Potential GDP is basically the sum of growth in productivity, growth in labor force, and growth in number of hours worked. In a mature economy like the US, change in number of hours worked is insignificant and often ignored. -Potential GDP is the level of real GDP that the economy would produce if it were at full employment. When real GDP falls short of potential GDP the economy is not at full employment. When the economy is at full employment real GDP equals potential GDP. Real GDP can exceed potential GDP only temporarily as it approaches and then recedes from a business cycle peak.

Why did US replace GNP with GDP?

The short answer is that they didn't. GNP and GDP are to different economic indicators. They are however related. However I have noticed that a lot of US statistics prefer to GDP rather than GNP to describe US economy. A reason given by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis in 1992 "GDP corresponds more closely than GNP does to other indicators used to analyze short-term movements in the U.S. economy, such as employment and industrial production." GNP = GDP + NR GDP = consumption + investment + (government spending) + (exports − imports)
