Question : 1

The National Income of a country (India) is equal to which of the following:

a) Net National Product at Factor Cost

b) Net National Product at Market Prices

c) Gross National Product (GNP)

d) Income going to the household sector

Answer: (b)

National Income (NI) and Net National Income (NNI) are the same terms and are used interchangeably.

National Income = Net National Income (NNI) = Net National Product (NNP)

Earlier (before January 2015) NSO was using factor cost to calculate NNP but now it uses Market Prices to calculate NNP.

Question : 2

Consider the following statements regarding Capital formation:

  1. Gold and valuable metals are part of Fixed Capital Formation
  2. Intellectual properties are part of Fixed capital formation
  3. Construction of buildings and other structures are part of Capital Formation
Select the correct answer using the code given below:

a) (ii) & (iii) only

b) (i) & (iii) only

c) (i) only

d) (iii) only

Answer: (a)

Gross Capital Formation = Gross Fixed Capital Formation (machinery + equipment + building + cultivated biological resources + intellectual property) + Valuable Metals + Change in stock/inventory

Gross fixed capital formation is around 30% and valuable metals and change in the stock is one per cent each.

So Gross Capital Formation or Gross Investment is around 32%. Mostly we use the gross fixed investment for all calculations and growth purposes.

  1. Increase in the savings rate
  2. Decrease in the savings rate
  3. Increase in Capital Formation
  4. Decrease in Capital Formation
Select the correct answer using the code given below:

a) (i) & (iv) only

b) (ii) & (iv) only

c) (i) & (iii) only

d) (ii) & (iii) only

Answer: (c)

Whenever in any country, the working population increases and dependent population decreases, the savings in the economy increases. (This also happens at the family level.

If a family has more working members and fewer dependents then the savings of the family increases). The increased savings leads to an increase in investments.

So, (i) & (iii) statements are true.
