for exports of goods to other nations and the payments made for the imports of goods from other nations. The goods included are physical or tangible goods, but not intangible services. The balance on merchandise trade is thus appropriately divided into merchandise exported and merchandise imported. Two other subsets of the current account include the balance on services and unilateral transfers. The commonly termed balance of trade is the sum of the balance on merchandise trade and the balance on services.
