If in some country personal consumption expenditures in a specific year are $50 billion, purchases of stocks and bonds are $30 billion, net exports are - $10 billion, government purchases are $20 billion, sales of secondhand items are $8 billion, and gross investment is $25 billion, what is the country’s gdp for the year?

$85 Billion

Explanation:

Given that,

Personal consumption expenditures in a specific year = $50 billion

Purchases of stocks and bonds = $30 billion

Net exports = (- $10 billion)

Government purchases = $20 billion

Sales of secondhand items = $8 billion

Gross investment = $25 billion

From the above information, expenditure method is more suitable.

GDP = Personal consumption expenditures + Gross investment + Government purchases + Net exports

        = $50 + $25 + $20 - $10

        = $85 Billion

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
