Question 1Question

An economy records a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of 850 million Naira. The factor income earned by citizens from abroad is 30 million Naira, while factor income paid to foreigners within the domestic economy is 70 million Naira. If the capital consumption allowance (depreciation) is 65 million Naira, what is the Net National Product (NNP) of the country in million Naira?

Show answer & explanation

Answer: 745

Answer

The Net National Product (NNP) of the country is 745 million Naira.
To determine the Net National Product (NNP), first calculate Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA) as factor income from abroad (3030 million Naira) minus factor income paid abroad (7070 million Naira), yielding 40-40 million Naira. Gross National Product (GNP) is then calculated as GDP+NFIA=850+(40)=810\text{GDP} + \text{NFIA} = 850 + (-40) = 810 million Naira. Finally, subtract capital consumption allowance (6565 million Naira) from GNP to get NNP=81065=745\text{NNP} = 810 - 65 = 745 million Naira.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Calculate Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA)
NFIA = 3070=4030 - 70 = -40 million Naira
Net Factor Income from Abroad is the difference between income received from abroad by residents and income paid to non-residents domestically.
2
Calculate Gross National Product (GNP)
GNP = 850+(40)=810850 + (-40) = 810 million Naira
GNP is obtained by adjusting GDP for Net Factor Income from Abroad.
3
Calculate Net National Product (NNP)
NNP = 81065=745810 - 65 = 745 million Naira
NNP is obtained by subtracting capital consumption allowance (depreciation) from GNP.

If the capital consumption allowance (depreciation) is 40 billion, what is the Net National Product (NNP) of this economy?

Show answer & explanation

Answer: $440 billion

Answer

$440 billion
To find Net National Product (NNP), first calculate Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA) by subtracting factor income paid to foreigners (50billion)fromfactorincomeearnedfromabroad(50 billion) from factor income earned from abroad ( 30 billion), giving -20billion.AddingNFIAtoGDPgivesGrossNationalProduct(GNP=20 billion. Adding NFIA to GDP gives Gross National Product (GNP = 500 billion - 20billion=20 billion = 480 billion). Finally, subtracting capital consumption allowance (40billion)fromGNPyieldsNNPequalto40 billion) from GNP yields NNP equal to 440 billion.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Calculate Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA)
NFIA = Factor income from abroad - Factor income paid abroad = 30billion30 billion - 50 billion = -$20 billion
NFIA measures the net flow of income between domestic citizens earning abroad and foreign residents earning within the domestic economy.
2
Calculate Gross National Product (GNP)
GNP = GDP + NFIA = 500billion+(500 billion + (- 20 billion) = $480 billion
GNP accounts for the total economic output produced by citizens of a nation regardless of geographic boundary.
3
Calculate Net National Product (NNP)
NNP = GNP - Depreciation = 480billion480 billion - 40 billion = $440 billion
Deducting capital consumption allowance (depreciation) from GNP yields the net production available after accounting for capital wear and tear.

Question 3Question

An economy has a Gross National Product (GNP) of N750\text{N}750 million and a Net National Product (NNP) of N680\text{N}680 million. What is the value of the capital consumption allowance?

Show answer & explanation

Answer: N70\text{N}70 million

Answer

N70\text{N}70 million
The correct answer is derived by subtracting Net National Product (NNP) from Gross National Product (GNP). Since NNP reflects total production minus wear and tear on capital goods (depreciation), the difference between N750\text{N}750 million and N680\text{N}680 million equals the capital consumption allowance of N70\text{N}70 million.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the relationship between Gross National Product (GNP), Net National Product (NNP), and Capital Consumption Allowance (Depreciation).
NNP=GNPDepreciation\text{NNP} = \text{GNP} - \text{Depreciation}
Net National Product represents gross national output after accounting for the depreciation of capital assets.
2
Rearrange the identity to solve for Depreciation (Capital Consumption Allowance).
Capital Consumption Allowance=GNPNNP\text{Capital Consumption Allowance} = \text{GNP} - \text{NNP}
Isolating the depreciation component allows direct computation from given figures.
3
Substitute the given numerical values into the rearranged formula.
Capital Consumption Allowance=N750 millionN680 million=N70 million\text{Capital Consumption Allowance} = \text{N}750\text{ million} - \text{N}680\text{ million} = \text{N}70\text{ million}
Subtracting N680\text{N}680 million from N750\text{N}750 million yields the correct depreciation value.

What is the value of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP\text{GDP}) of this economy in million Naira?

Show answer & explanation

Answer: 6840

Answer

6840 million Naira
To calculate Gross Domestic Product (GDP), first derive Gross National Product (GNP) by adding Capital Consumption Allowance (Depreciation) to Net National Product (NNP): GNP=6,200+450=6,650 million Naira\text{GNP} = 6,200 + 450 = 6,650\text{ million Naira}. Next, compute Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA) as factor income received from abroad minus factor income paid to foreigners: NFIA=320510=190 million Naira\text{NFIA} = 320 - 510 = -190\text{ million Naira}. Finally, apply the national accounting identity GNP=GDP+NFIA\text{GNP} = \text{GDP} + \text{NFIA}, rearranged as GDP=GNPNFIA=6,650(190)=6,840 million Naira\text{GDP} = \text{GNP} - \text{NFIA} = 6,650 - (-190) = 6,840\text{ million Naira}.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Calculate Gross National Product (GNP) from Net National Product (NNP) and Depreciation
GNP = 6,200 + 450 = 6,650 million Naira
Gross aggregates include depreciation, whereas net aggregates exclude it: GNP=NNP+Depreciation\text{GNP} = \text{NNP} + \text{Depreciation}.
2
Determine Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA)
NFIA = 320 - 510 = -190 million Naira
NFIA is defined as factor income earned from abroad by citizens minus factor income paid to foreign residents domestically.
3
Determine Gross Domestic Product (GDP) using GNP and NFIA
GDP = 6,650 - (-190) = 6,840 million Naira
Because GNP=GDP+NFIA\text{GNP} = \text{GDP} + \text{NFIA}, rearranging gives GDP=GNPNFIA\text{GDP} = \text{GNP} - \text{NFIA}. Subtracting a negative value is equivalent to adding its positive magnitude.

Question 5Question

In a given fiscal year, a nation records a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of $900 billion\$900\text{ billion} and a capital consumption allowance (depreciation) of $60 billion\$60\text{ billion}. What is the value of the country's Net Domestic Product (NDP)?

Show answer & explanation

Answer: $840 billion\$840\text{ billion}

Answer

The Net Domestic Product (NDP) of the country is $840 billion\$840\text{ billion}.
Net Domestic Product (NDP) measures the net market value of all final goods and services produced within a country's boundaries. It is calculated by subtracting Capital Consumption Allowance (depreciation) from Gross Domestic Product (GDP): NDP=GDPDepreciation=$900 billion$60 billion=$840 billion\text{NDP} = \text{GDP} - \text{Depreciation} = \$900\text{ billion} - \$60\text{ billion} = \$840\text{ billion}.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the relationship between Gross Domestic Product (GDP), depreciation, and Net Domestic Product (NDP)
NDP=GDPDepreciation\text{NDP} = \text{GDP} - \text{Depreciation}
Net aggregates account for the wear and tear of capital goods used during production.
2
Substitute the given numeric values into the national income accounting identity
NDP=$900 billion$60 billion=$840 billion\text{NDP} = \$900\text{ billion} - \$60\text{ billion} = \$840\text{ billion}
Subtracting $60 billion\$60\text{ billion} from $900 billion\$900\text{ billion} yields the net value of domestic output.

Question 6Question

The following national income figures are recorded for an economy in a given year:

- Gross Domestic Product at market prices (GDPmpGDP_{mp}): $1,420\$1,420 billion
- Factor income received by domestic residents from abroad: $95\$95 billion
- Factor income paid to foreign residents within the domestic economy: $140\$140 billion
- Capital Consumption Allowance (Depreciation): $105\$105 billion
- Indirect taxes: $115\$115 billion
- Subsidies: $30\$30 billion

What is the Net National Product at factor cost (NNPfcNNP_{fc}) of this economy in billions of dollars?

Show answer & explanation

Answer: 1185

Answer

The Net National Product at factor cost (NNPfcNNP_{fc}) is $1,185 billion.
To derive Net National Product at factor cost (NNPfcNNP_{fc}), start with GDPmp=1,420GDP_{mp} = 1,420. Calculate Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIANFIA) as 95140=4595 - 140 = -45 billion dollars, giving GNPmp=1,420+(45)=1,375GNP_{mp} = 1,420 + (-45) = 1,375 billion dollars. Subtracting depreciation (105105 billion dollars) yields NNPmp=1,270NNP_{mp} = 1,270 billion dollars. Finally, subtracting Net Indirect Taxes (11530=85115 - 30 = 85 billion dollars) converts market price to factor cost: 1,27085=1,1851,270 - 85 = 1,185 billion dollars.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Determine Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA)
NFIA = 95 billion95\text{ billion} - 140\text{ billion} = -\45 billion45\text{ billion}
NFIA measures the net flow of factor earnings between domestic residents and the rest of the world.
2
Convert GDP at market prices to GNP at market prices
GNP_{mp} = 1,420 billion+($45 billion)=$1,375 billion1,420\text{ billion} + (-\$45\text{ billion}) = \$1,375\text{ billion}
Adding NFIA to domestic product converts gross domestic output to gross national output.
3
Deduct depreciation to obtain NNP at market prices
NNP_{mp} = 1,375 billion$105 billion=$1,270 billion1,375\text{ billion} - \$105\text{ billion} = \$1,270\text{ billion}
Subtracting capital consumption allowance converts gross national measures to net national measures.
4
Calculate Net Indirect Taxes (NIT)
NIT = 115 billion$30 billion=$85 billion115\text{ billion} - \$30\text{ billion} = \$85\text{ billion}
Net indirect taxes equal total indirect taxes minus subsidies provided by government.
5
Adjust NNP at market prices to factor cost
NNP_{fc} = 1,270 billion$85 billion=$1,185 billion1,270\text{ billion} - \$85\text{ billion} = \$1,185\text{ billion}
Converting from market price evaluation to factor cost requires subtracting indirect taxes and adding back subsidies.

What is the Net National Product (NNP\text{NNP}) of this economy?

Show answer & explanation

Answer: N3,190 million\text{N}3,190\text{ million}

Answer

The Net National Product (NNP) of the economy is N3,190 million\text{N}3,190\text{ million}.
Net National Product (NNP) is obtained by taking Gross Domestic Product (GDP\text{GDP}), adjusting for Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA\text{NFIA}), and subtracting Capital Consumption Allowance (depreciation). Here, NFIA=N180mN240m=N60m\text{NFIA} = \text{N}180\text{m} - \text{N}240\text{m} = -\text{N}60\text{m}. Thus, GNP=N3,500m+(N60m)=N3,440m\text{GNP} = \text{N}3,500\text{m} + (-\text{N}60\text{m}) = \text{N}3,440\text{m}. Subtracting depreciation of N250m\text{N}250\text{m} yields an NNP\text{NNP} of N3,190 million\text{N}3,190\text{ million}.

Answer: N800 million\text{N}800\text{ million}

Answer

N800 million\text{N}800\text{ million}
To find Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA\text{NFIA}), we use the core identities of national income accounting. First, Gross Domestic Product (GDP\text{GDP}) is derived by adding depreciation (Capital Consumption Allowance) to Net Domestic Product (NDP\text{NDP}): GDP=N8,100 million+N600 million=N8,700 million\text{GDP} = \text{N}8,100\text{ million} + \text{N}600\text{ million} = \text{N}8,700\text{ million}. Next, Gross National Product (GNP\text{GNP}) is related to GDP\text{GDP} by the formula GNP=GDP+NFIA\text{GNP} = \text{GDP} + \text{NFIA}. Rearranging for NFIA\text{NFIA} gives NFIA=GNPGDP=N9,500 millionN8,700 million=N800 million\text{NFIA} = \text{GNP} - \text{GDP} = \text{N}9,500\text{ million} - \text{N}8,700\text{ million} = \text{N}800\text{ million}.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Calculate Gross Domestic Product (GDP\text{GDP}) from Net Domestic Product (NDP\text{NDP}) and Capital Consumption Allowance.
GDP=NDP+Depreciation=N8,100 million+N600 million=N8,700 million\text{GDP} = \text{NDP} + \text{Depreciation} = \text{N}8,100\text{ million} + \text{N}600\text{ million} = \text{N}8,700\text{ million}
Gross aggregates include depreciation, while net aggregates exclude depreciation.
2
Calculate Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA\text{NFIA}) using the identity relating GNP\text{GNP} and GDP\text{GDP}.
NFIA=GNPGDP=N9,500 millionN8,700 million=N800 million\text{NFIA} = \text{GNP} - \text{GDP} = \text{N}9,500\text{ million} - \text{N}8,700\text{ million} = \text{N}800\text{ million}

- Capital Consumption Allowance (CCA\text{CCA}): N380 million\text{N}380\text{ million}

Calculate the Net National Product (NNP\text{NNP}) of the country in millions of Naira.

Show answer & explanation

Answer: 4870

Answer

The Net National Product (NNP) of the country is N4,870 million.
Net National Product (NNP) is obtained by adding Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA) to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to get Gross National Product (GNP), and then subtracting Capital Consumption Allowance (CCA). Here, NFIA = N450 million - N600 million = -N150 million. Thus, GNP = N5,400 million - N150 million = N5,250 million. Finally, NNP = N5,250 million - N380 million = N4,870 million.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Calculate Net Factor Income from Abroad (NFIA)
NFIA = N450 million - N600 million = -N150 million
NFIA measures the net flow of factor payments between domestic citizens abroad and foreign residents domestically.
2
Calculate Gross National Product (GNP)
GNP = N5,400 million + (-N150 million) = N5,250 million
GNP adjusts GDP for net factor receipts from abroad.
3
Calculate Net National Product (NNP)
NNP = N5,250 million - N380 million = N4,870 million
NNP reflects the net output available to an economy after accounting for capital depreciation.
