           W DP?
               G GDP is the way we measure the U.S. economy and its growth.
                      GrossDomesticProduct
                      Total market value     Within the United States       Goods and services
                                  GDP = the total market value of the goods and  
                               services produced within the United States in a year.
               A good is a video game,         A service is a haircut,        Market value is how much 
               a car, an apple, a gold ring.   a bus ride, computer repair,   something costs in the 
               Goods are things that people    a doctor’s care. Services are  marketplace. It’s what you 
               make, grow or extract from      actions that people do for     pay for that video game or 
               the land.                       someone else.                  haircut.
              Why is GDP important?
                • The pace of economic growth affects jobs, businesses and investments.
                • Understanding the economy helps the public and policymakers make informed decisions.
                • GDP helps compare the U.S. economy with economies around the world.
              Who uses GDP? 
              Congress, the White House, the Federal Reserve, state and local governments, business leaders, 
              analysts and researchers, and the American public rely on GDP and related statistics from the 
              Bureau of Economic Analysis. These statistics inform decisions about taxes and spending, hiring 
              and investing, interest rates and trade policy, and more.

              How big is the economy?
               • U.S. GDP is always a huge number — around $19 trillion per year right now.
               • The economy’s growth rate is watched closely, so you often hear GDP referred to as
                  a percentage. For example, GDP was 1.5 percent higher in 2016 than the year before.
               • The rate is based on “real GDP,” numbers adjusted to remove the effects of inflation.
              How is GDP calculated?
              There is a four-part formula: C + I + G + NX = GDP
              Personal Consumption  Also called consumer spending: the goods and services people buy, 
                  Expenditures      such as groceries, clothing, cellphone service and health care.
                                    This is business spending on fixed assets such as land, buildings 
                  +Investment       and equipment, plus investment in unsold inventory; also includes 
                                    purchases of homes by consumers.
                 +Government        Spending by federal, state and local governments to provide goods 
                    Spending        and services, such as schools, roads or national defense.
                                    Also known as exports minus imports (X – M): the value of exports to 
                 +Net EXports       other countries minus the value of imports into the United States.
                                    Why are imports subtracted? Consumers, businesses and governments spend some of their 
                                    money on imports. U.S. production would be overstated if the formula didn’t remove imports.
                    = GDP           The total market value of the goods and services produced 
                                    within the United States in a year.
              What is not in GDP?
              Some productive activities are left out. For example, GDP doesn’t count the value of services 
              parents provide for their own children, work volunteers do for charities, or illegal activities. 
              Who calculates GDP?
               • Economists at the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis estimate GDP using thousands of
                  data points gathered by other federal agencies and some private data collectors.
               • BEA is a nonpartisan, nonpolitical statistical agency. Its data are free to all on bea.gov.
