GDP (Gross Domestic Product) refers to the total value of all final goods and services produced within a country during a particular year. It represents the total amount of all the finished goods and services produced in a country within a financian year.
For example, if wheat is sold at Rs 8 per kg to a flour mill, that sells flour to a biscuit company, that then uses the flour to make biscuits. Hence, the value of the biscuits would be counted, not the same as th value of flour. This is because the value of biscuits includes the value of intermediate goods and their production.
