market value; goods

The gross domestic product (GDP) of the United States is defined as the _market value_ of all _final goods and services_ in a given period of time.

Explanation:

Calculo, a U.S. electronics company, produces a calculator at a plant in Indonesia on March 27, 2015. Calculo imports the calculator into the United States on May 18, 2015. The GDP won't be affected by this mainly because it is imported.

Rotato, a U.S. tire company, produces a set of tires at a plant in Michigan on September 25, 2015. It sells the set of tires to Speedmaster for use in the production of a two-door coupe that will be made in the United States in 2015. (Note: Focus exclusively on whether the production of the set of tires increases GDP directly, and ignore the effect of the production of the two-door coupe on GDP.) This would have an effect on the GDP because it is a finished domestic product.

An accountant starts a client's 2015 tax return on April 14, 2016, finishing it just before midnight on April 15, 2016.--- This is excluded, the 2015 gdp won't be affected by this.

Fastlane, a Japanese automobile company, produces a sedan at a plant in Indiana on December 9, 2015. A family buys the sedan on December 24. ---It is included as it affects the GDP.

Awake Cafe, a U.S. coffee company, produces a latte at its location in Minneapolis on January 14, 2015. It sells the latte to a customer immediately. It affects the 2015 gdp because it's a domestic product.
