Explanation / Answer

The gross domestic product (GDP) measures the dollar value of all the goods and services that are produced in a country in a specified period of time which is usually a year.

A) The sale of tires by Rotato to Speedmaster will be included in the GDP of 2017 of the US. This is because the tires have been produced in the country during the year 2017.

B) The purchase of antique silver platter by Jones family will not be included in the GDP of 2017 of the US. This is because the GDP calculation excludes those items that have been produced in a previous period.

C) The production of the convertible car by Roadway Motors will not be included in the GDP of 2017 of the US. This is because the car has not been produced in the US and GDP includes those items that are produced domestically.

D) The sale of latte by Awake Café will be included in the GDP of 2017 of the US.

E) The purchase of chocolate bar by the student will be included in the GDP of 2017 of the US.
