SCARCE GOOD: A resource with an available quantity less than its desired use. Scarce resources are also called factors of production. Scarce goods are also termed economic goods. Scarce resources are used to produce scarce goods. Like the more general society-wide condition of scarcity, a given resource is scarce because it has a limited availability in combination with a greater (potentially unlimited) productive use. It's both of these that make it scarce. In other words, even though an item is quite limited it will not be a scarce resource if it has few if any uses (think pocket lint and free good).

NET NATIONAL PRODUCT:

The total market value of all final goods and services produced by citizens of an economy during a given period of time, usually a year, after adjusting for the depreciation of capital. Net national product (NNP) has the same relation to net domestic product (NDP) as gross national product (GNP) has to gross domestic product (GDP). Net national product also has the same relation to gross national product that net domestic product has to gross domestic product. Like NDP, NNP is a measure of the net production in the economy.
The key difference between NNP and NDP is identical to that between GNP and GDP. Net national product measures all output produced by citizens of a nation, regardless of where that production takes place, and net domestic product measures all output produced within the political boundaries of a nation, regardless of the citizenry of those doing the producing. The difference between NNP and NDP is net foreign factor income.

In the same way that NDP is derived from GDP by subtracting capital depreciation, specifically the capital consumption adjustment (CCA), NNP is derived from GNP by subtracting the capital consumption adjustment.

NNP=GNP - CCA
When GNP gave way to GDP as the primary measure of gross production in the early 1990s, so too did NNP give way to NDP as the primary measure of net production in the economy. NNP can still be derived from the numbers provided by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, but it is seldom if ever reported with other standard measures of production and income.

[What's This?]

Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time driving to a factory outlet looking to buy either a rechargeable battery for your cell phone or a T-shirt commemorating the 2000 Olympics. Be on the lookout for strangers with large satchels of used undergarments.

This isn't me! What am I?

Potato chips were invented in 1853 by a irritated chef repeatedly seeking to appease the hard to please Cornelius Vanderbilt who demanded french fried potatoes that were thinner and crisper than normal.
