DefinitionsGross domestic product (GDP) is one the primary indicators
used to gauge the health of a country's economy. It represents the total dollar value of all goods and services produced over a specific time period
OrThe monetary value of all the finished goods and services
produced within a country's borders in a specific time period, though GDP is usually calculated on an annual basis. It includes all of private and public consumption, government outlays, investments and exports less imports that occur within a defined territory.
Per capita income or income per person is a measure of mean income within an economic aggregate, such as a country or city. It is calculated by taking a measure of all sources of income in the aggregate (such as GDP or Gross National Income) and dividing it by the total population. It does not attempt to reflect the distribution of income or wealth
