Explanation

GDP (Gross Domestic Product) measures total output produced within a country, while NDP (Net Domestic Product) subtracts the depreciation of capital goods that occurs during production. This depreciation is called 'Consumption of Fixed Capital' - it represents the wear and tear, obsolescence, or destruction of capital assets (machinery, buildings, infrastructure) used in the production process. The difference GDP - NDP = Consumption of Fixed Capital.
