Goods Goods

Intermediate Goods
 Refer to those goods which are used either for resale or for further production in the same year.
Intermediate Goods include:
a. Goods purchased for resale (like milk purchased by a Dairy Shop).
b. Goods used for further production (like milk used for making sweets).
 Intermediate goods are used up in the same year. If they remain for more than one year, then
they are treated as final goods.
Examples:

National Income and Related Aggregates

(i) Steel sheets used for making automobiles and copper used for making
utensils are intermediate goods since they are purchased with the purpose of
using them completely during the same year for productionof steel
gates/utensils.
(ii) Mobile sets purchased by a mobile dealer are intermediate products because these are
purchased for resale.
(iii) Chalks, dusters, etc. purchased by a school are intermediate products because
these are used up completelyduring the same year in the production of
educational services.
(iv) Paper purchased by a publisher is an intermediate product because it is used as
raw material for productionof books in the same year.
(v) Purchase of rice by a grocery shop is an intermediate product because it is purchased for
resale.
(vi) Coal used by a manufacturing firm is an intermediate product because it is
used as a non-factor input forproduction of other commodities during the
same year.
(vii) Fertilisers used by the farmers are intermediate products because these are
used up completely forproducing grains during the same year.
(viii) Cotton used by a spinning mill is an intermediate product because it is used
for further production ofclothes during the same year.

Final Goods: - Final goods refer to those goods which are used either for consumption or for
investment
1. Goods purchased by consumer households as they are meant for final consumption (like milk
purchased by households).
2. Goods purchased by firms for capital formation or investment (like machinery purchased by a
firm).

Examples:
(i) Machine purchased by a firm for installation in factory is a final good because it is purchased
for investment.
(ii) Milk purchased by households is a final good as it is purchased for consumption.
(iii) Furniture purchased by a school is a final product because it is purchased for investment.
(iv) Computers installed in an office is a final product because it is purchased for investment.
(v) Printer purchased by a lawyer for office use is a final product because it is purchased for
investment.
(vi) Blackboard used in a school is a final good because it is for investment. It is
not used up completely in ayear but remains for production of educational
services.
(vii) Second hand car purchased by a house hold is a final good because it is purchased for
consumption.

Note: - Final goods are neither resold nor used for any further transformation in the process of
production

Can The Same Good May be Final or Intermediate?

3
National Income and Related Aggregates

It is not possible to name one set of goods as final goods and another set as intermediate goods. The
same good may be final or intermediate good. The distinction depends on the end-use of the goods.
For example, sugar used as a raw material in the production of biscuits is an intermediate good. But,
sugar used by the households in milk or tea is a final good. Likewise, paper purchased by a student is a
final good. But when purchased by a publisher (for making books), it is an intermediate good.

Consumer goods or consumption goods


These are final goods (Durable goods, Semi durable goods, Non-durable or perishable goods, Services)
directly used by ultimate consumer household for satisfaction of wants. For example: - sugar if used
by consumer to make biscuits is consumer good.

Consumption goods
1. Non-durable goods: Goods use in a single act of consumption Example:- coke, ice-cream
2. Semi-durable goods Use for some longer period of time Example:- tooth-paste
3. Durable goods Can be used for several years Example:- furniture, television
4. Services: - an Intangible thing which directly satisfies human wants Example: - doctor service,
mobile service.

Capital goods these are durable final goods used by the producers in the production process. They
do not change during production process. For example fixed assets like machines, plants and equipment
used in production process.

Concept of Investment
Investment:- Investment means additions made to the existing stock of capital during the year. It
increases productivity capacity of the production i.e I = Δ K ( I = Investment, K – Capital Stock)
Investment can be gross or net

Two types
1. Gross capital formation
2. Net capital formation

Gross capital formation/investment:- The total Addition of capital goods to the existing stock
of capital during a given time period is called cross investment stocks components of gross investment
are:
1. Gross fixed capital formation
2. Stock investment

A Gross fixed investment or capital formation


It is expenditure on the following :

5
National Income and Related Aggregates

 gross business fixed investment. It is defined as expenditure on fixed assets like


machinery equipment factory building etc
 gross residential construction investment. It is amount spent on construction of flats
and residential houses by producer households and government sectors
 Gross public investment. It is expenditure by government on hospitals school roads
dams etc
B Inventory / stock investment
It is changing stock of finished goods, Semi finished goods and raw material
Calculation :
Inventory investment = closing stock of finished goods, Semi finished and raw materials -
opening stock of finished goods semi finished and raw materials

Net capital formation/investment:- Gross capital formation – depreciation / consumption of fixed


capital

Depreciation or consumption of fixed capital.-It is the loss in the value of fixed assets during use due
to
(a) Normal wear and tear and
(b) Expected obsolescence
It does not include capital loss due to unexpected obsolescence like natural calamities, theft or
accident

Depreciation is also known as :

 consumption of fixed capital.


 Replacement cost of fixed capital.
 Current replacement cost.
 Capital consumption.

Gross = Net + Depreciation

Depreciation = Gross – Net

Net = Gross - Depreciation

Circular Flow of Income

Economic Sectors of the Economy


For the purpose of a proper and systematic study of the circular flow of income, we divide
an economy into four sectors. These are (i) Households, (ii) Firms, (iii) Government, and
(iv) Rest of the World.

Households Firms

Economic Sectors

Government Rest of the World

1. Household sector Its task is the consumption of goods and services. This sector is the
owner of Land, Labour, capital an organization and these factors are hired by producer
sector from the from this sector.

2. Production sector Its task is the production and sale of goods and services. This sector
is in the form of production firms and corporations. It hires factors of production like
land , labor, capital an entrepreneurial skills from the households.
3. The government sector Its task is activities concerning collection of taxes and
subsidies. It act as regulator between first two sectors. With the money received, it
undertakes public welfare and maintain law and order. Government sector is also
producer of goods and services in public sector.
4. Rest of the world sector Its task is exports of surplus and imports of necessary goods
and services. it is also called external sector. It makes possible the flow of capital
between domestic economy and rest of the world.

Circular Flow Of Income


Circular flow of income: - Refers to the Continuous flow of activities of production, income
generation and consumption in various sectors of the economy.

Circular flow with two sector economy ( Household and Firm)


A simple economy assumes the existence of only two sectors i.e. household sector and firm sector.
Households represent the owner of all factors of production and the consumers of goods and services.
On the other hand, firms produce and sell goods and services to the households.
The circular flow of income involves two basic principles:
1. One's expenditure is other's income—The income of the producer is the same amount that the buyer
or consumer spends and vice versa.
7
National Income and Related Aggregates

2. Equality of Real and Nominal flow—Goods and services flow (real flow) in one direction
corresponded by equal money payments/incomes (nominal flow).

Circular Flow of Income


• Households supply factor services to the firms. (Flow 1)
• Firms make payments to factor services in the form of rent, wages, interest and profits. (Flow 2)
• The expenses incurred by the firms become the income of the households. This expenditure on
consumption of goods and services by households is known as consumption expenditure. Consumption
expenditure flows from households to firms. (Flow 3)
• Households use this income received from firms to purchase different goods and services produced by
firms for their own consumption. (Flow 4)
Thus, organisation of production process results in employment of factor services, generation of income
for factor services, production of different types of goods and services, and consumption of different
goods and services. It is a continuous, ongoing, never-ending process and is called circular flow of
income.
The output or product or real flow from the seller to the buyer necessarily creates the income or
payment or money flow from the buyer to the seller.

Three phases of circular flow


1. Production phase or generation phase it refers to production of goods and services by the
producers sector with the help of factor services.
2. Distribution phase it corresponds to the flow of factor income (rent, wages etc.) from the
producer or firm to the households.
3. Disposition (expenditure) phase it refers to expenditure on the purchase of goods and services
by the households and other sectors of the economy.

Production = income generated = expenditure = production (again)

Real Flow and Money Flow

Real Flow (Physical flow):


It is the flow of factor services from the household sector to the producing sector and corresponding
flow of goods and services from the producing sector to the household sector . It is a real flow as flow
of goods and services actually happens. It is a continuous process. It can either be in form of:
(a) Flow of factors of production or services like labor, capital, Land from household to the
producer.
(b) Real flow of goods and services from producers to the households.
In this only two sectors are interdependent on each other i.e producers (firms) and households.

Money Flow (Nominal flow):


When the factor incomes rent, interest, profit and wages flow from the producing sector to the
household sector as monetary rewards for the services rendered by them it is said to be money flow .

Circular flow prevails when the household spends their income (Wages are salaries) on the goods and
services produced by the firms that is why the money goes back to the firms from households through
their expenditure

The basic principles of circular flow of income and products are


1. Real flow and money flow are opposite to each other which causes circular flow.
2. There should be continuous in and out.
3. Flow of income between different sectors always indicate that there is a payment and receipts
4. It should be mandatory for the firm to sell all that is produced to the households for the
household to spend their entire income on.

Leakages and injections in the circular flow of income


A leakage in the circular flow of income happens when some money is withdrawn through some
macroeconomic variables such as saving, imports , taxes by the government and payment of old debts.
On the other hand, Injections in the circular flow of income are when there are some additions made
by some economic variables. For example investment spending, government spending and export
earning etc. In short injection boost up the speed of the economic activities and leakages splatter the
circular flow of income. The essence of macroeconomic equilibrium is that injection should be equal
to leakages as condition is C + S = C+I which means S= I or leakages = Injections
Difference between leakages and injections

Leakages Injections
These flow variables have a negative impact on These causes positive impact on the process of
the process of production production or income generation
These are patrols from the circular flow of These are additions to the circular flow of
income income
Leakages reduces flow of income and Injections add to the production capacity of the
production and reduces the demand of goods and economy and generate demand of goods and
services services
Example saving, taxation and imports Examples investment, exports

CONCEPT OF STOCK AND FLOW


Stock
Stock is the quantity measured at a particular point of time (no time dimension)
Example
 100 Cr population of India in 2001
 Balance sheet of the company As on 31st March 2010
 Stock of raw material in the Godown of a factory on 31st March 2010.

Flow is the quantity measured at a particular period of time. (has time dimension)
Example
 Monthly wages of a labor.
 Profit and loss a/c of the company
 National income of a country

Difference between stock and flow


Basis Stock Flow
Meaning Stock variables are measured at a Flow variables are measured over a period of
particular point of time time,
Time Stock has no time dimension Flow has time dimension like per hour, per day,
per month and per year
Concept Stock is a static concept Flow is a dynamic concept
Example Examples Wealth, Balance sheet Examples Investment, Profit and loss account.
GPD
During a period of time, with inflows, stock will go up and with outflows, stock will come down.
Example: If we are determining net change in the population of a country during a given year, new
births (inflows) take place and a number of deaths (outflows) also take place. If number of births are
more than number of deaths in the country, the size of population (stock) will go up at the end of the
year and vice versa

National Income and Related


Aggregates
Concept Of National Income
National income is the sum total of factor incomes earned by normal residents of a country during
the period of an accounting year.
So national income includes
(i) Factor incomes only, and
(ii) Income of only the normal residents of a country.

Factor income vs Transfer income

(1) Factor Incomes: Factor incomes are the payments made by the producing units (firms) to
the households (owners of the factors of production) for the use of their factor services.
Factor incomes (or factor payments) are broadly classified as under:
(i) Compensation of employees (received by the households for rendering their services as
employees of the producing units).
(ii) Rent (received by the households for the use of their land by the producing units).
(iii) Interest (received by the households for the use of their capital by the producing units).
(iv) Profit (received by the households for the use of their entrepreneurial skills by the
producing units).
(2) Transfer Income: - is the earning for which no contribution is made to the flow of goods and
services. e.g. gift, donation, scholarship etc. In other words it is income received without
anything provided in return
In the estimation of national income, we include only these factor incomes (or factor
payments).

Factor Incomes are Different from Transfer Incomes Transfer incomes are those
incomes which are received by a person as help, donation or charity, etc. , whereas
12
National Income and Related Aggregates

factor incomes are those incomes which are received by the factors of production by
rendering their factor services. In other words, while factor income is 'earned income',
transfer income is 'unearned income'. Since, transfer incomes are not earned as rewards
for rendering factor services, these are not included in the estimation of national
income.
Difference between factor income and transfer income
Factor income or Factor payment Transfer Income or Transfer payment
It is the income received in return for rendering It is the income received without any
factor services by the factors of production. corresponding services.

These are included in national income. These are not included in national income
Example: Rent, wages, interest, and profit. Example: old age pension, scholarship of
Retirement pension. students, unemployment allowance, remittances
from abroad, financial help to earthquake

Resident vs Citizenship
(1) Normal Resident:
A resident ( or normal resident ) of a country is a person or an institution who ordinarily
resides in the country and whose Centre of economic interest lies also lies in that country.
ordinarily resides means A person residing in a country for a period of one year (or more).
This person may or may not be the citizen of that country.
And Centre of economic interest lies in that country means he carry out all his economic
activities such as production, consumption or investment in that country.

Thus, the following points may be noted about the concept of normal resident:
 Normal residents refer not only to individuals but also to institutions : All production
units/enterprises (i.e., institutional units) located in the domestic territory of a country are
included as normal residents as their 'Centre of economic interest' lies in the country where
they are located.
 Normal residents include nationals and non-nationals, i.e., it is not necessary that a normal
resident of a country is also its citizen.
For example, there are a large number of Indian software engineers who visit US for a span of
two or three years. For that period, they become the residents of US but not the citizens of US.
 International organisations like WTO , WHO , IMF are not considered as normal resident of
any country , but the people working in those organisations are treated as normal residents of
that country to which they belong.
For example: Indian working in the office of WTO located in New Delhi will be normal resident
of India.

An American working in UNO office located in India will be treated as normal resident of
America they are considered as the resident of the country to which they belong. But If that
American works in India for more than a year he is normal resident of India.
 Local employees working in foreign embassy are considered as normal resident of that country
For example Indian working in American embassy in India is the normal resident of India.and
Indian working in Indian embassy is also normal resident of india.
 Crew member, commercial travellers, seasonal workers of a country and any technician,
specialist from abroad for short visit in the country for installation or guidance will be treated a
normal resident of that country to which they belong.
For example commercial traveller from India in Japan and I.T programmer from India in USA
for installation of some program will be treated as normal resident of India as they belong to
India .
 Persons living in border areas who cross the border between two countries daily or regularly in
order to work in one country are the residents of the country in which they live. They are not the
residents of the country in which they are employed. (India and Nepal share open border and
many Nepalese cross the border day in and day out.)
 Medical patients and students remain the residents of their own country irrespective of the time
they live abroad.
 Officials, diplomats and members of the armed forces working in different parts of the world are
treated normal resident of that country to which he belong.
For example members of Indian armed forces deputed in Afghanistan will be treated as normal
resident of India as they belong to India.
 people staying in other country for the purpose of medical treatment, study ,to enjoy Holidays
or sports ,attending conferences will be normal resident of that country to which they belong.
For example member of Indian cricket team playing in South Africa will be treated as normal
resident of India as they belong to India.

Citizen: - Citizenship is a legal concept based on the place of birth of the person or some legal
provision allowing a person to become a citizen.

Economic territory
Economic Territory: - Geographical Territory Administered By A Government within Which
Persons, Goods And Capital Circulate Freely And Includes
• Political Frontiers Including Territorial Waters And Air Spaceships Aircrafts
• Fishing Vessels , Oil And Natural Gas Rigs
• Embassies, Consultants , Military Bases Etc

 Those parts of the political frontiers of a country where the government of that country does
Not enjoy the above “freedom” are not to be included in economic territory of that country.
One Example is “Embassies”.
 Government of India does not enjoy the above freedom in the foreign
Embassies located within India. So, these are not treated as a part of economic territory of India.
 They are treated as part of the economic territories of their respective countries.
 For example the U.S. embassy in India is a part of economic territory of the U.S.A. similarly; the
Indian embassy in Washington is a part of economic territory of India.

Net factor Income from Abroad


Net factor Income from Abroad is the difference between the factor income earned from abroad by the
normal residents of a country and income paid for the factor services rendered by non-residents within
the domestic territory of the country. The concept of Net factor Income from Abroad is used to
differentiate between national income and domestic income.

Net factor Income from Abroad = Factor Income from abroad by the Normal residents – Factor
Income of Non-residents in the domestic territory

Components of Net factor Income from Abroad


(i) Net compensation of employees: - It is the difference between the compensation of resident employees
working temporarily in foreign countries and the compensation of non-residents foreign employees
working temporarily in domestic territory of the country.
(ii) Net income from property and entrepreneurship :- It is equal to the difference between the income
received by way of interest, rent and dividend by the residents of the country and similar payments made
to the rest of the world.
(iii) Net retained earnings of resident companies abroad :- It is the difference between the retained
earnings of the resident companies located abroad and retained earnings of foreign companies located
in a country.

Net factor Income from Abroad = Net compensation of employees + Net property and entrepreneurship income
from abroad + Net retained earnings of residents companies abroad

Significance: National Income = Domestic income + NFIA

Relation between national product and Domestic product.


Domestic product concept is based on the production units located within domestic economic
territory, operated both by residents and non-residents.

National product concept based on resident and includes their contribution to production both
within and outside the economic territory.
National product = Domestic product + Residents contribution to production outside the economic
territory (Factor income from abroad) - Non- resident contribution to production inside the economic
territory (Factor income to abroad)

Question: Can gross domestic product be greater than gross national product?
Ans:- Domestic product can be greater than national product if factor income paid to the rest of the
world is greater than the factor income received from the rest of the world is i.e. when net-factor
income received from abroad is negative.

Factor Cost & Market Price


Explain the concept of indirect Tax

Ans : It refers to the difference between Indirect Tax paid by the enterprises to the Govt. & the
Subsidies paid by the Govt. to some of the enterprises. This concept is used to obtain the national
income at factor cost or factor prices. The NIT is deducted from market price (MP) to get factor cost
(FC).Indirect Tax is the amount of burden whose impact falls on one person or a group and the
incidence falls on other person or group. Subsidies refer to the financial assistance or aid provided by
the state to the weak & sick units
(i) Factor cost refers to all factor payments made by the producing unit to the factors of production for
rendering productive services in the production of goods and services.

(ii) Market price is the price at which a commodity is sold and purchased in the market.

Subsidies: These are the cash grants given by the government to the enterprises to encourage production
of certain commodities or to promote exports or to sell goods at prices lower than the free market prices.

Significance: Market price = Factor cost + Indirect taxes – Subsidies.

GDP: - The total market value of all final goods and services produced by all productive enterprises in
the domestic territory of a country in a year.

REAL GDP VS NOMINAL GDP


Nominal GDP
 It is the monetary value of all goods and services produced in an economy during a financial
year estimated using current market prices.

Real GDP
 It is the monetary value of all goods and services produced in an economy during a financial
year, estimated using base year prices.

Price index/ GDP deflator A Price index is a number showing the changes in the overall level of
prices. It shows a change in the general price level of an economy.

Price index/GDP deflator = Nominal GDP / Real GDP * 100

How Real GDP is derived?


Ans : Real GDP = Nominal GDP/Price Index X 100

Real GDP or Nominal GDP or


GDP at constant prices GDP at current year prices
It is the monetary value of all goods and It is the monetary value of all goods and services
services produced in an economy during a produced in an economy during a financial year,
financial year estimated using current market estimated using base year prices.
prices
Base year price is taken as constant. Market prices do not remain constant.

This GDP changes only due to change in output It changes due to change in both price and output
of the economy. So it is a reliable measure of of the economy. So it is not a reliable measure of
economic growth. economic growth.

Consumer price index:- Calculated by dividing the price of the basket of goods and services in a
given year by the price of the same basket in the base year multiplied by 100.

Consumer price index = Cost of Market Basket of Current Year / Cost of Market Basket of Base Year
* 100

Consumer price index GDP deflator


The goods purchased by consumers do not represent GDP deflator takes into account all such
all the goods which are produced in a country goods and services.
CPI includes prices of goods consumed by the GDP deflator does not include prices of
representative consumer, hence it includes prices of Imported goods.

GDP- Reliable Measure of Economic Growth

Limitations of GDP as a measure of economic welfare)


GDP Is An Important But Not A Perfect Measure Of Countries Economic Well Being Into Account
The Following ………
1. Non-monetary transactions-
 GDP remains underestimated as non-monetary transactions like services of housewife, barter
exchanges, enjoyment from hobbies like gardening, painting etc. are not included in GDP.
Although they increase economic welfare.
 These activities may be left out from estimate of national income due to the non-availability of
data. But these activities do contribute to welfare of the people.
 Since GDP may not account for such activities, it may be underestimated. As a result welfare
of the people is also underestimated.
2. Distribution of GDP – If the GDP of the country is rising, the welfare may not rise as a
consequence. This is because the rise in GDP may be concentrated in the hands of very few
individuals or firms. For the rest, the income may in fact have fallen. In such a case the welfare
of the entire country cannot be said to have increased
3. Externalities. Externalities refer to the benefits (or harms) a firm or an individual causes to
another for which they are not paid (or penalized). Externalities do not have any market in
which they can be bought and sold
Positive Externalities
 The social benefits are referred to as positive externalities.
 For example, construction of a highway or flyover reduces transport costs &
journey time to those who have not contributed towards the cost of construction.
 This is not reflected in GDP, & thus welfare is underestimated.
Negative externality
 Is referred as social cost harms.
 Polluting river by oil refinery reduces welfare through negative effect on Health..
 Welfare is less than what is indicated by GDP.
 GDP overstates welfare

Precaution in Expenditure Method


1. Expenditure on intermediate goods:-Do not include expenditure on intermediate goods and
services:-Intermediate expenditure is a part of final expenditure hence its inclusion leads to double
counting.
2. Expenditure on second hand goods; - Do not include expenditure on second- hand goods;-
Expenditure on these goods was accounted when they were purchased new.
3. Expenditure on shares and bonds: - Do not include expenditure on financial assets:-Purchasing
of financial assets only leads to transfer of money from one person or one institution to another
person or institution.
4. Production for self consumption:- Include imputed expenditure on own account produced output
used for consumption and investment:-The imputed value of owner occupied house, self consumed
output by farmers etc must be taken into account while estimating final expenditure.
5. Government expenditure on transfer payment :-Excluded:- does not lead to any production of
goods and services

Why are exports included in the estimation of domestic product by the expenditure method?
Ans. Expenditure method estimates expenditure on domestic product, i.e. expenditure on final goods
and services produced within the economic territory of the country. It includes expenditure by
residents and non- residents both. Exports, though purchased by non- residents, are produced within
the economic territory, and therefore, a part of domestic product.

Is net export a part of NFIA? Explain.


Ans. No, it is not.Net export, the difference between export and import (X- M), is a part of expenditure
on domestic product. While NFIA is the difference between income earned from abroad by the normal
residents of a country and income earned by non-residents in the domestic territory of that country. It
is not included in the domestic product rather it is a component of NI. Therefore both are different
concepts.

Income Method/Factor Payment Method/Distributed Share Method

National Income Is Measure In Terms Of Payments Made To Primary Factor of Production.

Components of income method

1. Compensation Of Employees:-Any human work done mentally or manually with the aim of
earning income is called labour. Thus income got in return for doing work in the production
process is called income from work.
i. Includes Wages And Salary (Both In Cash And Kind)
ii. Employers Contribution To Social Security Scheme

2. Income of self-employed ( Mixed income) :- Income of self-employed and household


enterprises is called mixed income because the same is mixture of income from his work
(compensation of employees) and income from his property (rent, interest and profit).

3. Income from property (operating surplus) :- Income from property is earned in two ways, (i)
by ownership, and (ii) by control of property. Income from ownership of property is called rent
and interest and that from control of property( entrepreneurship) as profit. Broadly, income from
property is called operating surplus which consists of rent, interest and profit.

Value added method/Output Method


Value Added Method: - Value added refers to the difference between value of output and the value of
intermediate consumption of each producing units in the country. Sum total of value added by all the
producing unit within the domestic territory of the country is equal to domestic product.

Steps taken in estimating N.I. by product/ value added method?


Measures the national income by estimating the contribution of each individual enterprise at that
particular stage of production in the domestic territory of the country in an accounting year
1. Classify all the production units:- Locate the domestic territory into distinct industrial sectors ie
primary, secondary and tertiary sectors.

a) Primary sector:-Exploits natural resources and produce goods and services it includes all
agricultural and allied activities.
b) Secondary sector:-Converts one goods into another by creating more utility from it.
c) Tertiary sector:-Provides useful services to primary and secondary sector that smoothen their
working. Such as banking, insurance, communication etc.

2. Estimate value of output:- As sum of sales and change in stock of all the 3 sectors.
3. Estimate value of intermediate consumption:-A sum of value of intermediate consumption of all
the 3 sectors.
4. Estimate GVAmp:- Value of output – Intermediate consumption.
5. Estimate NVAmp:- Deduct the value of depreciation from GVAmp.(NVAmp= NDPmp).
6. Estimate NDPfc:- Deduct the value of Net Indirect Taxes from NDPmp.
7. Estimate NNPfc :- Add the value of Net Factor Income from Abroad with NDPfc to reach NNPfc
or the N.I.

Difference between value of output and value added


Value of output Value added

Market value of all goods and services Difference between value of output and the
produced by a firm in a accounting year value of intermediate consumption

= Sales + change in stock( closing stock – = Value of Output – Intermediate consumption

33
National Income and Related Aggregates

1. Gross value of output:- value of output refers to the market value of the total output produced
by a firm during an accounting year
2. Intermediate consumption: - refers to the money value of raw materials used in the process
of production. Includes value of non-factor such as raw material etc.

Steps involved in production method/value added method

How to avoid problem of Double Counting


1. Final Output Method: - According to this method the value of intermediate goods is deducted from
the value of output. In other words value of final goods and services only is included in national income.
The value of the final output can be calculated by deducting the value of intermediate goods from the
value of output.

Value of Final Output = Value of Output – Value of Intermediate Goods

Note: - non marketed services are not included in national income


Certain goods and services which are not consumed by the household which are not purchased from
the market
Examples are:

1. Growing fruits and vegetables in kitchen garden , making paintings for one’s drawing room,
repairs on electrical equipments etc
2. Free services provided to family members such as father teaching to his own son
3. Domestic services by the housewives.

Precautions
1. Sale and purchase of second hand goods should not be included because it does not enter
into the current year’s production.
2. Commission and brokerage paid/received on sale of second hand goods should be included
3. Domestic services are not included. However production of services by paid employed
should be included
4. Own account production of fixed capital, firms and the government should be included
5. The value of intermediate goods should not be included in the national income
