12Th Class ECONOMICS CHANAKYA GROUP OF ECONOMICS SESSION 2020-21 12th class ECONOMICS Macro Economics: Part-5 Market price & Factor cost Aggregates related to national Income. Domestic product at Market price and factor cost 1.Gross domestic product at Market Price GDP at Market price is the market value of final goods and services produced within the domestic territory of a country during an accounting year inclusive of depreciation. (GDPmp include Indirect taxes and deduct subsidies) 2.Gross domestic product at factor cost. GDP at factor cost is the sum total of factor cost incurred on the production of final goods and services within the domestic territory of a country during an accounting year inclusive of depreciation. (GDPfc=Compensation of employee+ Rent+ Interest+profit.) (GDPfc include subsidies and deduct Indirect taxes ) Formulas of GDPmp and GDPfc 1. GDP at Market price = GDPfc + indirect taxes- subsidy. 1. GDP at Factor cost = GDPmp - indirect taxes+ subsidy. Net indirect taxes= indirect taxes - subsidies 1.Gross National Product: Gross National Product (GNP) is defined as the total market value of all final goods and services produced in a country during a specific period of time, usually one year. It measures the output generated by a country’s organizations located domestically or abroad. 2.Gross Domestic Product: Gross Domestic Product (GDP) refers to the market value of final goods and services produced in a country in a given time period. It includes income earned by foreign players locally minus income earned by national players in abroad. The GNP can be calculated with the help of the following formula: GNP = GDP +Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA) From the above mentioned formula, we can calculate GDP as follows: GDP = GNP- NFIA 3.NDPmp refers to the market value of final goods and services produced by all the production units in the domestic territory of a country during a given time period. It excludes depreciation and includes indirect taxes. It is equal to the net value added at market price. NDPmp can be calculated as follows: NDPmp = GDPmp – depreciation 4.NDPfc refers to the market value of final goods and services produced by all the production units in the domestic territory of a country during a given time period excluding depreciation and net indirect taxes. NDPfc is also known as Net Domestic Income (NDI). It can be calculated as follows: NDPfc = GDPmp – depreciation – Net Indirect taxes Or NDPfc = NDPmp – Net Indirect Taxes = NDPmp – Indirect Taxes + Subsidies 5.Net National Product: Net National Product (NNP) is equal to GNP minus depreciation. It indicates the net output available for the consumption by society where society includes consumers, producers and government. NNP is the actual measure of the national income. It can be calculated as follows: NNPmp = NDPmp + NFIA NNPfc is defined as the measure of the factor earnings of the residents of a country, both from economic territory and abroad. Therefore, NNPfc is equal to national income of country. It can be calculated as follows: NNPfc = NDPfc + NFIA Aggregates related to national income 1.Domestic product GDPmp NDPmp GDPfc NDPfc GDPMP- GDPFC- Dep NDPMP+Dep+indi GDPMP- Dep. indirect taxes + OR rect taxes – Subsidy.(- net OR GDPMP- Subsidy.

All the types of transfer incomes are kept out of the national income estimates. For recipients of transfer payment, it is called transfer income, while for payers; it is termed as transfer expenditures. There are two types of transfers namely current and capital transfers. The following are some of the examples of current transfers: a. Tax payments to the government b. Donations to non-profit institutions c. Scholarship to students d. Old age pensions e. Unemployment allowances f. Gifts and lottery prizes g. Aid provided by one country to another country in case of emergencies h. Transfer of money by resident of one country to relatives residing in other country On the other hand, capital transfers are the transfers made out of the wealth or capital of the payer and added to the wealth or capital of the recipient. The example of capital transfers are as follows: a. Capital grants from government to organizations b. Lump-sum payments to households in case of natural disasters c. Payment of taxes on capital and wealth CHANAKYA GROUP OF ECONOMICS SESSION 2020-21 12th class ECONOMICS Macro Economics: Part-6 Real GDP & Nominal GDP Methods of calculating National income. Concept of GDP 1.Nominal 3.GDP 2.Real GDP GDP deflator 1. Nominal GDP The Nominal GDP is the total value of all of the final goods and services that an economy produces during a given year, measured on the basis of current prices. Nominal GDP is measured on the basis of current price . Nominal values of GDP from different time periods can differ due to changes in quantities of goods and services and/or changes in general price levels nominal GDP would also change even though output remained constant. Price index Nominal GDP = Real GDP × 100 Nominal GDP = Q × P Q- quantity of final goods and services produced during an accounting year. P- prices prevailing during the accounting s year. Price index- it is difference between the price of two different periods. If there is no inflation or deflation, nominal GDP will be the same as real GDP. 2.Real GDP The real GDP is the total value of all of the final goods and services that an economy produces during a given year, measured on the base year prices. It is calculated using the prices of a selected base year. GDP is calculated on the basis of fixed prices in some year. To find out the real GDP a base year is chosen when the general prices level is normal, ie it is neither to high nor too low. If prices change from one period to the next but actual output does not, real GDP would be remain the same. Real GDP reflects changes in real production. GDP at current prices Real GDP = × 100 Price index Real GDP = Q*P Price index- it is difference between the price of two different periods. Q- quantity of final goods and services produced during an accounting year. P- prices prevailing during the base year. Real GDP = Q*P Real GDP increases only when Q increases . Because prices remain constant. So when real GDP increases there is an increases in the flow of goods and services, Other things remaining constant. Real GDP increases- output or goods and services increases- quality of life improve. Real GDP example In an economy total production of notebooks is 100 and current price of each notebook is 12 rupees in 2019-20, and base year price is 10rs Real GDP = Q*P Real GDP = 100 × 10 = 1000 Nominal GDP example In an economy total production of notebooks is 100 and current price of each notebook is 12 rupees in 2019-20 and base year price is 10rs Nominal GDP = Q*P Nominal GDP = 100 × 12 = 1200 3.GDP deflator GDP deflator is an index of price changes of goods and services included in GDP. It is a price index which is calculated by diving the nominal GDP in a given year by the real GDP for the same year and multiplying by 100. Nominal (current price) GDP GDP Deflator = × 100 Real( constant price) GDP 1.If real GDP is 50 , and Price index is 400 , then Nominal GDP? 2.If Nominal GDP is and Price index is 400 , then Real GDP? 3.If Nominal GDP is and Real GDP is then Price index ? GDP and Welfare There is positive relation between GDP of a country and Welfare of people. Real GDP is considered as an index of welfare of the people. Because it increase in real GDP means increase in level of output in the economy. Welfare of the people measured in terms of the availability of goods and services per person. GDP and Welfare 1.Higher GDP Growth 6.Increase in investment. 2.Rise in level of Employment. 5.Rise in inducement 3.Rise in income of to invest. people 4.Rise in aggregare demand. Limitation of GDP and Welfare Increase in GDP always not lead to welfare of people, some time high GDP lead to reduction in welfare of the people. these are- 1. Unequal distribution of income – benefit of growth goes to richer section of the society. 2. Composition of GDP -more production of capital goods.(luxury goods) 3. Non-monetary transactions- (barter system) these goods are not recorded in GDP. 4. Externalities- good and bad impact of economic activities. If GDP increases by pollution related production activities then welfare will be reduced. home-work Q1. if real GDP is 520 and Price index.(base = 100) is 125 , calculat Nominal GDP. Q2. If the real GDP is 300 and nominal GDP is 330 , calculate price index.(base = 100) Q3. if nominal GDP is 1200 and price index.(base = 100) is 120, calculate real GDP.

  • Capital Depreciation and Labor Shares Around the World: Measurement and Implications∗
    Capital Depreciation and Labor Shares Around the World: Measurement and Implications∗ Loukas Karabarbounis Brent Neiman University of Chicago and NBER University of Chicago and NBER October 2014 Abstract The labor share is typically measured as compensation to labor relative to gross value added (\gross labor share"), in part because gross value added is more directly measured than net value added. Labor compensation relative to net value added (\net labor share") may be more important in some settings, however, because depreciation is not consumed. We document that both gross and net labor shares have declined around the world over the past four decades. Some countries, including the United States, experienced increases in the value of depreciation and therefore their net labor share declined by less than their gross labor share. The average economy, however, experienced a similarly sized decline in both measures. Using a simple model, we analyze the relationship between technology, depreciation, factor shares, and inequal- ity. Consistent with our empirical findings, we demonstrate that gross and net labor shares move together in response to changes in the price of investment goods but not necessarily in response to other shocks. We illustrate that both labor share measures can be jointly informative about the structure of production, realization of shocks, and transitional dynamics of consumption inequality.

  • The Concepts and Measurement of Output and Input
    This PDF is a selection from an out-of-print volume from the National Bureau of Economic Research Volume Title: Productivity Trends in the United States Volume Author/Editor: John W. Kendrick, assisted by Maude R. Pech Volume Publisher: Princeton University Press Volume ISBN: 0-87014-070-1 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/kend61-1 Publication Date: 1961 Chapter Title: The Concepts and Measurement of Output and Input Chapter Author: John W. Kendrick Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c2237 Chapter pages in book: (p. 20 - 56) CHAPTER 2 The Concepts and Measurement of Output and Input IN THE first chapter we saw that there are various productivity concepts and that the movements of the corresponding measures differ accordingly. Given the general definition of a particular productivity measure, its movement will again be affected by the precise definitions given to the output and input components of the productivity ratios. This forms the subject matter of the first part of the present chapter. With respect to national output—the real value of the final goods and services produced in the nation's economy—the scope and movement of the measure will depend on the precise operational meaning given to such key words of the definition as "final," "nation," and "economy." These questions have been debated at length by national income experts; but we should like to indicate the significance for productivity analysis of the major issues that are resolved somewhat differently in the several important sets of available real product estimates. Industry output measures are likewise conditioned by industry classifications and output definitions, particularly as regards the distinction between gross and net output.

  • The Concept and Measurement of Savings: the United States and Other Industrialized Countries
    The Concept and Measurement of Savings: The United States and Other industrialized Countries Derek W. Blades and Peter H. Sturm* Introduction 1. It has long been recognized that conventionally measured saving ra- tios differ widely between countries, and that among the 24 member coun- tries of the OECD the U.S. economy is the one with the lowest national sav- ing ratio. It is also true--though probably less well publicized-- that any’ definition of saving is to some extent arbitrary, and that given a specific definition, institutional differences between countries may result in differ- ences in saving ratios between economies which otherwise display identical characteristics and behavior. The present paper analyzes the question of how important institutional differences are in explaining observed differ- ences in official saving ratios between the United States and other industri- alized countries, and how sensitive this difference is to alternative defini- tions of saving and income. This analysis will be carried out for both the aggregate national saving ratio and the household saving ratio. A separate treatment of the household sector seems justified, given the dominating share this sector contributes to total national savings in most countries, and the focus on household behavior in theoretical discussions of savings determinants. 2. The various possible modifications of the official definition of sav- ings discussed here result in a large number of alternative savings concepts. Which of these alternatives is the "correct" one will of course depend on the question analyzed. Special attention will be given in this paper to the savings concept most relevant for the analysis of economic growth.

Lawrence NBER Working Paper No. 21296 June 2015 JEL No. D3,D33 ABSTRACT As shown in the 1930s by Hicks and Robinson the elasticity of substitution (σ) is a key parameter that captures whether capital and labor are gross complements or substitutes. Establishing the magnitude of σ is vital, not only for explaining changes in the distribution of income between factors but also for undertaking policy measures to influence it. Several papers have explained the recent decline in labor’s share in income by claiming that σ is greater than one and that there has been capital deepening.

NEER Working Paper #4864 September1994 EFFECTIVE TAX RATES IN MACROECONOMKS:CROSS-COUNTRY ESTIMATESOF TAX RATES ON FACTOR INCOMES AND CONSUMPTION ABSTRACT This paper proposes a method for computing tax rates using national accounts and revenue statistics. Using this method we construct time-series of tax rates for large industrial countries. The method identifies the revenue raised by different taxes at the general government level and defines aggregate measures of the corresponding tax bases. This method yields estimates of effective tax rates on factor incomes and consumption consistent with the tax distortions faced by a representative agent in a general equilibrium framework.

  • Std/Na(97)26 1 Use of Productivity Estimates In
    STD/NA(97)26 USE OF PRODUCTIVITY ESTIMATES IN THE UNITED KINGDOM OUTPUT MEASURE OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT Summary The United Kingdom compiles figures for quarterly output-based gross domestic product at constant prices. This paper outlines the construction of the series and describes the use of productivity estimates in those service industries where employment is used as a proxy for output. Introduction The United Kingdom compiles figures for quarterly output-based gross domestic product at constant prices. Conceptually, net output at constant prices should be calculated by double deflation, but this method is data intensive and not generally used in the UK. Instead, net output at constant prices is calculated as a base-weighted index, where the weights are net output by industry, derived from the 1990 input-output tables, and the indices are in general indicators of gross output, which are assumed to be reasonable proxies for net output over the short term. These procedures are in line with those discussed in SNA93 (16.68-70), where it is suggested that over the short run the potential bias involved in using single indicators may be negligible compared with the potential errors in double deflation estimates. Where data are not available for value added at current prices, it is recommended that an acceptable second best solution is given by base year value added, extrapolated either by deflating gross output at current prices by an appropriate price index or directly from quantity data. Where such indicators are not available, indicators of input, such as employment, are a third best procedure, but only appropriate for short-run estimates.

  • The History of the United States National Income and Product Accounts: the Development of an Analytical Tool*
    THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL INCOME AND PRODUCT ACCOUNTS: THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN ANALYTICAL TOOL* CAROLS. CARSON Bureau of Economic Analysis, US.Department of Commerce The purpose of this article is to record the history of the national income and product accounts of the United States, concentrating on the period 1932-47. During that period the single national income aggregate evolved into a set of accounts and the estimates emerged as an important analytical tool. Interviews with participants in these developments were extensively utilized to trace the events, people, ideas, and other factors which shaped the history of the accounts. The generally recognized need for economic information during the Great Depression stimulated the request that the Department of Commerce undertake what became the first official continuing series on national income in the United States. These estimates were prepared with the cooperation of the National Bureau of Economic Research and were published in 1934. By the late 1930's, estimates were extended to include income by state and a monthly series. World War I1 was the impetus for the development of product, or expenditure, estimates. By the mid-19401s,the estimates had evolved into a set of income and product accounts-a consolidated production account, sector income and outlay accounts, and a consolidated saving-investment accountdesigned to provide a bird's-eye-view of the economy. During this period uses of the accounts widened; analysis of wartime production goals and anti-inflation policy are noteworthy examples. The National Income, 1947Edition was the culmination of a period of intensive conceptual discussion, extension of data sources, and improvement of estimating techniques.
