An economy increases timber output by cutting natural forests. What is the correct analysis of present and future welfare?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Current GDP may rise but future welfare may fall

GDP records the market value of timber produced, so cutting forests can raise current measured output. However, welfare is broader than GDP and includes environmental quality, biodiversity, and the availability of resources for future generations. Depletion may therefore impose future costs that are not fully deducted from current GDP. Hence C is correct; A ignores sustainability, while B and D are too narrow.
