This category includes the natural resources used to produce goods and services, including the land itself; the minerals and nutrients in the ground; the water, wildlife, and vegetation on the surface; and the air above.

Topic: Resources <=PAGE BACK | PAGE NEXT=>

Calculating GDP from the resource side is based on the fact that ALL revenue received by the business sector is paid to or claimed by a factor of production.

Factor payments and the productive factors are:

    • Wages are paid to labor.
    • Interest is paid to capital.
    • Rent is paid to land.
    • Profit is paid to entrepreneurship.
  • Official government names are compensation to employees (wages) and corporate profit (profit).
  • Proprietors' income is a combination of wages, interest, rent and profit, collected by the owner of a proprietorship.
