	Gross domestic product - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		GDP measures only final goods and services, that is those goods and services that are consumed by their final user, and not used as an input into other goods.
		GDP per capita is often used as an indicator of standard of living in an economy.
		GDP is intended to be a measure of particular types of economic activity within a country.

	ET 12/96: Measuring progress
		GDP is the standard measure of the nation's total economic activity, and it is assumed to translate directly into well being.
		GDP makes no distinction between the secure skilled worker in a high-paying job and the recently-laid-off worker who is holding down two jobs without benefits just to make ends meet.
		GDP treats pollution as a double positive - it is counted as a gain when it is first created as a by-product of some other activity, and it is counted as a gain again when society pays to clean it up.

	MSN Encarta - Gross Domestic Product
		GDP may be calculated in three ways: (1) by adding up the value of all goods and services produced, (2) by adding up the expenditure on goods and services at the time of sale, or (3) by adding up producers’ incomes from the sale of goods or services.
		However, it is difficult to measure GDP precisely, partly because every country has an unofficial economy, often called a fl economy, that consists of transactions not reported to government.
		If GDP grows at a higher rate than the population, standards of living are said to be rising.

	Foolish Feature, 01/30/98: A Thing Called GDP, by Alex Schay
		GDP is also the primary method by which other countries measure their output, according to international guidelines set forth in the System of National Accounts.
		However, in the GDP quarterly report the net export balance is indeed positive due to "invisibles" such as freight and insurance, which together compensate for the large deficit in goods and services and ultimately contribute to 11% of GDP.
		The GDP is published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (a bureau within the Department of Commerce) between the 21st and 30th of the month on a quarterly basis, with revisions occurring monthly.

	What's Wrong With The GDP?
		Since the GDP records every monetary transaction as positive, the costs of social decay and natural disasters are tallied as economic advance.
		Since the GDP first added the economic activity that generated that waste, it creates the illusion that pollution is a double benefit for the economy.
		This wide and growing divergence between the GDP and GPI is a warning that the economy is stuck on a path that imposes large—and as yet unreckoned—costs onto the present and the future.

	News Release: Gross Domestic Product
		The deceleration in real GDP growth in the second quarter primarily reflected a downturn in private inventory investment that was partly offset by a downturn in imports and an acceleration in exports.
		GNP includes, and GDP excludes, net receipts of income from the rest of the world, which decreased $3.6 billion in the second quarter after increasing $2.4 billion in the first; in the second quarter, receipts increased $21.3 billion, and payments increased $24.9 billion.
		Measures of real GDP and its major components are also presented in dollar-denominated form, designated "chained (2000) dollar estimates." For most series, these estimates, which are presented in table 3, are computed by multiplying the current-dollar value in 2000 by a corresponding quantity index number and then dividing by 100.

	The Hindu Business Line : GDP: Don't count on it
		GDP takes no account of increasing inequality, pollution or damage to people's health and the environment.

		The origin of GDP can be traced to Tomas Petty who, in 1655, set out to render the national accounts of England in order to evaluate the taxable capacity of that country.

		The GDP has no way of assessing the value of natural resources until they enter the monetary economy, or in other words, are consumed.
		The trees in an old-growth forest that provide numerous services to humans and animals alike are worth nothing to the GDP until they are cut down for timber, at which point the GDP has no way of accounting for the loss of their services.
		In short, the GDP values growth at all costs over the things that really matter to people, such as clean air and water, a healthy and safe community, and the free time to enjoy them.

		GDP methodology: In the Economy section, GDP dollar estimates for all countries are derived from purchasing power parity (PPP) calculations rather than from conversions at official currency exchange rates.
		Most of the GDP estimates are based on extrapolation of PPP numbers published by the UN International Comparison Program (UNICP) and by Professors Robert Summers and Alan Heston of the University of Pennsylvania and their colleagues.
		Note: the numbers for GDP and other economic data can not be chained together from successive volumes of the Factbook because of changes in the US dollar measuring rod, revisions of data by statistical agencies, use of new or different sources of information, and changes in national statistical methods and practices.

	What is up with the GDP? - Mises Institute (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The GDP framework gives the impression that it is not the activities of individuals that produce goods and services, but something else outside these activities called the "economy." However, at no stage does the so-called "economy" have a life of its own independent of individuals.
		The GDP framework cannot tell us whether final goods and services that were produced during a particular period of time are a reflection of real wealth expansion, or a reflection of capital consumption.
		Notwithstanding this, the GDP framework is in big demand by governments and central bank officials since it provides justification for their interference with businesses.

		The GDP is an economic number that tells us the total value of all the final goods and services produced by resources located in the country you live in during a period of one year.

		Even during the decade of the Depression, 1929—1939, the per capita GDP actually increased 2 percent, overcoming a sharp drop in the early years of the decade.
		The extraordinary growth in GDP per capita was caused primarily by growth in inputs to the economy: more energy, more capital, better-educated workers, and research and development that produced better technologies.
