Why is GNI per capita a better measure of standard of living than GDP?

GNI per capita divides the total income earned by a country’s residents by its population, so it indicates income per person on average. That makes it more useful for comparing people’s average material standard of living than total GDP, which measures the economy’s overall production. The correct choice is “GNI per capita indicates how much each person makes on average.”
