CBSE Class 12 economics revision notes
chapter 2 national income and related
aggregates
Goods :In economics a goods is defined as any physical object, manmade, that could
command a price in the market and these are the materials that satisfy human wants and
provide utility

Consumption Goods : Those final goods which satisfy human wants directly. ex- ice-cream
and milk used by the households.

Capital Goods :Those final goods which help in production. These goods are used for
generating income. These goods are fixed assets of the producers.ex- plant and machinery.

Final Goods are those goods which are used either for final consumption or for investment.

Intermediate Goods refers to those goods and services which are used as a raw material for
further production or for resale in the same year.

These goods do not fulfill needs of mankind directly.

Investment :Addition made to the physical stock of capital during a period of time is called
investment. It is also called capital formation.

capital formation:- Change in the stock of capital is also called capital formation.

Depreciation :means fall in value of fixed capital goods due to normal wear and tear and
expected obsolescence. It is also called consumption of fixed capital.

Gross Investment :Total addition made to physical stock of capital during a period of time. It
includes depreciation. OR Net Investment + Depreciation

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 2

Net Investment :Net addition made to the real stock of capital during a period of time. It
excludes depreciation.

Net Investment = Gross investment – Depreciation.

Stocks :Variables whose magnitude is measured at a particular point of time are called stock
variables. Eg. National Wealth, Inventory etc.

Flows :Variables whose magnitude is measured over a period of time are called flow variable.
Eg. National income, change in stock etc.

Circular flow of income :It refers to continuous flow of goods and services and money income
among different sectors in the economy. It is circular in nature. It has neither any end and nor
any beginning point. It helps to know the functioning of the economy.

Leakage :It is the amount of money which is withdrawn from circular flow of income. For eg.
Taxes, Savings and Import. It reduces aggregate demand and the level of income.

Injection :It is the amount of money which is added to the circular flow of income. For e.g.
Govt. Exp., investment and exports. It increases the aggregate demand and the level of
income.

Economic Territory :Economic (or domestic) Territory is the geographical territory

administrated by a Government within which persons, goods, and capital circulate freely.

Scope of Economic Territory :

(a) Political frontiers including territorial waters and airspace.

(b) Embassies, consulates, military bases etc. located abroad.

(c) Ships and aircraft operated by the residents between two or more countries.

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 3

(d) Fishing vessels, oil and natural gas rigs operated by residents in the international waters.

Normal Resident of a country: is a person or an institution who normally resides in a country

and whose Centre of economic interest lies in that country.

Exceptions:- (a) Diplomats and officials of foreign embassy.

(b) Commercial travellers, tourists students etc.

(c) People working in international organizations like WHO, IMF, UNESCO etc. are treated as
normal residents of the country to which they belong.

The related aggregates of national income are:-

(i) Gross Domestic Product at Market price (GDPMP)
(ii) Gross Domestic Product at Factor Cost (GDPFC)
(iii) Net Domestic Product at Market Price (NDPMP)
(iv) Net Domestic Product at FC or (NDPFC)
(v) Net National Product at FC or National Income (NNPFC)
(vi) Gross National Product at FC (GNPFC)
(vii) Net National. Product at MP (NNPMP)
(viii) Gross National Product at MP (GNPMP)

(i) Gross Domestic Product at Market Price : It is the money value of all the
final goods and services produced within the domestic territory of a country
during an accounting year.
GDPMP = Net domestic product at FC (NDPFC) + Depreciation + Net
Indirect tax.

(ii) Gross Domestic Product at FC : It is the value of all final goods and services
produced within domestic territory of a country which does not include net
indirect tax.
GDPFC = GDPMP – Indirect tax + Subsidy

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 4

or GDPFC = GDPMP – NIT

(iii) Net Domestic Product at Market Price : It is the money value of all final
goods and services produced within domestic territory of a country during an
accounting year and does not include depreciation.
NDPMP = GDPMP – Depreciation

(iv) Net Domestic Product at FC : It is the value of all final goods and services
which does not include depreciation charges and net indirect tax. Thus it is
equal to the sum of all factor incomes (compensation of employees, rent,
interest, profit and mixed income of self employed) generated in the domestic
territory of the country.
NDPFC = GDPMP – Depreciation – Indirect tax + Subsidy

(v) Net National Product at FC (National Income) : It is the sum total of factor
incomes (compensation of employees + rent + interest + profit) earned by
normal residents of a country in an accounting year
or
NNPFC = NDPFC + Factor income earned by normal residents from abroad –
factor payments made to abroad.

(vi) Gross National Product at FC: It is the sum total of factor incomes earned
by normal residents of a country along with depreciation, during an accounting
year.
GNPFC = NNPFC + Depreciation OR

GNPFC = GDPFC + NFIA

(vii) Net National Product at MP : It is the sum total of factor incomes earned by
the normal residents of a country during an accounting year including net
indirect taxes.
NNPMP = NNPFC + Indirect tax – Subsidy

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 5

(viii) Gross National Product at MP : It is the sum total of factor incomes earned
by normal residents of a country during an accounting year including
depreciation and net indirect taxes.
GNPMP = NNPFC + Dep + NIT

Domestic Aggregates
Gross domestic Product at Market Price is the market value of all the final goods and
services produced by all producing units located in the domestic territory of a country during
an accounting year. It includes the value of depreciation or consumption of fixed capital.

Net Domestic Product at Market Price Depreciation (consumption of Fixed capital). It is the
market value of final goods and services produced within the domestic territory of the
country during a year exclusive of depreciation.

It is the factor income accruing to owners of factors of

production for suppling factor services with in domestic territory during an accounting year.

NATIONAL AGGREGATES
Gross National Product at Market Price ) is the market value of all the final goods and
services produced by normal residents (in the domestic territory and abroad) of a country
during an accounting year.

National Income :It is the sum total of all factors incomes which are earned by normal
residents of a country in the form of wages. rent, interest and profit during an accounting
year.

Methods of Estimation of National Income:

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 7

National Income at Current Prices : It is also called nominal National income. When goods and

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 8

services produced by normal residents within and outside of a country in a year valued at
current years prices i.e. current prices is called national income at current prices.

Y=QxP

Y = National income at current prices

Q = Quantity of goods and services produced during an accounting year

P = Prices of goods and services prevailing during the current accounting year

National Income at Constant Prices :It is also called as real national income. When goods and
services produced by normal residents within and outside of a country in a year valued at
constant price i.e. base year’s price is called National Income at Constant Prices.

Y’ = Q x P’

Y’ = National income at constant prices

Q = Quantity of goods and services produced during an accounting year

P’ = Prices of goods and services prevailing during the base year

Value of Output :Market value of all goods and services produced by an enterprise during an
accounting year.

Value added :It is the difference between value of output of a firm and value of inputs bought
from the other firms during a particular period of time.

Problem of Double Counting :Counting the value of a commodity more than once while
estimating national income is called double counting. It leads to overestimation of national
income. So, it is called problem of double counting.

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 9

Ways to solve the problem of double counting.

(a) By taking the value of only final goods.

(b) By value added method.

Components of Added by all 3 sectors

1. Value Added by Primary Sector(=VO-IC)

2. Value Added by Secondary Sector(=VO-IC)

3. Value Added by Tertiary Sectors(=VO-IC)

Hints

VO=Value of output

IC=Intermediate Consumption

VO=Price X quantity OR

Sales + Change in stock

(Change in stock = Closing Stock – Opening Stock)

Components of Final Expenditure:

1. Final Consumption Expenditure

a. Private Final Consumption Expenditure(C)

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 10

b. Government Final Consumption Expenditure(G)

2. Gross Domestic Capital Formation

a. Gross Domestic Fixed Capital Formation

i. Gross business Fixed Investment

ii. Gross Residential Construction Investment

iii. Gross public Investment

b. Change in Stock or Inventory Investment

3. Net Export(X-M)

a. Export(X)

b. Import(M)

Components of Domestic Income :

1. Compensation of Employees

a. Wages and salaries(Cash/or kinds)

b. Employers Contribution of Social security Schemes

2. Operating surplus

a. Rent

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 11

b. Interest

c. Profit

i. Corporate Tax

ii. Dividend

iii. Undistributed corporate profit

3. Mixed Income for self-Employed person

Net Factor Income from Abroad NFIA = It is difference between factor income
received/earned by normal residents of a country and factor income paid to non-residents of
the country.

Components of NFIA :

1. Net Compensation of Employees

2. Net Income from Property and entrepreneurship

3. Net Retained earning of resident companies abroad

Hints :NFIA : Net Factor Income Earned from Abroad.

NFIA = Factor Income Received from Abroad.

–Factor Income Paid to Abroad.

OR

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 12

NFIA = Net compensation of Employees

Net income from property and entrepreneurship.

+ Net retained earning of resident companies abroad.

Net National Disposable Income (NNDI): It is defined as net national product at Market price

plus net current transfer from rest of the world.

NNDI = NNPMP

+ Net current transfers from rest of the world.

=National income + net indirect tax + net current transfers from the rest of the world.

Gross National Disposable Income (Gross NDI + Net current Transfers from rest of
the world.

Net National Disposable Income (Net NDI) + Net current Transfers from rest of the
world.

OR

= Gross NDI – Depreciation.

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 13

Concept of Value Added of One Sector or One Firm
1. Value output = Sales + Change in Stock. or value of output = price × qty. sold + ΔS.

2. Gross value added at market price = Value of output – Intermediate consumption.

3. Net value added at market price = – Depreciation.

4. Net value added at factor cost = – Net indirect tax.

Note: By adding up of all the sectors, we get or Domestic Income.

Personal Disposable Income from National Income

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 14

Private Income :Private income is estimated income of factor and transfer incomes from all
sources to private sector within and outside the country.
Personal Income :It refers to income received by house hold from all sources. It includes
factor income and transfer income.
Personal Disposable Income :It is that part of Personal income which is available to the
households for disposal as they like.
GDP and Welfare :
In general GDP and Welfare are directly related with each other. A higher GDP implies that
more production of goods and services. It means more availability of goods and services. But
more goods and services may not necessarily indicate that the people were better off during
the year. In other words, a higher GDP may not necessarily mean higher welfare of the
people. There are two types of GDP:

Real GDP : When the goods and services are produced by all producing units in the domestic

CoolGyan.Org | A Portal For Complete Education | 15

territory of a country during an a/c. year and valued these at base year’s prices or constant
price, it is called real GDP or GDP at constant prices. It changes only by change in physical
output not by change price level. It is called a true indicator of economic development.

Nominal GDP : When the goods and services are produced by all producing units in the
domestic territory of a country during an a/c. year and valued these at current year’s prices
or current prices, it is called Nominal GDP or GDP at current prices. It is influenced by change
in both physical output and price level. It does not consider a true indicator of economic
development.

Price index plays the role of deflator deflating current price estimates into constant price
estimates. In this way it may be called GDP deflator.

Welfare mean material well being of the people. It depends on many economic factors like
national income, consumption level quality of goods etc and non-economic factor like
environmental pollution, law and order etc. the welfare which depends on economic factors is
called economic welfare and the welfare which depends on non-economic factor is called
non-economic welfare. The sum total of economic and non-economic welfare is called social
welfare. Conclusion thus GDP and welfare directly related with each other but this relation is
incomplete because of the following reasons.

Limitation of percapita real GDP/GDP as a indicator of

Economic welfare :
Non-monetary exchange
Externalities not taken into GDP but it affects welfare.
Distribution of GDP.
All product may not contribute equally to economic welfare.

Contribution of some products may be negative.
Inflation may give falls impression of growth of GDP.
