Explanation:
Gross domestic product (GDP) is the sum of all final goods and services produced in an economic space for a certain period, usually one year, excluding the intermediate consumption used in production. Until the 1980's, the use of Gross National Product (GNP) was preferred, a measure almost identical to GDP but incorporating goods and services produced by external factors. The variation in this macroeconomic magnitude is often used to measure economic growth.
