  4. Measurement of National Income • Income Approach  NNP at factor cost OR National Income • Output Approach  GDP at factor cost • Expenditure Approach  GDP at market Prices

  5. Expenditure Approach C+I+G+X-M GDP at market price - Indirect sales tax + Indirect subsidies  GDP at factor cost + Net income from abroad  GNP at factor cost - Depreciation  NNP at factor cost  Output Approach Factor Income-from abroad Factor Income paid abroad  Income Approach  W+I+R+P

  6. Expenditure Approach C+I+G+X-M GDP at market price - Indirect sales tax + Indirect subsidies  GDP at factor cost + Net income from abroad  GNP at factor cost - Depreciation  NNP at factor cost  Output Approach Factor Income-from abroad Factor Income paid abroad  Income Approach  W+I+R+P

  7. Income Approach • W+I+R+P = NNP at factor cost • Profits are stated net of depreciation / capital consumption allowances • If the figures exclude net income from abroad, NDP at factor cost can be obtained. • NDP at factor cost + Net income from abroad =

  8. Output Approach • The total value of the final goods and services produced by the primary / secondary / tertiary industries • In order to avoid double counting, the value-added method is adopted to exclude intermediate goods. • GDP at factor cost + Indirect Taxes – Indirect Subsidies = • Distinguish between Indirect / Direct / Business / Personal Taxes

  9. Expenditure Approach • People spend their income. Thus, the total expenditure on final goods and services must be equal to the total value of final goods and services produced domestically. • Any output that is not sold to consumers is bought by producers in the form of unintended inventory investment. • C+I+G+(X-M) = Aggregate / Total expenditure

  10. Items excluded from National Income Accounting • Second-hand goods • Intermediate goods • Non-marketed goods / services Volunteer work / Housework • Unreported / Illegal market transactions

  11. Merits & Uses of National Income Statistics • Reflecting & comparing the standards of living of different countries Per capita real GNP  standard of living • Providing information to the government and firms for economic planning • Reflecting the economic growth of a country % change in real GNP over a period of time

  12. Limitations of National Income Statistics • Factors that may understate the standard of living / the welfare • Exclusion of the value of leisure Same Q produced with fewer working hours  higher welfare • Exclusion of non-marketed / unreported transactions

  13. Limitations of National Income Statistics • Factors that may overstate the standard of living / the welfare • Undesirable Side-effects of Production Air pollution / traffic congestion /… Understate the real / social costs to society  externality /divergence between social costs & private costs

  14. National Income concepts • GDP at Market Price • GDP at Factor Cost • GNP at Market Price • GNP at Factor Cost • NDP at Market Price • NDP at Factor Cost • NNP at Market Price • NNP at Factor Cost • Personal Income • Disposable Income
