  7. What is Macroeconomics?Watch VE4 Video clip Economic Growth • Find a news article that covers a topic from the macroeconomy (there are tons every day) and from unit 1 -3, and apply your economic knowledge. • Summarize this article using the space provided. Include the main idea, why you chose this article, and how it pertains to YOUR life. Be prepared to share with the class and EXPLAIN why you think as you do.

  8. EMA1: The student will illustrate the means by which economic activity is measured. • How do you measure something? Describe how you would measure how much you have grown from age 5 to now. • How do economists gauge what is happening in the economy? In other words, how do they measure it? • What is macroeconomics? • What is the difference between Micro and Macro?

  9. Intro into Measuring The Big Mac!! Stop, Collaborate & Listen!! Why do we want to predict the weather? What if the weatherperson predicted snow for tomorrow? How would you change your behavior? Would you want to know if a snowstorm was coming? Why? How is the weather measured? (instruments?) Is the weather forecast ALWAYS correct? Now think about the economy. Why do we measure/predict the economy? If an economist predicted high levels of unemployment coming, would you want to know? How would you change your financial/economic behavior? How is the economy measured? (instruments?) Is the economic forecast ALWAYS correct?

  29. 3 Tools to Measure Economic Growth • GDP • Unemployment • Inflation

  30. Why is Measuring GDP Important?Who Cares?? Econ Buddy! • Look deeper at GDP. What does it REALLY represent? • How does productivity fit into the GDP picture? (hint: define productivity) • Should GDP be a high number or low number? • How should the numbers be interpreted?

  31. 3 ways to Calculate GDP • Valueof _______________of Final G________& S________ • Spending on Domestically Produced Final G________ & S_________ • F_________ Income Earned from Businesses in the economy

  32. 3 ways to Calculate GDP • Value of Productionof Final Goods & Services • Spending on Domestically Produced Final Goods & Services • Factor Income Earned from Businesses in the economy

  33. Gross Domestic Product as a Value of Production (what is all the stuff produced in the USA worth?)

  34. EMA1b: Define Gross Domestic Product (GDP), 1. Total v_____ of selling prices What method is this? ________________ GDP: total market value1of all final2 goods and services produced within a country3 for 1 year4 2. Not i__________ goods 3. M_____ within the country, even if the producer is F_______owned 4. One (1) calendar Year from J_____1 to D_____ 31

  35. EMA1b: Define Gross Domestic Product (GDP), 1. Total value of selling prices GDP: total market value1of all final2 goods and services produced within a country3 for 1 year4 2. Not intermediate goods 3. Made within the country, even if the producer is foreign owned 4. One (1) calendar Year from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31

  36. 1. Measuring GDP as the Value of Production of Final Goods & Services • In which month did the Coffee Shop have a better month?

  37. 1. Measuring GDP as the Value of Production of Final Goods & Services • In which month did the Coffee Shop have a better month?

  38. Criteria for Measuring GDP • Final Goods = ready for c_____________ ~ give an example: _________________ • Intermediate Goods: needs further ________________ before being counted as a final good • Only ____________Goods & Services are used in calculating __________to avoid double or multiple counting (no _______________ goods) • Example: • $5.00 overstates the value of the $3.00 ketchup. The $3.00 includes all the other transactions so this is the only transaction that is counted toward GDP

  39. Criteria for Measuring GDP • Final Goods = ready for consumption~ ex. Bottle of ketchup • Intermediate Goods: needs further processingbefore being counted as a final good • Only Final Goods & Services are used in calculating GDP to avoid double or multiple counting (no intermediate goods) • Example: • $5.00 overstates the value of the $3.00 ketchup. The $3.00 includes all the other transactions so this is the only transaction that is counted toward GDP

  40. Criteria for Measuring GDP • GDP is calculated as the production is done within the b___________ of a given n_______ • Produced in USA = belongs to USA’s _______ • Where it is consumed is ___________ • Where the company is headquartered is ______________ • General Motors, an American Company, has a factory in South Africa producing trucks. The value of the trucks are counted in whose GDP?

  41. Criteria for Measuring GDP • GDP is calculated as the production is done within the boundaries of a given nation • Produced in USA = belongs to USA’s GDP • Where it is consumed is irrelevant • Where the company is headquartered is irrelevant Ex: General Motors, an American Company, has a factory in South Africa producing trucks. The value of the trucks are counted in whose GDP? South Africa

  42. 1. Measuring GDP as the Value of Production of Final Goods & Services • GDP counts the dollar value of what has been produced in the economy over the year, not what was actually sold. • Example: A Honda Civic produced in Kentucky in 2009, but not sold until 2010 is counted in which year’s production and GDP? • USA’s production for 2009 GDP

  43. Gross Domestic Product as Measured by Spending on Domestically Produced Goods (how much money was spend on products made in the US?)

  44. 2. Measuring GDP as Spending on Domestically Produced Final Goods & Services Are you ready for the GDP Challenge? • C (C_________s_________) + • I (I__________) + • G (G___________ S___________+ • Net Exports (E_______ – I________) = GDP +I C +G = GDP +(X-M) HOTS Question: What happens when one of these variables in this equation ceases to operate normally?

  45. 2. Measuring GDP as Spending on Domestically Produced Final Goods & Services Are you ready for the GDP Challenge? • C (Consumer spending) + • I (Investments) + • G (Government Spending) + • Net Exports (Exports – Imports) = GDP +I C +G = GDP +(X-M) Critical Thinking Question: What happens when one of these variables in this equation ceases to operate normally?

  46. HOTS Question: GDPBar Graph Interpretation Look at the bar graph. It shows 2 methods of calculating GDP. The value of production method and the spending equal one another. Why?

  47. HOTS Question About GDPBar Graph Interpretation Look at the bar graph. It shows 2 methods of calculating GDP. The value of production method and the spending equal one another. Why? The circular flow diagram of Economic Interdependence – the income made in the economy is spent in the economy!!!

  48.

  49. Behind the GDP Formula • Personal Consumption: includes durable (new dishwasher) and non-durable goods (lettuce) & services (pedicure) • Domestic Investment: final purchases in machinery, equipment, & tools; all construction (including residential); & changes in business inventory • Government Purchases: includes spending by all levels of gov’t (fed, state, local). & all direct purchases of resources (labor) • Net Exports (X-M): all spending on goods produced in USA and sold in another country (exports) & goods purchased in the USA but made elsewhere (imports); • The difference (X-M) can be positive or negative number
