Unit 7 – Industrial and Economic Development
Topic 7.3
Why might economists criticize Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita as an inadequate measure for comparing economic well-being across nations?
GDP per capita accounts for only agricultural output, neglecting industrial and service sectors.
GDP per capita double counts income from both public and private sectors.
GDP per capita does not include the value of exports in its calculation.
GDP per capita cannot capture variations in cost of living across different nations.
