Answer:

C) Shoes produced abroad and imported by a U.S. company

Explanation:

The gross domestic product includes the market value of all final and legal goods and services produced within the country during a specific period of time.

Shoes produced abroad and imported into the US are included in the GDP calculations as imports but they decrease net exports. That means they decrease GDP, so they are not included in it.
