Particulars Rs.

crores
NDP at market prices 5,000
NNP at factor cost 4,200
Personal saving 1,075
Gross domestic investment 800
Corporate profits (profit before tax) 750
Transfer payments by the government 75
Subsidies 100
Net domestic investment 650
Corporate profit tax 350
Personal tax payments 350
Indirect taxes 950
Government budget deficit 300
Dividends 150
Calculate the
following: Net factor Income from Abroad
1. The value of GDP at factor cost
2. Personal Income in the economy is

GDPFC = NDPMP + Depreciation – Indirect Taxes + Subsidies


5000 + (800 – 650) – 950 + 100 = 4,300 MUC
Personal Income (PI) (i.e. income received by the households) = NI –
Corporate profit + Dividends + Transfer payments = 4,200 – 750 + 150 + 75
= 3,675 MUC
2.An economy produces only two commodities – bread and butter. During the year 2003, it doubled its
production to 1500 units of bread and 2500 units of butter, as compared to last year. The commodity
prices in the economy during the two years are given below: (Consider 2002 as the base year) a) What is
Nominal GDP for the year 2002? b) What is GDP deflator for the year 2003?
Nominal GDP for 2002 = (Quantity of bread in 2002 x Price of bread in 2002) + (Quantity of butter in
2002 x Price of butter in 2002) = (750 x 20) + (1250 x 15) = 15,000 + 18,750 = Rs.33,750.
Real GDP for 2003 = (Quantity of bread in 2003 x Price of bread in 2002) + Quantity of butter in 2003 x
Price of butter in 2002) = (1500 x 20) + (2500 x 15) = Rs.67500.
Nominal GDP for 2003 = (Quantity of bread in 2003 x Price of bread in 2003) + (Quantity of butter in
2003 x Price of butter in 2003) = (1500 x 25) + (2500 x 20) = 37,500 + 50,000 = Rs.87,500.
GDP deflator = Nominal GDP x 100
Real GDP
= (87500/67500) x 100 = 1.296 x 100 = 129.6 or 130.

3. Compute the Corporate profits from the following information extracted from National Income
Accounts of an economy: Investment by business sector = 100 Rs. Cr 1mark
