Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

GDP is simply a measure of total production. It does not include many things which affect the quality of life. For example, it does not include an adjustment for changes in quality of products, underground economic activity, changes in leisure time, nonmarket transactions, or take into account desirable or undesirable social side-effects associated with production and consumption.
