Suppose nominal GDP in 2009 was $100 billion and in 2010 it was $260 billion. The general price index in 2009 was 100 and in 2010 it was 180. Between 2009 and 2010, the real GDP rose by approximately

gross domestic investments exceeds depreciation.

Suppose nominal GDP was $360 billion in 1990 and $450 billion in 2000. The appropriate price index (1985 = 100) was 120 in 1990 and 125 in 2000. Between 1990 and 2000, real GDP

increase by $60 billion

If in some year gross investment was $120 billion and net investment was $65 billion, then in that year the country's capital stock

increased by 65 billion.

National income accountants can avoid multiple counting by

only calculating final goods.
