The Gross National Product (GNP) has been used for many years to measure the total value of all the goods and services that the economy produces within a year. In other words, the GNP has told us a lot about the nation’s wealth. If the GNP increased, there was more of everything available for people. If the GNP decreased, less was available. In 1991, however, the government began measuring the USA economy’s production with the Gross Domestic Product (GDP).GDP is used by most of the world’s countries to measure their production of goods and services. The GDP and the GNP are very similar. Some of the differences are described below alongside with guidelines for interpreting their meaning.

We have said that the GNP is the total value of the goods and services produced by the U.S. citizens and firms within a single year. To avoid the overstating the GNP by counting the same item two or more times, only final goods are included. Let’s suppose that a bicycle manufacturer pays suppliers $100 for the parts used in making 10-speed bicycle. The manufacturer sells the bicycle to a retail store for $175. The store sells the bike for $295. How much did the production of a single 10-speed bicycle add to the GNP? Since only final goods are counted, $295. The $100 paid to the parts supplier and the $175 paid to the manufacture were not added to the final count because the $295 covers the previous transactions.
