Why do economists include only final goods and services in measuring GDP for a particular year?
The dollar value of final goods includes the dollar value of intermediate goods. If intermediate goods were counted, then multiple counting would occur. The value of steel (intermediate good) used in autos is included in the price of the auto (the final product).
What would happen if public goods were marketed like private goods?
public goods would be overproduced
Why are only final goods and services counted in the total production?
Because counting intermediate inputs into final goods would be a form of double-counting, increasing the GDP artificially.
What will happen if there was no money or bartering?
Everyone would have to produce their own goods.
Why do you not include intermediary goods when measuring GDP?
Intermediary goods are not considered final goods. Only final goods can be included. Lets look at an example: Lets say A.B Star makes paper, which Halmart Cards uses to make greeting cards, the paper is called an intermediary good, and the card is called a final good. GDP only includes the value of the final good. the reason is that the value of intermediary goods is already included in the price of the final good. Thus, if the intermediary good was included than the measure would be doubled. But their is an exception. Intermediary goods can be included in the GDP only if they are put away as inventory for a while. Looking back at the greeting card example, if A.B Star put some of his paper away because he had a surplus of paper that paper would be included in the GDP until it was sent to Halmart Cards to be turned into a final good. Cheers!
