What to Focus On

  • Classification helps study economic activities in a simple and useful way.
  • Primary, secondary, and tertiary sectors are based on the nature of activity.
  • The three sectors are interdependent.
  • Primary sector uses natural resources directly.
  • Secondary sector makes goods through manufacturing.
  • Tertiary sector supports production and provides services.
  • Production is counted by value, not by number of items.
  • Final goods are counted in GDP.
  • Intermediate goods are not counted separately.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Primary sector means the farming sector only.

Only final goods should be counted, so all goods sold at earlier stages must also be added separately.

GDP and GVA are the same thing.
