Expert Solution

Step 1

Gross domestic product or GDP helps in finding the total value of goods and services within a particular geographical location. GNP or gross national product on the other hand helps in measuring the income earned by different individuals in a particular country irrespective of the location in which the goods or services are produced. While GDP helps in understanding the economy's strength, GNP helps to know the extent to which the citizens contribute for the economic development.
