   Factor Income is the progression of income that is obtained from the general factors of products utilized in the creation of
   merchandise or service so as to make a monetary benefit. Factor income on the utilization of land is called rent, income produced
     from work is called wages, and income created from capital is called benefit. The factor income of every single typical occupant
     of a nation is alluded to as the National income, while factor salary and current exchanges together are alluded to as private
     income.
     Factor income is used to analyze macroeconomic situations and to find out the difference between the gross domestic product and
     gross domestic income which is also the difference between the total value of the goods and services produced in a country and
     the net income of the citizens of the country. This helps the government understand the magnitude of income of the country's
     citizens and the citizens living abroad.
     Transfer payment (also called a government transfer or simply transfer) is a redistribution of wealth by means of the
     government making a payment, without goods or services being received in return. These payments are considered to be non-

         administrative departments + Net factor income from abroad ( or - Net factor income to abroad) + Current transfers from rest
         of the world ( or - Current transfer to rest of world)

   iii. No, national income does not include negative externalities though they reduce welfare of people.
17. a. Net value added at market prices
       = (Domestic sales + Exports + Increase in stocks)
       - (Purchase of raw materials and other inputs from the domestic market
        + Imports of raw materials) - Depreciation
        = (1800 + 200 + 200) - (600 + 100) - 75 = ₹ 1425 lakh
        Net value added at market price = Rs.1425 lakh
     b. Net value added at factor cost
        = Net value added at market prices - Indirect taxes
       = 1425 - 50 = ₹ 1375 lakh
       Factor Incomes
       = Salaries and wages + Interest + Rent + Dividends + Undistributed profits + Corporate tax
       = 600 + 450 + 75 + 150 + 80 + 20 = ₹ 1375 lakh
       factor income = Rs.1375 lakh
       Hence, net value added at factor cost is equal to the sum of factor incomes which is correct.
                                                                                                                                        3/3
