(x) Net factor income from abroad                                                         (-) 10
 
Solution: -
Private income = (i) - (iv + vii) + (iv + vi)
                      = 3000 - (150 + 40) + (60 + 50)
                      = 2920 Crores.
Personal income = 2920 - (ii) - (iii)
                        = 2920-30-80
                        = Rs 2810 Crores.
Personal Disposable Income = 2810- (ix)
                                         = 2810-100
                                         = Rs 2710 Crores.
National Disposable Income = (i) + (vi) + (viii)
                                         = 3000 + 50 + 250
                                         =Rs 3300 Crores.

(xiii) Mixed income                                                                         40
 
Solution: -
Income method
NI= (ix) + (xii) + (viii) + (xiii) – (iii)
   = 50 +10 + 20 + 40 -10
   =Rs 110 Crores.
Expenditure method
NI = (ii) + (vi) + (vii) + (xi) + (x) - (iv) + (i) + (iii)
    =100 + 20 + 30 + (-) 5 + (-) 5 – 25 + 5 +10
    =Rs 110 Crores.

(x) Purchases by Firm B from Firm A                                           60
 
Solution: -
Value Added by Firm A = (iv) + [(vii) – (vi)] – (i) – (iii)
                                 = 120 + [30 – 45] – 40 – 60
                                 = Rs 5 Lakhs.
Value Added by Firm B = (ii) + [(ix) – (viii)] - (x)
                                 = 100 + [30 – 40] - 60

(vi) Current transfer from government administrative departments              30
(vii) National Debt Interest                                                                       10
(viii) Savings of non departmental government enterprises                          5
(ix) Current transfers from rest of the world                                              15
 
Solution: -
Private Income = (i) - (v) – (viii) + (vii) + (vi) + (ix)
                      = 1300 – 35 – 5 +10 + 30 + 15
                      = Rs. 1315 crores.
Personal Income = Private Income – (ii) – (iv)
                         = 1315 -15 -25
                         = Rs 1275 crores.
Personal Disposable Income = Personal Income – (iii)
                                          = 1275 – 40
                                          = Rs 1235 Crores.
 
Q.5. Estimate (i) Personal Disposable Income, (ii) Private Income and (iii) National Income from the following data:
                                                                                                                   (Rs. in Crores)

(viii) Net indirect tax                                                                                             195
(ix) Direct tax paid by the households                                                                     25
 
Solution: -
Personal Disposable Income = Personal income - Direct tax
                                         = 1225 - 25
                                         = 1200 Crores
Private Income = Personal income + Saving of private corporate sector + Corporate tax
                       = 1225 +12 + 23
                        = 1260 Crores
National Income = Private Income – (iv) – (v) + (vi) + (vii)
                        = 1260 – 30 - 25 + 25 + 20
                        = 1260 Crores
 
Q.6. Estimate the following with the help of given data:
(i) GDPMP ,

(vi) Consumption of fixed capital                                                                      500
(vii) Rent                                                                                                       700
(viii) Wages and salaries                                                                                 3500
(ix) Interest payment                                                                                     1000
(x) Dividend                                                                                                  1500
(xi) Corporate gain tax                                                                                   300
(xii) Undistributed profit                                                                                 200
 
Solution: -
GDPMP = Sales + Increase in the stock - Purchase of raw materials - Purchase of fuel and power.
           = 10,000 + 1000 -1650 -850
           = 11,000 -2500
           = 8500 Crores.
Net Value Added at factor cost = Sales + Increase in the stock - Purchase of raw materials –
Purchase of fuel and power - Consumption of fixed capital - Net indirect tax.
= 10,000 + 1000 - 1650 - 850 - 500 – 800
= 11,000 – 3800
= 7200 Crores.
Income generated = Rent + Wages and salaries + Interest + Dividend + Corporate gain tax + Undistributed profit.
                          = 700 + 3500 + 1000 + 1500 + 300 + 200
                          = 7200 Crores.

Q.1 Answer the following:

(a) Giving valid reasons, state how the services of a ‘School Teacher’ will be undertaken in estimation of National Income.

(b) Gross investment is always greater than net investment.” Defend or refute the given statement with valid argument.

(c) Net factor income from abroad can never be negative.” Defend or refute the given statement with valid argument.

(d) Discuss briefly how the money received from the sale of a second-hand car will be undertaken in estimation of National Income.

Ans.

(a) The services of a school teacher will be included in the national income of the country as it contributes to the current flow of services in the economy.

(b) The given statement is refuted. Gross investment includes addition to capital stock which also includes replacement for the normal wear and tear (depreciation). Whereas, addition to capital stock in an economy is measured by net investment. So, in an accounting sense, if the value of depreciation becomes zero, only then gross investment will be
equal to net investment.

(c) The given statement is refuted. Net factor income from abroad is the difference between factor income earned from rest of the world and factor income paid to rest of the world. If the value of factor income paid to rest of the world is greater than the factor income earned from rest of the world, the resulting value (net factor income from abroad) can be negative.

(d) The money received from the sale of a second hand car will not be included in the national income of the country as it does not contribute to the current flow of goods in the economy.

Q.2 Final goods are those goods which are consumed only by the households.” Defend or refute the given statement with a valid argument.

Ans. The given statement is not correct and is thus refuted. Final goods are those goods which are purchased/consumed either by households or by the producers for investment purpose, i.e., these are the goods which have crossed the production boundary.

Q.3 State with valid reason, which of the following statement is true or false:

(a) Gross Value Added at market price and Gross Domestic Product at market price are one and the same thing.

(b) Intermediate goods are always durable in nature.

Ans.

(a) The given statement is false as Gross Domestic Product is the result of sum of Gross Value Added by all the producing units/firms in an economy, during an accounting year.

(b) The given statement is false as intermediate goods are generally non-durable in nature. They are the goods used as raw material and they lose their identity in the production process for the creation of a new commodity, during an accounting year.

Q.4 (a) ‘Domestic/household services performed by a woman may not be considered as an economic activity’. Defend or refute the given statement with valid reason.

(b) ‘Compensation to the victims of a cyclone is an example of a welfare measure taken by the government’. State with valid reason, should it be included/not included in the estimation of national income of India. 

Ans.

(a) The given statement is defended; as it is difficult to measure the monetary value of the services performed by a woman (homemaker). Therefore, these activities may not be considered as an economic activity.

(b) Compensation given to the victims of a cyclone is an example of a social welfare measure taken by the government. However, it is not included in estimation of national income as it is a transfer payment which does not lead to corresponding flow of goods and services.


Q.5 “India’s GDP is expected to expand 7.5% in 2019-20: World Bank” — The Economic Times. Does the given statement mean that welfare of people of India increase at the same rate? Comment with reason. 

Ans. Generally it is considered that an increase in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of any economy (India in this case) ensures increase in welfare of the people of the country. However, this may not always be correct. GDP is not the best indicator of the economic welfare of a country. Some of the prime reasons for the same are:

(a) unequal distribution and composition of GDP,

(b) non-monetary transactions in the economy which are not accounted for in GDP, and

(c) occurrence of externalities in the economy (both positive and negative).

Q.6 ‘Real Gross Domestic Product is a better indicator of economic growth than Nominal Gross Domestic Product’.
Do you agree with the given statement? Support your answer with a suitable numerical example.

Ans.The given statement is correct. Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a better indicator of economic growth than Nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP) as it is not affected by changes in general price level.(Give numerical example on Page No. 5)

Q.7 ‘Circular flow of income in a two sector economy is based on the axiom that one’s expenditure is other’s income’. Do you agree with the given statement? Support your answer with valid reasons.

Ans. Yes, the given statement is correct. In a two sector economy, the firms produce goods and services and make factors payments to the households. The factor income earned by the households will be used to buy the goods and services which would be equal to income of firms. The aggregate consumption expenditure by the households in the economy is equal to the aggregate expenditure on goods and services produced by the firms in the economy (Income of the producers).

Q.8 “Management of a water polluting oil refinery says that it (oil refinery) ensures welfare through its contribution to Gross Domestic product.” Defend or refute the argument of management with respect to GDP as a welfare measure of the economy.

Ans. No, the given statement is not true. The value added by oil refinery to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) may also be polluting the nearby source of water. Such harmful effects that the refinery is causing to people and marine life is not penalized for the same. Thus, these negative externalities are not ensuring the welfare of the economy through Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

Q.9 'Subsides to the producers, should be treated as transfer payments.' Defend or refute the given statement with valid reason.

Ans. The given statement is defended, as subsidy is a transfer payment. Subsidy is the financial assistance provided by the government to producers to fulfill its social welfare objectives.
Government does not get anything in consideration for the same. It does not contribute to the current flow of goods and services and hence do not contribute to any value addition.

Q.10 State giving reasons whether the following statements are True or False:

(a) Capital goods are used up to produce other goods.

(b) Machine purchased is always a final good.

Ans.

(a) False: Capital goods like machines make production of other goods feasible, but they themselves don’t get transformed in the production process, i.e., they are
not used up to produce other goods.

(b) False: Whether ‘machine’ is a final good or not depends on how it is being used.

• If the machine is bought by a household, then it is a final good because it is used for final consumption.

• If the machine is bought by a firm for its own use, then also it is a final good because it is used for investment.

• If the machine is bought by a firm for re-sale, then it is an intermediate good.

Q.11 Suppose a ban is imposed on consumption of tobacco. Examine its likely effects on gross domestic product and welfare. 

Ans. Ban on consumption of tobacco will bring down production of tobacco. Since it is counted in GDP, GDP will fall. The ban will improve the health in general. It will thus increase welfare.

Q.12 Government incurs expenditure to popularise yoga among the masses. Analyse its impact on gross domestic product and welfare of the people. 

Ans. Government expenditure on popularising yoga raises GDP because it is government’s final consumption expenditure. It also raises welfare of the people because yogic exercises improve health and thus, raise efficiency of the people.

Q.13 Sale of petrol and diesel cars is rising particularly in big cities. Analyse its impact on gross domestic product and welfare.

Ans.Sale of cars raises GDP, because sales are of final products. Cars provide convenience in transportation but at the same time, it causes traffic jams, air pollution and noise
pollution, which reduces the welfare of the people. Pollution has bad effects on the health of the people.

Q.14 “Higher Gross Domestic Product (GDP) means greater per capita availability of goods in the economy.” Do you agree with the given statement? Give valid reasons in support of your answer. 
Ans. “Higher Gross Domestic Product (GDP) means greater per capita availability of goods in the economy.” This statement is not true.

(i) If the rate of population growth is more than the rate of growth of GDP, the per capita availability of goods and services will fall.

(ii) GDP doesn’t account for changes in inequalities in distribution of Income. If the rising GDP is concentrated in a few hands, per capita availability of goods in the economy might not increase.

Q.15 If in a locality, a new park is developed by the municipal corporation, it will have externalities, both positive and negative. State on example each of both types of externalities with reason.

Ans. The park in neighbourhood can be a source of positive externality as it helps in reducing pollution and thereby improving health and efficiency.
The park in neighbourhood can be a source of negative externality if it is used by anti-social elements. This can increase crime and lead to insecurity.

Q.16 Which of the following items will be included/not included while estimating Gross Domestic Product? Give valid reasons in support of your answer. 

(a) Wages received by an Indian working in the British Embassy in India.

(b) Financial aids received from abroad after 'Fani cyclone'.

(c) Purchase of second hand machinery from abroad.\

Ans.

(a) Wages received by an Indian working in British embassy in India is not a part of economic territory of India, as British Embassy is a part of Economic territory of Britain.

(b) Financial aid is a transfer income as no factor service is provided in return. Hence, it is not included while estimating the value of GDP.

(c) Purchase of second hand machinery from abroad is not included as the value of imports are deducted while estimation GDP of a country.

(ix) Closing stock of Firm B                                                      30
(x) Purchases by Firm B from Firm A                                        60
 
Solution: -
 
Value Added by Firm A = (iv) + [(vii) – (vi)] – (i) – (iii)
                                 = 120 + [30 – 45] – 40 – 60
                                  = Rs 5 Lakhs.
 
Value Added by Firm B = (ii) + [(ix) – (viii)] - (x)
                                 = 100 + [30 – 40] - 60
                                 = Rs 30 Lakhs.

Personal Disposable Income = Personal income - Direct tax
                                         = 1225 - 25
                                         = 1200 Crores

 Private Income = Personal income + Saving of private corporate sector + Corporate tax

                      = 1225 +12 + 23
                      = 1260 Crores

 National Income = Private Income – (iv) – (v) + (vi) + (vii)

                                                           = 1260 – 30 - 25 + 25 + 20
                                                           = 1260 Crores
 
Q.6. Estimate the following with the help of given data:
 
(i) GDPMP ,
(ii) Net Value Added at factor cost; and (iii) prove that it is equal to the income generated.
(Rs. in Crores)
(i) Increase in the stock of unsold goods                                     1000
(ii) Sales                                                                                  10,000
(iii) Net indirect tax                                                                    800
(iv) Purchase of raw materials from other firms                            1650
(v) Purchase of fuel and power                                                    850
(vi) Consumption of fixed capital                                                 500
(vii) Rent                                                                                  700
(viii) Wages and salaries                                                            3500
(ix) Interest payment                                                                1000
(x) Dividend                                                                             1500
(xi) Corporate gain tax                                                               300
(xii) Undistributed profit                                                             200
 
Solution: -
GDPMP = Sales + Increase in the stock - Purchase of raw materials - Purchase of fuel and power.
           = 10,000 + 1000 -1650 -850
           = 11,000 -2500
           = 8500 Crores.
 
Net Value Added at factor cost = Sales + Increase in the stock - Purchase of raw materials – Purchase of fuel and power - Consumption of fixed capital - Net indirect tax.
                                            = 10,000 + 1000 - 1650 - 850 - 500 – 800
                                            = 11,000 – 3800
                                            = 7200 Crores.
 
Income generated = Rent + Wages and salaries + Interest + Dividend + Corporate gain tax +  Undistributed profit.
                           = 700 + 3500 + 1000 + 1500 + 300 + 200
                           = 7200 Crores.
Hence it is proved that Net Value Added at factor cost = Income Generated
