Finance:GDP 3.0
From HandWiki
GDP 3.0 is an economic indicator intended to replace the Gross Domestic Product, which is the main macroeconomic indicator in the System of National Accounts (SNA).[1] Rather than simply adding together all expenditures like the gross domestic product, GDP 3.0 is balanced by such factors as income distribution and cost associated with environmental degradation.[2][3][4]
GDP 3.0 is roughly defined by the following formula:
- GDP 3.0 = (Weighted personal consumption + Circular, household and community work +
Capital formation (incl. forestry and biodiversity) + Other positive contributions − Environmental deterioration) X 1/Palma ratio
where the Palma ratio, after Chilean economist José Gabriel Palma, is defined as : Top decile's income ÷ bottom four deciles' income.[5][6]
GDP 3.0 was first proposed by professor Serge Pierre Besanger[7] in a Straits Times article dated 21 December 2019.[8][9][10]
