Answer the following question:

Explain the concept of Gross domestic product at market prices.

Answer 1

Gross Domestic Product at Market Prices (GDP_MP) refers to the market value of all the final goods and services produced within the domestic country during an accounting year inclusive of depreciation. It is a gross concept as depreciation is not taken into account in its estimation. Also, GDP is limited to the domestic territory and excludes the Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA).
