GROSS NATIONAL PRODUCT AND GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT ANALYSIS FOR YEARS 2006 TO 2011
Gross National Product is a measure of a countrys output of final goods and services for an accounting period in terms of its market and consumers value. It is the market value of all products and services produced in one year by labor and property supplied by the residents of a country. On the other hand, Gross Domestic Product refers to the market value of all final goods and services produced in a country in a given period. It is often considered as an indicator of a country's standard of living.
GNP Analysis:
It is evident in the data provided that in all of the five years, there was an increase in the countrys Gross National Product (GNP) by industrial origin. In 2007, the GNP growth rate increased by 10.7% compared to the GNP in 2006. The service sector having contributed the largest amount in the increase in GNP has a percentage increase of 11.1%. The GNP by expenditure shares also increased by 10.7% at current prices even though there was a decrease of 2.45 and 3.35 in exports and imports, respectively. There was still an increase in GNP by expenditure shares due to the big increase of 13.4% in capital formation. In 2009, GNP by industrial origin only had an increase of 5.5% and this is because there were only slight increases in both Agricultural sector and Service sector and a decrease of 2.3% in the Industry sector. The GNP by expenditure shares in 2009 there was also an increase of 5.5% even though there was a decrease in capital formation, exports and imports by 5.4%, 12.2% and 18.5%, respectively. There was an increase because there was still a big increase in government consumption of 13. 6% and 7.5% in personal consumption expenditure.
The GNP by industrial origin in 2010 increased by 10.7%. This is because there was increase in all the three sectors especially in the industry sector which increased by 14.9%. This is due to the foreign investors coming to out country.
GDP Analysis:
The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2006 and 2007 increased by 10.3%. The service sector increased by 11.1% which is caused by the income tax returns of professionals offering different types of services. In 2008 and 2009, GDP increased by a minimal percentage of 3.3%. GDP in years 2009 and 2010 increased by 10.9% at current prices. This is due to the big increases in the Industry sector of 14.9% and 10.6% in the service sector.
Both GDP and GNP are just instruments used by economists to measure the countrys economic stand. But it cannot indicate the certainty of whether the country really has an improving economy or not. Because the GDP and GNP still involves the inflation rate of goods and services. If the price of products is increasing then GDP and GNP will also increase but it does not always indicate a better economy. For me, a better economy is an economy wherein only a few number of people live below the poverty line. A better economy is a state wherein people can afford basic needs such as shelter, water, and food. A better economy leads to the betterment of each Filipino.
