Joe has sold the house he has been living in for 10 years to the Smiths family

He sold the house at $300,000

Joe receives $50,000 more than the original price bargained 10 years ago

He pays the real estate agent a commission of 5%

= 5/100

= 0.05

Therefore the increase in gross domestic product can be calculated as follows

= $300,000×0.05

= $15,000

Hence, the transaction will increase the gross domestic product by $15,000
