Are indirect business taxes included in the measurement of GDP?

Asked by Christina070 (111points) April 17th, 2012

I have to calculate the GDP for an economy, but are indirect business taxes included in this?

The formula is: GDP= C+I+G+(X-M)
C= Consumption, I= Investment, G=Government, X=Exports, M=Imports.

I am not sure where to include indirect business taxes in this formula.
