Definitions

Exports are added to domestic consumption as they represent goods and services produced in New Zealand, while imports are subtracted. Imports represent goods and services produced by other economies.
Gross domestic product (GDP) production measure: total market value of goods and services produced in New Zealand, minus the cost of goods and services used in the production process.
Gross national income: all income received by New Zealand residents as a result of participating in a production process (domestic or foreign) or as a result of the assets they own. This income consists of remuneration of employees, interest, dividends, taxes, and subsidies related to production, and imports.
