What does "GDP" actually mean when you hear it in the news? This video breaks down the complex but clever ways economists measure the health and wealth of an entire nation.
We start with the basics of the economy, like the circular flow of money [00:24], and explain why national income is a "flow" and not a "stock" [01:09].
In this video, you'll learn:
What is GDP? We define Gross Domestic Product and explain why we only count the "final" value of goods and services [01:40].
Three Ways to Measure: Discover the three methods for calculating GDP: the production, expenditure, and income approaches [02:34].
GDP vs. GNP: What's the difference between Gross Domestic Product (based on geography) and Gross National Product (based on citizenship)? [03:39]
Beyond GDP: We also cover related concepts like National Income [04:17], the Balance of Payments [04:53], and Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) [06:08].
The Limits of GDP: Finally, we discuss why GDP isn't a perfect measure of a nation's well-being, as it misses key factors like income inequality, unpaid work, and pollution [06:35].
This explainer makes complex economic ideas simple and easy to understand.
