Answer:

90,000

Explanation:

Recall that, GDP which is the gross domestic product is the total monetary value of all final goods and services produce within a country geographical boundary for a period of time say one year.

In this case, since the house was built in 1997, it can't be counted as part of 2020 GDP as sale of second hand houses isn't included in GDP.

However, the commission received by the agent can be added to the current GDP.

Thus

Given that

Commission = 6% = 0.06

Sale price = 1500000.

Thus, agent fee in dollars

= 0.06 × 1500000

= $90,000

Therefore, $90,000 will be included in the GDP.
