Gross National Product (GNP):
Represents the total value of goods and services produced by a country's citizens, both domestically and abroad, during a specific period.

Refers to the reduction in the value of capital assets due to wear and tear, obsolescence, or other factors.
Formula: NNP = GNP − Depreciation
