John has been using the same resources to grow the same amount and quality of potatoes each year on the farm for 25 years. Is John helping to drive growth in real GDP? Because John is not adding additional value each year by doing something better than he did the year before, he is contributing to GDP; but he is not driving growth in real GDP. John is using land as a factor of production and making something with it; thus, he is driving growth in real GDP. John is adding value by growing potatoes, so each year he contributes to driving growth in real GDP. Because John is not adding additional value each year by doing something better than he did the year before, he both not contributing to GDP nor driving growth in real GDP.arrow_forwardHow useful is GDP as a measure for countries' well-being and why?
