In this unit, you should have learned something about:- How numerical measurements are used to indicate the health and well-being of the economy.
- Gross Domestic Product (GDP), which is the total market value of all final goods and services produced in the economy in a given period of time.
- That GDP seeks to measure ALL production of goods and services in the economy at its total market value.
- That GDP only measures the market value of final goods and services, because the cost of intermediate goods is included in the price of the finished product.
- That GDP measures the flow of current production that takes place during a specific period, usually one year.
- The difference flows, which are measures that take place over a period of time, and stocks, which are measures that exist at a point in time.
