Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Gross national product includes earnings of U.S. corporations overseas and U.S. residents working overseas, whereas gross domestic product does not include these earnings. Gross domestic product includes earnings from current production in the United States that accrue to foreign residents or foreign-owned firms, while gross national product excludes these items. GDP has become more attractive because in the current, more globalized economy, the nationality of workers and firms has become harder to distinguish. Hence, the switch to relying on location of production.
