11) Describe the three different approaches to measuring the amount of economic activity that
occurs during a period of time and explain why they all give identical measurements.
Answer: The approaches are the product approach, which measures the amount of output
produced; the income approach, which measures the incomes received by producers of output;
and the expenditure approach, which measures the amount of spending by the ultimate
purchasers of output. They give identical measurements because everything that is produced is
purchased by someone, so the expenditure and product approaches must be equal, and because
anything that is purchased means that someone is earning income in the same amount, so the
expenditure and income approaches must be equal.
