Which of the following statements regarding GDP is correct?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Correct option is (a)

Explanation:

GDP or Gross domestic product includes monetary value of all goods and services produced within a country. It includes all private and public investments and exports less taxes and imports.

Option b, c and d are incorrect as GDP accounts for only domestic production and not foreign activities. Details about how income is distributed is not given by GDP. GDP provides details about economic condition of the nation. GDP does not indicate wholesome well being of the nation like human development, infant mortality and standard of living.

GDP accounts for factory production but does not account for any production carried out at the cost of environmental degradation.

This would increase the demand of the product because financially it is more beneficial and the price demand relation says that when the price of the good decreases the demand of the product increases and vice versa. So this means that the company will earn more but the society will have to bear the cost of the negative impacts.
