Is ketchup a final good or intermediate good?
Haricharan G.
Since we use GDP to determine a nation's health, we can only add the market value of the goods and services produced in the United States (domestic production) for a single year. We also do not add the value of intermediate goods, ingredients/items used to produce final products. We only count the value of final goods and services which have been produced within the year. Including the value of both the intermediate goods and the final goods and services would lead to double counting and increase the value of GDP. Directions: For each item, place either an "I" if the scenario is an intermediate product or an "F" if it is a final product. a. Shampoo is bought and used by a hair stylist in the mall. b.
