How does gross domestic product (GDP) differ from gross national income (GNI) ?

Answer: GDP measures the money that a country makes in its own land, while GNI measures the money it makes in other countries and at home.

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and Gross National Income (GNI) are closely related, but are not the same:

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a monetary value that measures a nation's overall economic activity, including all the finished goods and services produced in a specific time period. Gross National Income (GNI) is the sum of a nation's GDP and the net income it receives from overseas. GNI measures all income of a country's residents and businesses, regardless of where it's produced, since it measures the income earned - including income from investments - that flows back into the country.
