2. Jacques buys a bottle of Italian wine: included in Imports (M) account of the GDP because it is consumed in U. S soil but not produced there.

3. The state of Pennsylvania repaves highway PA 320, which goes through the center of Swarthmore: included in government purchases (G) account of the GDP because repaves are paid by the state of Pennsylvania.
