Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
when we include intermediate goods in the estimation of GDP we face the problems like:
A
Double accounting
B
Unemployment
C
Poverty
D
Overestimation of GDP
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Many key goods, including peacefulness, environmental protection or family bonding, are not measured in GDP because they do not involve transactions. In fact, GDP includes pollution, crime, the health costs of cigarettes and environmental disasters as ‘growth’ because they generate spending.

Detailed explanation-2: -To avoid double counting-adding the value of output to the GDP more than once-GDP counts only final output of goods and services, not the production of intermediate goods or the value of labor in the chain of production.
