Suppose a gold miner finds a gold nugget and sells the nugget to a mining company for $500. the mining company melts down the gold, purifies it, and sells it to a jewelry maker for $1,000. the jewelry maker fashions the gold into a necklace that it sells to a department store for $1,500. finally, the department store sells the necklace to a customer for $2,000. how much has gdp increased as a result of these transactions?

The GDP will increase by $2,000 as a result of these transactions

Explanation:

When trying to calculate the increase in GDP caused by a series of transactions, we do not add all the transactions, instead we look at the price of the final good and that is the increase in GDP. In this case the final good is the necklace that the store department sells for $2,000 therefore we will only consider the final transaction. So the GDP will increase by $2,000 as a result of this series of transactions because the final good sold for $2,000.
