What role does the consumer play in Gross Domestic Product?
Q. FYI: Gross Domestic Product (or GDP) is the total market value of all the final goods and services produced within an economy in a given year.
Asked by DoWHATiDO - Wed Jul 5 21:47:39 2006 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Consumers act as a stimulus to GNP, as the demand for products by the consumer causes more of the desired products to be produced. Of course, consumer demand is often manipulated by outside forces such as advertising, and overall economic welfare of a given economy. Tight money means consumers are forced to rein in their demands for certain products, they spend less on non-essential, or discretionary items like recreational vehicles, for instance, and because demand for such products falls, less are produced, and so forth. ---UC Steve

Q. The United States spends more money on health care, as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product, than other developed nations. Why do you think that is? Are we healthier as a result of this level of expenditure?
Asked by Linda k - Tue Jan 8 13:25:36 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Why? That is pretty complex, but is basically because other countries have negotiated prices en mass, rather than an everyone for themselves system, as well as less access to advanced medicine. They also have fewer unnecessary surgeries, tend to have a more healthy population because of diet and lifestyle issues, etc., and let's also not forget one reason we spend more on health care is because we can AFFORD to. I mean it isn't such a bad thing to spend money on, is it? Are we healthier because of it? Probably healthier than we would be otherwise, but eating better and exercising more might both reduce the cost of health care and do even more to making the population healthier than downing more drugs...

Q. Explain what the advantages and the disadvantages are of using Gross Domestic Product as a measure of productivity and economic health? Explain your answer.
Asked by mrs. Vee - Sat Dec 1 14:39:44 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Nominal and real GDP are horrible measures of economic health and productivity. GDP simply tells you the size of the economy measured by output. Change in real GDP is a little better because it captures productivity, but confounds it with population growth. So, it is an imperfect proxy for productivity. Further, change in GDP contains some information about the health of the economy- is it growing or shrinking and how quickly, but it isn't relative to anything. Per capita GDP tells you, on average how much output each person provides to the economy, and is therefore a measure of economic health. However, this tells you nothing about the distribution, potential, or sustainability of the economy. Change in per capita gdp is a pure measure… [cont.]

Asked by Mrs.Edward Cullen <3 - Fri Feb 6 18:13:13 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The problem with GDP is that economists don't talk about NET Domestic Product. NDP = GDP - Depreciation Then they get the equation wrong and don't tell us because they don't subtract the depreciation of all of the consumer goods. There have been 200,000,000+ cars in the US since 1995 so at $1,500 per car per year Americans lose $300,000,000,000 every year on cars. The economists DON'T TELL US. But when we buy new cars to be replacements they call it economic growth.

A. Inflation is the sudden increase of a product. Namely the product in this situation, a domestic product, such as pinesol maybe, can have a sudden price inflation if less workers are there (hence unemployment rate) to make the product to be sold. Since their is less of the product, that means the prices increase causing a inflation. Heres a simple chart for you to observe Workers Make>Pinesol>Pinesol production decreases suddenly because of lack of sales>Need for less workers>Less workers means higher unemployment rate>Suddenly Pinesol becomes famous>More workers needed but workers competent for task unavailable>Low number of Workers>Less Products>To make up for money price increase The End

A. Haven't you been paying attention? The world has just seen a major recession; have you see no effect at all? You haven't heard about the increase in unemployment? the fall in house prices and housing sales? And even without recent experience, have you even bothered to think about the question? Suppose the GDP does go down; that means people have and are spending less money. That means companies are producing less, which means they need fewer employees. That means people are getting laid off and unemployment increases. When you see people around you getting laid off, how are you going to feel about your job security? And are you likely to keep buying the same sort of things or are you likely to cut back on "luxuries"? Are you as likely… [cont.]

A. The adavantage of using GDP is it shows how much you have grown capared to the nations around you. The bad thing is that it does not show the inflation. With GDP you can not compare a country from year to year. But there is a solution. Use Real GDP, this uses a fixed price, and it shows how much you are really producing from one year to anouther.

A. GDP is the total market value of all final goods and services produced within a nation during a time period - the GDP for the year 2009, for example. Used goods that have been resold are not considered final goods and not included in the GDP. Regardless of who owns the resources or company, if it is produced within that country, it is part of that country's GDP. Example, the U.S. GDP includes Japanese-owned Toyota cars being produced by the plant factories located on U.S. soil. The U.S. owned Dell computers being produced in India is part of India's GDP. It sounds like you got the right idea.
