Unit 1: National Income and Related Aggregates
What is Macroeconomics?
Basic concepts in macroeconomics: consumption goods, capital goods,
final goods, intermediate goods; stocks and flows; gross investment and
depreciation.
Circular flow of income (two sector model); Methods of calculating National
Income
- Value Added or Product method, Expenditure method, Income
method. Aggregates related to National Income:
Gross National Product (GNP), Net National Product (NNP), Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) and Net Domestic Product (NDP) - at market
price, at factor cost; Real and Nominal GDP.GDP and Welfare

➢ What is Macroeconomics?
7
Prior to the “GREAT DEPRESSION” of 1930’s, Macroeconomics was
treated as an extension of Microeconomics. The nosediving of
economies of the world caused by ‘Great Depression’ led to the
emergence of Macroeconomics as a separate branch of economics.
Thus, Macroeconomics is that branch of Economics which studies
economic problems/issues at the level of the economy as a whole.
For e.g. issues relating to level of unemployment, rate of inflation,
total output etc. Macroeconomics also studies the manner in which
governments can tackle such problems to improve the welfare of all
residents of a country.

▪ Broadly, goods are classified in two ways:
Classification of Goods
Consumption Goods
Final Goods

single act of consumption.
Capital goods are fixed assets of the producers. These goods are used in the
process of production for several years and are of high value. Use of these goods
leads to depreciation. (Loss of value of fixed assets when these are repeatedly
used. For example: Plant and Machinery.)
“All capital goods are producer goods, but all producer goods are not capital
goods.”
Producer goods include:
i. Goods used as raw material, like wood used to make furniture,
ii. Fixed assets lie plant and machinery
Capital goods include only fixed assets of the producers. These are durable use
producer goods.
On the other hand, goods used as raw material are single use producer goods.
These are not repeatedly used in the process of production. Accordingly, all
producer goods are not capital goods, while all capital goods are producer goods. 11
Consumption Goods Capital Goods

▪ The same good may be final or intermediate good. The distinction
depends on the end use of the goods.
16
ii. Inventory Investment
At a point of time, producers hold the stock of:
- Finished goods (unsold goods)
- Semi Finished goods
- Raw material
This is called inventory stock. Change in inventory stock during the year is
called inventory stock inventory investment of producers.
Significance of Inventory Investment
▪ Ensures uninterrupted supply of inputs to the producers
▪ With enough stock of raw material, the producers can avoid uncertainties of the
market.
▪ Enables the producers to meet the potential (future) demand for their product.
17
Gross Investment Net Investment

18
Depreciation is the loss of value of fixed assets in use on account of:
i. Normal wear and tear
ii. Accidental damages, and
iii. Expected obsolescence
19
Depreciation reserve fund refers to that fund which the producers
keep for replacement investment.
ii. This leads to a fall in the level of output. The level of income
and employment will also fall. The economy will slip into a state
of economic slowdown.
21
From the macro point of view, economy is often divided into four sectors, viz:
1. Household Sector: It includes consumers of goods and services. Households
are also the owners of the factors of production.
2. Producer Sector: It includes all producing units (firms) in the economy. For
the production of goods and services, the firms hire/purchase factors of
production (land, labour, capital, and entrepreneurial skill) from the
households.
4. The External Sector, also called the REST OF THE WORLD Sector: It includes:
all such activities which are related to import and export of goods, and the
22
flow of capital between the domestic economy and rest of the world.
Each sector of the economy depends on the other in one way or the
other. It is called intersectoral dependence.

28
To measure NI in ‘Domestic & National’ terms the key term is
NET FACTOR INCOME FROM ABROAD(NFIA)
NFIA = Factor income earned by our residents in the rest of the world - Factor
income earned by non- residents in our domestic territory.
Domestic Income + NFIA = National Income.
National Income – NFIA = Domestic Income.
E.g. Find Domestic Income if NI = Rs.850 cr. & NFIA = Rs.30 cr.
Domestic Income = NI - NFIA = 850 – 30 = 820 cr.
E.g. Find National Income if Domestic Income = 700 cr.; Factor income earned by
our residents from ROW = 50 cr. & Factor income earned by non – residents in
our domestic territory = 20cr.
National Income = Domestic Income + NFIA
National Income = 700 + (50 – 20) = 700 + 30 = 730 cr. 29
To measure NI in ‘Gross & Net’ terms the key term is
DEPRECIATION
Gross = Net + Depreciation
Net = Gross – Depreciation
E.g. Find GDP, if NDP = Rs. 350cr. & Depreciation = Rs. 100cr.
GDP = NDP + Depreciation = 350 + 100 = Rs. 450 cr.
E.g. Calculate Market price if Factor cost=Rs. 35cr ; Indirect tax= Rs.10cr & Subsidy=Rs. 5cr.
E.g. Calculate Factor Cost if Market price=70cr; Indirect tax= 15cr. & Subsidy=20cr.
➢ Net Domestic Product: Gross market value of all final goods & services produced
within the domestic territory of a country during an accounting year excluding
Depreciation.
➢ Gross National Product: Gross market value of all final goods & services
produced by the normal residents of a country during an accounting year.
➢ Net National Product: Gross market value of all final goods & services produced
by the normal residents of a country during an accounting year excluding
Depreciation. 32
➢ Real and Nominal GDP

P= prices prevailing in the current year. 33
Estimation of Real and Nominal GDP(Hypothetical example)
Year Production Current year prices Base year prices Nominal GDP Real GDP
(Q) (P) (P*) (QxP) (QxP*)
NOTE: While Nominal GDP increases from 1000 to 1500 even when Q is constant at 100 units
due to rise in prices, the Real GDP remained the same. Real GDP is showing a rise from 1000 to
1500 only when production increases from 100 to 150. 34
➢ Welfare of people is measured in terms of the per capita availability of goods &
services.
Greater availability of goods & services per person implies greater level of economic
welfare. Hence Real GDP is considered as an index of the welfare of people.
➢ However there are certain limitations related to GDP as an index of social welfare:
❑Composition of GDP: Higher GDP will promote welfare only if increased output
comprises of goods of mass consumption & essential goods.
❑Distribution of GDP: It may happen that with rise in GDP, the inequalities in the
distribution of income may also rise which will widen the gap between the rich & poor.
GDP does not take into account changes in inequalities in the distribution of income.
❑Non-monetary exchanges: Due to the non-availability of data, many activities which
influence the economic welfare such as services of housewives in the economy, are
not evaluated in monetary terms & hence not included in GDP.
❑Externalities: These refer to positive/negative impacts of an activity caused by an
individual/firm, for which they are not paid/penalised. The positive externalities
increase the welfare while the negative externalities reduce the welfare. GDP does not
take into account such externalities.
❑Rise in prices: If increase in GDP is due to increase in prices and not due to increase
35
in physical output, then it will not be a reliable index of economic welfare.
➢ Three aspects of National Income:
1) Production aspect
2) Income or distribution aspect
3) Expenditure aspect

Product method or value-added method
37
Estimating Value Added
Item produced Value of Output Intermediate goods Value Added
Wheat 600 200 400
Flour Mill 800 600 200
Baker 1000 800 200
Shop- keeper 1200 1000 200
Total 3600 2600 1000
39
Precautions regarding Product- method or
Value –added method
➢ Sale and purchase of second-hand goods is notincluded in value- added. Because,
value of second-hand goods is already accounted for during the year of production.
➢ Own account production of goods is taken into account. They are simply not sold
owing to theirneed by producers themselves.
➢ Imputed rent of owner-occupied houses is also taken into account, because all houses
have rental value.
V.A by Primary Sector = V.O of Pri. Sec - I.C by Pri. Sec. = 800 - 400 = 400
V.A by Secondary Sector = V.O of Sec. Sector - I.C by Sec. Sec. = 200 - 100 = 100
V.A by Tertiary Sector = V.O of Ter. Sector - I.C by Ter. Sector = 300 - 50 = 250
Hence G.V.A/G.D.P at MP = V.A by Pri. Sec + V.A by Sec. Sec. + V.A by Ter. Sec.
= 400 + 100 + 250 = 750
(b)
G.D.P at MP -- Depreciation = N.D.P at MP = 750 -- 80 = 670
payments made in the form of wages, rent, interest and profit to factors of
production for their services.
What are Factor-Incomes? How are they different from Transfer incomes?
➢ COMPENSATION OF EMPLOYEES
▪ It includes:-
• wages and salaries in cash
• payment in kind
• employers’ contribution to social-security scheme
• pension on retirement
➢ OPERATING SURPLUS:
▪It includes:-
• income from property and entrepreneurship. It is earned in both private
and Govt. sector. It includes:
• Rent
• Interest
• Profit (Dividend + corporation tax + savingof enterprise or undistributed profits) 47
Classification of Factor-Incomes
➢ MIXED INCOME:
• Mixed- Income refers to the income of SELF- EMPLOYED persons using their
labour, land, capital and entrepreneurship to produce goods and services.
• These incomes are mixed in termsof wages, rent, interest and profit. That is
why, itis called mixed income.
➢ Sale-proceeds of shares and bonds are not included in N.I. Because such
transactions are not related to flow ofgoods and services.
➢ Windfall gains, like lotteries and capital-gains not to be included as there is
no value addition corresponding to windfall gains.
➢ Imputed rent of owner-occupied houses is included in N.I.
➢ Goods for self-consumption should be included.
49
Precautions while estimating Factor-Incomes
➢ Indirect taxes like sales-tax, excise-duty, tend to increase M.P of goods and
services. These are includedin estimation of N.I. at M.P but are NOT to be
included while estimating N.I. at F.C
➢ Gift tax, wealth tax, taxes on windfall gains are paid not out of current
income but out of past savings of tax-payer. These are not to be included
in estimation of N.I

EXPENDITURE METHOD
What is Final-Expenditure?
➢ If an enterprise uses goods purchased from other enterprises for re-sale or as raw-
material, the expenditure on such goods will be inter-mediate expenditure.
➢ On the other-hand, if goods and servicesare produced for final consumption, the
expenditure on them is final expenditure. 55
Classification of Final - expenditure
➢ NET EXPORTS (X-M): It refers to difference between exports and imports during
a year. 56

MONEY
➢ DEFINITION
❖ Money is a matter of functions four, a Medium, a Measure, a Standard, a Store.
❖ Money is what Money does. It is generally defined as an instrument which is
commonly used as a MEDIUM OF EXCHANGE.
❖ The definition of Money conveys the basic functions of Money. These are:
✓ Money Acts as a Medium Of Exchange: Money acts as a medium for the sale &
purchase of goods & services. This has removed the major difficulty of double
coincidence of wants.
✓ Money serves as a Store of Value: Since Money is easy & economical to store and it’s
value remains relatively constant, people save i.t.o Money & hence it acts as a store
of value.
✓ Money as a Measure of Value : Money serves as a measure of value in terms of unit of
account. i.e market price of goods & services is measured i.t.o Money.
✓ Money serves as a Standard for Deffered Payments: Money acts as an instrument of
business contracts where future payments are involved.
