In the GDP equation, net exports are subtracted. The GDP equation is typically expressed as:
GDP = C + I + G + (X - M)
Where:
- C = Consumption
- I = Investment
- G = Government Spending
- X = Exports
- M = Imports
Net exports (X - M) is the term that is subtracted, as it accounts for the difference between what a country exports and what it imports.
So, the answer is Net exports.
