This document discusses macroeconomic indicators used to measure economic activity, including gross domestic product (GDP) and gross national income (GNI). GDP measures the value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period, while GNI measures income earned by a country's factors of production. GDP is calculated using expenditure, income, and output approaches. Real GDP adjusts nominal GDP for inflation using a GDP deflator. Measuring economic indicators helps governments address problems and promote growth, employment, and price stability. The document also introduces the concept of "green GDP" which accounts for environmental costs not captured by traditional GDP.
