The income method focuses on the incomrle that goes to the various factors of pro- duction (labor, capital, and land). The expendi- ture method focuses on the final expendittire on consumption, investment, and exports (less im- ports, which are subtracted because imported goods and services are included in consumption and investment). Since some goods and services are not exchanged for money but are produced for own use or barter, the value of many such goods and services is imputed and included in the gdp estimates.
