4. Imports (M) 2,928.6
5. Net Exports of Goods and Services ___________
6. Government Purchases (G) 3,374.4
7. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) _____________

Respuesta :

Answer:

Net export of goods and services equals -$578.4 billion(its in negative)

While Gross Domestic Product is $19,485.4 billion

Explanation:

Formula for Gross Domestic Product (GDP) using expenditure approach is

C + I + G + (X-M)

where (X-M) is the net exports of goods and services.

C is consumption

I is Investment

G is government spending or purchases

X is the total exports

M is the total imports

The first question find net exports of goods and services

Net export = export (X) - import(M)

$2,350.2 - $2,928.6

= -$578.4 billion

The second question which is calculation of GDP is

$13,321.4 + $3,368.0 + $3,374.4 + $2,350.2 - $2,928.6

=$19,485.4

Net Exports of Goods and Services is  -578.40 billion dollars and the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is 19,485.40 billion dollars

Net export is export less import

Net export = exports – imports

When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and net export will be negative.  

When import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus and net export will be positive.

Net export =  2,350.2 -  2,928.6 = -578.40 billion dollars

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export

13,321.4 + 3,368.0 + 3,374.4  -578.40 = 19,485.40 billion dollars
