In 2004, there were 110 compact discs sold at $18.00, and 200 tennis racquets sold at $90.00. The nominal gross domestic product (110 compact discs * $18.00 compact disc's pricing for 2004) + (200 tennis racquets * $90.00 tennis racquets pricing for 2004) = 1,980 + 18,000 = $19,980 gross domestic product for 2004 using 2004 prices.
