  2. It is the income earned by a country's residents and nonresidents both

c) (i) & (iii) only

d) (ii), (iii) & (iv) only

Answer: (c)

Gross National Income (GNI) is the income earned by Indian residents only whether in India or abroad.

(If an Indian has gone abroad for less than 6 months then also, he is an Indian resident only).

GNI does not include the income earned by Non-Resident Indians (NRIs). And it is equal to GDP plus net factor income from abroad (NFIA).

GNI = GNP = GDP + NFIA

Question : 19

Consider the following statements:

  1. Net Factor Income from Abroad is equivalent to the net of exports & imports
  2. Net of Indirect taxes and subsidies are included in the calculation of national income
Select the correct answer using the code given below:

a) Both (i) & (ii)

b) (ii) only

c) (i) only

d) Neither (i) nor (ii)

Answer: (b)

Goods and services produced in India and sold outside the country i.e. to foreigners are referred to as exports. But the Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA) is the income earned by the four factors of production from abroad.

In case of NFIA, the production happens abroad but in case of exports, the production happens in the domestic country. So NFIA is different from exports and hence statement (i) is false

Now (post-2015), the indirect taxes and subsidies are included in the GDP and GNP calculation.

So, statement (ii) is true

Question : 20

Consider the following statements regarding Gross Domestic Product:

  1. It is the value added by all the firms in the economy
  2. It is the final value of goods and services produced in the economy
  3. It is the sum of final consumption and investment expenditure by the household, private and government sector and net of exports and imports
  4. It is the income received by the four factors of production
Select the correct answer using the code given below:

a) (i), (ii) & (iv) only

b) (i), (ii) & (iii) only

c) (i) & (ii) only

d) All of the above

Answer: (d)

GDP is the sum of the final value of all goods and services (consumption and capital) produced in the economy or it can also be defined as the value added by all the enterprises/firms in the economy (by value-added method). So (i) & (ii) statements are true.

By expenditure method, GDP = C + I + G + X-M

C + I + G is the expenditure done by the three sectors of the economy on two types of final goods i.e. consumption and capital (investment goods). X-M is the net of exports and imports. So, (iii) statement is also true.

By the Income method, GDP is also equal to the income received by the four factors of production i.e. Profit, Rent, Interest and wages. So, (iv) statement is also true.
