since-we-use-gdp-to-determine-a-nations-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-a-98682

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. A family buys some finger paint for their child to use. c. A person buys a tire to replace a flat one on their car. d. A hotel chain buys a box of pens. e. Flour is bought and used to bake a cake to be sold at a bakery. f. Someone buys a steak to grill at home. g. An accounting firm buys calculators for its accountants. h. A person buys shampoo to use at home. i. Flour is bought and used to bake a cake for a birthday. j. A student buys a pack of pens to do their homework. k. A restaurant prepares a steak for its customers. l. A factory buys tires to place on their cars. m. An artist buys paints for a painting, with the intention of keeping it. n. A calculator is bought and used for mathematics homework. o. An artist buys paints for a landscape painting, with the intention of selling it.

00:01 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.
00:13 We also do not add the value of intermediate goods, ingredients or items used to produce final products.
00:19 We only count the value of final goods and services which have been produced within the year.
00:24 Including the value of both intermediate goods and the final goods of services would lead to double counting and increase the value of gdp.
00:32 For each item, place either an i if the scenario is an intermediate product or an f if it is a final product.
00:43 A, we have shampoo, is bought and used by a hairstylist in the mall.
01:05 This is a final good.
01:11 It is a final product bought by the final consumer.
01:14 The hairstylist bought and used it.
01:17 Therefore, it is a part of gdp.
01:18 B, a family buys some finger paint for their child to use.
01:44 This is a final good.
01:48 The family is the one who bought and is using that product.
01:53 Therefore, it is a part of gdp.
01:56 C, a person buys a tire who replace a flat one on their car.
02:30 This is a final good because they are using, that tire, the person who will, so it's a final product bought by the final consumer because the consumer is the person that's replacing the flat tire on their car.
02:45 Therefore, it is a part of gdp.
02:49 D, or d actually, a hotel chain buys a box of pens.
03:09 This is a final good and will not be included in gdp or will be included in gdp because the hotel is the final consumer.
03:19 Yes, other people might be using the pens, but the hotel is the one who bought and is ultimately using those pens.
03:27 E, flour is bought and used to bake a cake to be sold at a bakery.
03:58 This is an intermediate good or product.
04:09 It's an intermediate product because the flour will be made into cakes.
04:13 The flower isn't what the ultimate final consumer is buying.
04:16 The final consumer is the person buying the cake in which flower.
04:20 Was used.
04:22 So therefore, it would not be included in gdp.
04:25 F, someone buys a steak to grill at home.
04:39 This is a final product because the person buying the steak is the one grilling it to eat at home...
