      What is Gross Domestic Product (GDP)? How do we count the various goods and services for calculating GDP? Explain with examples.

    Answer:

                      Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the total sum of the value of the final goods and services of the Primary, Secondary and Tertiary sectors of the economy of a country produced during a year. Examples of intermediate goods are wheat and flour, which are used for making bread and biscuits. Intermediate products should not be counted in the figure of GDP. Biscuits and breads are the final products prepared using flour and other ingredients like sugar, salt, oil, etc. Only the final products are reaching the actual consumers. The value of the intermediate products is already counted in the final products and if this is again counted, it will lead to double counting, causing an error in the estimation of GDP.
