Expenditure Method GDP = C + I + G + (x - m) C =Personal consumption expenditure I =Gross private domestic investment G =Government consumption expenditures and investment (x-m)= net exports

Components of GDP Personal consumption expenditures Durable goods Non-durable goods Services Spending on durable goods tends to be highly volatile during business cycles

Components of GDP Gross private domestic investment Fixed investment Non-residential (structures equipment & software) Residential (new houses by HH and landlords) Changes in private inventories Goods produced but not sold during a given year

Components of GDP Govt. consumption Exp. & Gross investment Federal National defense Non-defense State and local

Components of GDP Exports Goods Services Imports Goods Services

Income Method Gross domestic product Less:Depreciation Plus:Statistical discrepancy Equals:National income Compensation of employees Proprietor’s income Rental income Corporate profits Net interest

Income Method cont… Less:Income earned but not received Plus:Income received but not earned Equal:Personal income Less:personal taxes Equals:disposable income personal consumption personal savings

Measurement of Employment Less: Persons who are not actively seeking jobs (housewives, retirees, students, discouraged workers) Equals:Civilian labor force

Unemployment Natural rate of unemployment Minimum level of unemployment that can be achieved with current institutions without causing inflation to accelerate Unemployment rate = # of persons unemployed Labor force X100
