  1. you might want to add that for things not included in GDP gifts and transfer payments have
    Public transfer payments:
    Recipients contribute nothing to the current production
    Welfare payments or social security
    Taxes paid by individuals are given to the public
    and
    Private transfer payments produce no output
    Simply transfer funds from one private individual to another
    Ex: Scholarship
