GNP stands for Gross National Product, which is a valuation of all the goods and services produced each year in a country. It is roughly calculated by determining all personal, private, and government expenditures, as well as all exports, minus imports.

Does GNP measure social welfare?

GNP measures the total economic output of a country, but it does not directly measure social welfare. Social welfare encompasses factors like income distribution, access to healthcare and education, quality of life, and environmental sustainability, which are not fully captured by GNP. Other indicators like the Human Development Index or the Genuine Progress Indicator are more holistic in assessing social welfare.


How can GDP be bigger or smaller than gnp?

The most appropriate measure to use to illustrate the difference is the output measure of GDP/GNP. Roughly speaking the GDP of a country is the total value of all goods and services that are produced in the country - by any company located in the country irrespective of the nationality of the company. By contrast, GNP is a measure of all goods and services produced by companies that are owned by the country (or its nationals), wherever that company operates. So, if foreign owned companies in a country produce more than the country's foreign holdings do wherever they are located, then GDP will exceed GNP. And conversely.
