Consumption (C) as a Component of GDP
Government Spending (G) as a Component of Aggregate Expenditure
An economy reports the following activities for a single year (all figures in billions of dollars): A domestic firm purchases new machinery for $150, the total value of unsold goods in warehouses increases by $50, household spending on new cars is $200, the government pays $100 in salaries to public school teachers, and the government distributes $75 in unemployment benefits. Based on this information, what is the total value of Investment for this year?

Distinguishing Consumption from Investment in GDP Accounting
A country's automotive company produces $100 million worth of cars in a single year. During that year, it sells $70 million worth of cars to domestic households and exports $20 million worth to foreign buyers. The remaining $10 million worth of cars are not sold and are added to the company's inventory. Based on the expenditure approach, what is the total contribution of these activities to the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for that year?
