10. INVESTMENT
Investment refers to addition to the capital
stock of the economy.
Gross Investment: Total addition made to the capital
stock of an economy during a year is called Gross
Investment. Capital stock includes fixed assets and
unsold stock.
Net Investment: The actual addition made to the
capital stock of an economy during a year is called Net
Investment.
Net Investment = Gross Investment – Depreciation.
11. DEPRECIATION
Depreciation refers to fall in the value of
fixed assets as result of normal wear and tear, passage
of time or expected obsolescence.
It is also called Consumption of fixed
Capital.
12. Circular Flow of Income (Two Sector Model)
Circular Flow of Income is a
diagrammatic presentation of the interdependence
between different sectors of an economy.
Assumptions
(i) There are only two sectors, namely households and
firms.
(ii) It is a closed economy.
14. Real Flow (Physical Flow):
Households supply factor services like land, labour,
capital and organization to the firms.
The firms produce goods and services and supply them
to households. It is called Generation Phase. It does not
involve the use of money.
15. Money Flow (Nominal Flow):
Firms pay Rent, Wages, Interest and Profit (Factor
Payments) to the households. It is called Distribution
Phase.
Households pay it back to the firms in the form of
consumption expenditure. It is called Disposition or
Dispensation Phase. Here money flows between
sectors.
16. Normal Residents
Normal Residents are those
individuals and institutions who normally reside in a
country for more than one year, and whose centre of
economic interest lies in that country.
17. DOMESTIC TERRITORY
Domestic territory includes the following:
(i) Land within the borders of the country.
(ii) Ships and aircrafts owned and operated by normal
residents.
(iii) Fishing boats, oil and natural gas rigs and floating
platforms operated by the residents of a country in
the international waters where they have exclusive
rights of operation.
(iv)Embassies, consulates and military establishments
of a country located abroad.
18. NET INDIRECT TAX
Net Indirect Tax is the
difference between Indirect Tax paid by the
firms to the Government and the Subsidies
paid by the Government to firms.
19. FACTOR INCOME TRANSFER INCOME
Income earned for providing
factor services
Income earned without providing
any productive service.
It is included in National Income It is not included in National
Income.
Example: Rent, Wages, Interest
and Profit.
Unemployment allowance, Old
age pension, Scholarship etc.
20. Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA)
NFIA refers to the difference
between factor income received from the rest of
the world and factor income paid to the rest of
the world.
NFIA = Factor income earned from abroad – Factor
income paid to abroad.
21. Components of NFIA
• Net Compensation to Employees:
Wages earned by Indian residents outside India -
Wages earned by foreign residents in India.
• Net Income from property and entrepreneurship:
Rent, interest and dividend earned by Indian
residents abroad - Rent, interest and dividend
earned by foreign residents in India.
• Net Retained earnings
Retained Earnings of Indian companies located
abroad – Retained earnings of foreign companies
located in India.
22. National Income and Related Aggregates
Gross Domestic Product at Market Price (GDPMP): It is the market
value of all final goods and services produced within the
domestic territory of a country during a year. It includes Net
Indirect Taxes (NIT).
Goss Domestic Product at Factor Cost (GDPFC): It is the money
value of all final goods and services produced within the
domestic territory of a country during a year.
GDPFC = GDPMP – NIT.
23. • Net Domestic Product at Market Price (NDPMP): It is the
market value of all final goods and services produced within
the domestic territory of a country during a year after
deducting the value of depreciation.
• NDPMP = GDPMP – Depreciation.
• Net Domestic Product at Factor Cost (NDPFC): It is the money
value of all final goods and services produced within the
domestic territory of a country during a year after deducting
the value of depreciation.
• NDPFC = GDPFC – Depreciation
24. • Gross National Product at Market Price ( GNPMP): It is the
gross market value of all final goods and services produced
by the normal residents of a country during a year. It
includes Net Indirect Taxes (NIT).
GNPMP = GDPMP + NFIA
• Gross National Product at Factor Cost ( GNPFC): It is the
gross money value of all final goods and services produced
by the normal residents of a country during a year.
GNPFC = GNPMP - NIT
25. • Net National Product at Market Price (NNPMP): It is the net
market value of all final goods and services produced by the
normal residents of a country during a year. It includes Net
Indirect Taxes (NIT).
• NNPMP = GNPMP – Depreciation.
• Net National Product at Factor Cost (NNPFC ): It is the net
money value of all final goods and services produced by the
normal residents of a country during a year.
• NNPFC = NNPMP – NIT
• NNPFC is also called National Income.
26. METHODS OF CALCULATING NATIONAL INCOME
1. Value Added Method
(Output Method or Product Method)
Step 1
Calculate GVAMP ( GDPMP).
Formula to calculate GVAMP is:
GVAMP = Total Sales – Intermediate Consumption + change in
Stock.
27. • Find out total sales. Total sales include exports. Only if
domestic sales are given, we need to add exports. Subtract
intermediate consumption from sales.
Intermediate consumption includes imports. Only if
domestic purchase is given, we need to add imports.
Intermediate consumption refers to expenditure on raw
materials, advertisement and electricity.
Then change in stock is to be added. Change in stock is the
difference between closing stock and opening stock.
28. • Step 2
From GVAMP (GDPMP), if we subtract depreciation, we
will get NVAMP (NDPMP).
NVAMP = GVAMP– Depreciation.
When we subtract NIT (Indirect Taxes – Subsidies) from
NVAMP, we will get NVAFC.
NVAFC = NVAMP - NIT

9 IMPORT OF RAW MATERIALS BY FIRM X 50
10 EXPORT BY FIRM Y 30
36. Value added by X = Sales – Intermediate Consumption + Change in

Sales of X = 300
Intermediate Consumption = Purchase from Y + Import of raw
materials
= 100 + 50 = 150
Change in Stock = Closing Stock – Opening Stock = 20 – 5 = 15
Value added by X = 300 - 150 + 15 = 165 LAKHS
37. Value added by Y = Sales – Intermediate Consumption +
Change in Stock
Sales = 250
Intermediate Consumption = Purchase from X = 80
Change in Stock = Closing Stock – Opening Stock
= 15 – 10 = 5
Value Added by Y = 250 – 80 + 5

43. Precautions that should be taken while calculating National
Income by output method (Value Added Method or Product
Method)
• i) The value of intermediate goods should not be included.
• ii) The value of second hand goods should not be included.
• iii) The value of illegal goods should not be included.
• iv) The value of leisure items and non market goods should
not be included.
• v) The value of transfer payments should not be included.
44. INCOME METHOD
• Calculate NDPFC by using the formula:
NDPFC = Compensation of Employees + Operating
Surplus + Mixed Income of Self Employed.
45. • Compensation of Employees (COE) can be calculated by adding
Wages in cash, wages in kind, employers’ contribution to social
security schemes and pension on retirement. If COE is given in
the question, components can be ignored.
• Operating Surplus (OS) can be calculated by adding Rent
(actual rent and imputed rent) , Royalty, Interest ( Interest on
loans taken for productive services only) and profit (Profit =
Corporate tax + Dividend + Retained earnings).
46. • Mixed income of self employed refers to income of own
account workers (farmers, barbers etc) and unincorporated
enterprises (retail traders, small shop keepers etc)
• NNPFC = NDPFC + NFIA. NNPFC is called National
Income.

63. • Precautions that should be taken while calculating National
Income by Income Method
• a) Do not include Transfer Income. .
• b) The incomes illegal activities should not be included.
• c) The income earned by selling second hand goods should not be
included. Commission earned by a broker in the sale of second
hand goods can be included.
• d) The income earned from leisure time activities should not be
included.
• e) The income earned by selling shares should not be included. It is
considered as transfer income because only transfer of ownership
takes place.
65. • (i) Identify the sources of final expenditure and classify
them as Private Final Consumption Expenditure,
Government Final Consumption Expenditure, Gross
Domestic capital Formation and Net Exports.
• (ii) If Net Domestic Capital Formation is given, add
depreciation to it to get Gross Domestic Capital
Formation. If Domestic Fixed Capital formation is given,
add change in stock to get domestic capital formation.
66. • (iii) Add PFCE, GFCE, GDKF and Net Exports to get GDPMP.

79. • Precautions that should be taken while calculating
National Income by expenditure method
• a) The expenditure on intermediate goods should not
be included.
• b) The expenditure on second hand goods and scraps
should not be included but the expenditure made on
broker's service as commission can be included.
• c) The expenditure on transfer payments should not
be included.
• d) The expenditure on illegal goods should not be

• e) The expenditure on products produced through
leisure time activities and nonmarket activities should
not be included.
80. • NOMINAL GDP
Nominal GDP is the market value of all
final goods and services produced in a country in a
year. Increase in prices will lead to increase in
nominal GDP
• Nominal GDP = Output x Current year prices.
81. • REAL GDP
Real GDP refers to GDP at constant prices. It
is the value of goods and services produced in the
current year, taking base year prices in to
consideration.
Formula to calculate real GDP
Real GDP = X 100
Current Price Index = x 100
• P1 - Current Year Price P0– Base Year Price
82. • Real GDP is a better index of welfare. It takes price
rise in to consideration. Real GDP increases only
when production of goods and services increases.
Nominal GDP may increase just because of price
rise.
83. • GDP Deflator: The Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
deflator is a measure of general price inflation. It is
calculated by dividing nominal GDP by real GDP and
then multiplying by 100.
• GDP Deflator =
84. The problem of Double Counting while estimating
National Income
The counting of the value of a commodity more than
once while calculating National Income is called
double counting.
If the value of intermediate goods is included, it leads
to double counting. For example: A Baker uses
wheat flour to make bread. If we include the value
of both wheat flour and bread, it leads to double
counting.
85. Double counting can be avoided by using the
following methods.
• (i) Calculate only the value of final goods and
services. Do not include the value of intermediate
goods.
• (ii) Subtract intermediate consumption from the
sales by a firm while estimating National Income
by value added method.
86. • GDP AND WELFARE
GDP is not a good indicator of welfare
(development)
• (i) Barter system still exists in our country. The
value of goods exchanged under barter system is
not counted in GDP.
• (ii) Increase in the production of cigarettes and
liquor will lead to increase in GDP. However, the
production of these harmful goods reduces
welfare.
87. • (iii) GDP ignores externalities.
• (iv) If population increases along with GDP,
welfare will not improve.
• (v) Increase in prices may lead to increase in GDP,
even if production does not increase.
• (vi) Unequal distribution of GDP will not improve
welfare.
88. EXTERNALITIES
An economic activity can affect even
those people who are not connected with it. It is
called externality. There are negative externalities
and positive externalities.
89. • Negative externalities are the negative effects
and positive externalities are positive effects.
Suppose, many chemical factories come up in
an area. It will cause pollution. The entire
society will suffer. This will affect public
welfare. It is negative externalities.
• On the other hand, if many firms come
up in an area, transport, banking, health and
educational facilities will develop. It will
improve public welfare. It is positive
externalities.
