Methods: In Georgia GDP is calculated by following methods:
The production approach is a concept of value added. As an aggregate measure of production,
the GDP of a country is equal to the sum of the gross value added of all resident institutional units
engaged in production (plus any taxes, and minus any subsidies, on products not included in the
value of their outputs). On the other hand, gross value added is the difference between output
and intermediate consumption.
By expenditure approach GDP is equal to final consumption expenditure plus gross capital
formation, plus exports minus imports.
By income approach GDP is equal to compensation of employees plus taxes, less subsidies, on
production and imports, plus mixed income, gross, plus operating surplus, gross.
Gross National Income (GNI) is equal to GDP less primary incomes payable to non-resident
units plus primary incomes receivable from non-resident units.
Net National Income (NNI) is obtained by deducting the consumption of fixed capital from GNI.
Gross National Disposable Income is equal to GNI at market prices less current transfers
(other than taxes, less subsidies, on production and imports) payable to non-resident units, plus
the corresponding transfers receivable by resident units from the rest of the world.
Net National Disposable Income is obtained by deducting the consumption of fixed capital from
Gross National Disposable Income.
