Answer:

potential output or natural GDP

Step-by-step explanation:

Potential gross domestic product (GDP) is the level of output which any economy can produce at a constant inflation rate.

When GDP falls short of that natural limit, it means the country is failing to live up to its economic potential. When GDP exceeds that natural limit, inflation is likely to follow. This is why potential GDP is sometimes referred to as potential output or natural GDP.
