Measuring the Economy

Question 8 • FL-2106020-M/J Civics Advanced B

Which action would directly affect the GDP of the United States?

Answer
A
Hakeem trades his binoculars for a camera at a swap meet.
B
Chara orders a sari from India to wear for a special occasion.
C
Ana buys a new car manufactured in the United States.
D
Raul finds a new job after being unemployed for a month.

Explanation

GDP measures the value of final goods and services produced within the country during a period. Ana’s new car was manufactured in the United States, so its production counts toward U.S. GDP. The swap-meet trade involves existing goods, the sari is imported, and finding a job is not itself the production of a good or service.
