Answer:
it does not measure quality-of-life factors ; it does not account for distribution of wealth ; it fails to measure non monetary (home production) activities
Explanation:
Real GDP is the total value of goods & services produced in an economy, during a period of time. But it is not correct measure of welfare level.
- It does not measure non monetary production, like hobby production eg kitchen gardening, self made paintings, music. But, they increase welfare
- It does not take into consideration the qualitative factors affecting welfare like pollution, crime & literacy. Externalities cause extra benefit or harm to welfare level, but are excluded from GDP.
- Inequitable distribution of per capita (average) GDP increases rich poor standard of living divide. So, the distribution effect ignored make GDP an inapt measure of average welfare level.
Real GDP adjusts the value of goods & services for price change (Inflation), it is a correct measure of increase in real flow of goods & services. GDP & health positive correlation is a favouring point for GDP as a measure of welfare. So, these options are incorrect.
Answer:
- Sacred consumption
- Profane consumption
Explanation:
This differentiation is based on special religious events (e.g. religious holidays) that considered some goods as sacred, while profane had to do with everyday life.
Some modern marketing strategies try to build sacred brands. For example, Google has become our God of all knowledge and no one even dares to challenge that almost religious belief. Anyone can make their own coffee or buy coffee at any coffee shop, but Starbucks is different, it has built a sense of emotional connection with the public. It's not any coffee that we need or want.
