14 Useful mathematical tricks Exponential growth rate on a log-log scale: X t+1 = (1 + γ) X t X t = (1 + γ) t X 0 ln (X t ) = ln (X 0 ) + t ln (1 + γ) ln (X 0 ) + γt For mental calculations, the following approximations are very useful: ln ln (1 + γ) γ 0 γ 2 10 = Thomas Chaney (Sciences Po) Macroeconomics Measurements 10 / 33

18 GDP: Gross Domestic Product GDP answers the following question: What is the value of everything that has been produced in a country over the course of a year? Thomas Chaney (Sciences Po) Macroeconomics Measurements 14 / 33
19 Nominal GDP: 3 equivalent definitions Def 1 Nominal GDP measures the sum of the value added of all domestic agents in a given year, measured in domestic currency (euros for France). Def 2 Nominal GDP measures the sum of all the value of final goods produced by domestic agents in a given year. Def 3 Nominal GDP measures the sum of the income of all domestic workers, and the profits generated by all domestic firms in a given year. Thomas Chaney (Sciences Po) Macroeconomics Measurements 15 / 33
20 Definitions Value added: value of sales minus value of intermediate inputs. Domestic: agents residing in the country (not necessarily citizens). National: citizens of the country. Agents: firms, self employed workers and government entities. Thomas Chaney (Sciences Po) Macroeconomics Measurements 16 / 33
