Is a meal you make for a dinner party counted in the US GNP?

No, a meal you make for a dinner party would not be counted in the US Gross National Product (GNP). The GNP measures the total value of all final goods and services produced by businesses and individuals within a country's borders in a specific time period. Personal consumption of goods and services, including meals cooked at home, is not included in the calculation of GNP.
