The "GDP gap" is the difference between what the economy could produce at its potential GDP and what it is producing, its actual GDP.

The consequence of a negative GDP gap is that what is not produced -- the amount represented by the gap---is lost forever.

Moreover, to the extent that this lost production represents capital

goods, the potential production for the future is impaired.

Future economic growth will be less.

The noneconomic

effects of unemployment include the sense of failure created in parents and in their children, the feeling of being useless to society, of no longer belonging.

What is the GDP gap?

A GDP gap is the difference between actual GDP and potential GDP. The calculation of the GDP gap is actual output minus potential output. If this calculation yields a positive number it is called an inflationary gap and indicates the increased growth of aggregate demand is outpacing the growth of aggregate supply which may possibly create inflation. If the calculation yields a negative number it is called a recessionary gap- possible signifying deflation.
