  4. To avoid counting products more than once, economists include only the value of final goods and services when calculating GDP. • Woodcutter cuts down a tree and sells it to a sawmill operator. Sawmill processes the tree into lumber, which is sold to a furniture manufacturer. The manufacturer turns it into a dining table. • ONLY the dining table is the final output. 1. Final Output
