The gross domestic product (GDP) of the United States is defined as the market value of all final goods and services produced within the United States in a given period of time. Based on this definition, indicate which of the following transactions will be included in (that is, directly increase) the GDP of the United States in 2018.

It sells the wood to Buildit and Partners, a developer, for use in the production of a new house that will be built in the United States in 2018. (Note: Focus exclusively on whether production of the wood increases GDP directly, and ignore the effect of production of the new house on GDP.)
