Answer 1

GDP is the final production value of goods and services that is produced within the domestic boundary of a country in a financial year

it only includes final goods and services

it does not include secondhand items or intermediate goods

it does not include stock or bond

it does not include secondhand items as well

1.

in case one when couple buys to show tickets then it will come under the consumption so it will be counted under GDP

2 In second case long-term bonds, it will not include in GDP as explained well above
