*DAY #11 & 12          06 & 07.04.2020*
*TOPIC – NATIONAL INCOME CALCULATION*

*EXPENDITURE METHOD *

EXPENDITURE METHOD FOR MEASURING NATIONAL INCOME-
This method arrives at national income by adding up all the expenditure made on goods and services during a year. Thus, the national income is found by adding up the following types of expenditure by households, private business enterprises and the government: -

1. Private Final Consumption Expenditure (PFCE)(C):

It refers to expenditure incurred by households and private non-profit institutions serving households on all types of consumer goods, i.e. durable (except houses), semi-durable, non-durable goods and services. It includes expenditure on food, medical treatment, travelling, insurance premium etc. Expenditure on consumer goods and services by individuals and households denoted by C. This is called Private Final Consumption Expenditure, denoted by C.
PFCE = Household Final Consumption Expenditure + Private Non-Profit Institutions Serving Households Final Consumption Expenditure

2. Government Final Consumption Expenditure (GFCE)(G):

It refers to the expenditure incurred by general government on various administrative services like defense, law and order, education (books, mid day meal, dresses, bags, chalks etc.), health services (purchase of dresses, bed sheets, medicines, vaccines etc.). Government produces goods and services with the aim of social welfare without any intention of earning profits. Government’s expenditure on goods and services i.e. Government Final Consumption Expenditure, denoted by G.

 

3. Gross Domestic Capital Formation (GDCF) or Gross Investment (I):

A measures to the total investment. ‘Gross’ indicates that it is measured without subtracting allowance for capital consumption. ‘Domestic’ that it refers to investment in the country regardless of ownership. It thus includes investment in the country by companies owned by ‘non’ residents and excludes investment abroad by resident firms.
In other words, It represents the expenditure incurred on acquiring goods for investment by the production units located within the domestic territory. Expenditure by private business enterprises on capital goods and on making additions to inventories or stocks in a year. This is denoted by I.

There are two components of GDCF:
(i) Gross Fixed Capital Formation:
It refers to the expenditure incurred on purchase of fixed assets. It includes (1) Gross Business Fixed Investment: Expenditure on the purchase of new plants, machinery, equipment’s, etc. (2) Gross Residential Construction Investment: Expenditure on purchase or construction of new houses by the households. (3) Gross Public Investment: Expenditure on construction of flyovers, roads, bridges etc. by the government.
(ii) Inventory Investment (Change in Stock):
It refers to the physical change in the stock of raw material, semi-finished goods and finished goods lying, with the producers. It is included as an investment item because it represents the goods produced but not used for current consumption. It is calculated as the difference between the closing stock and the opening stock of the year. It means,
GDCF = Gross Fixed Capital Formation + Inventory Investment; or
Gross Fixed Capital Formation GFCF = Gross Business Fixed Investment + Gross Residential Construction Investment + Gross Public Investment
It is important to understand that purchase of shares and debentures, either old or new, is not included in investment. For example, if I have purchased 500 shares of Reliance Industries, it may be an investment from my point of view, but for economy, it is simply a transfer of purchasing power and not an investment.

4. Net Exports (X – M):

It refers to the difference between exports and imports of a country during a period of one year.
1. Exports (X) refer to expenditure by foreigners on purchase of domestic products. The exported goods have been produced within the country’s domestic territory So; they are included in output of an economy.
2. Imports (M) is the expenditure by residents on foreign products. Imports are deducted to obtain domestic product as they are not produced within the domestic territory.
3. Instead of treating exports and imports separately, the difference between the two is taken and is termed as Net Exports.
4. Import includes expenditures incurred by normal residents, whether in the domestic territory or abroad. So, any expenditure incurred by residents during their foreign tour/travel will be added in Imports. However, any expenditure incurred by non-residents and foreign visitors in the domestic market will be included in exports.

GDPmp = C + I + G + (X – M).

Private Final Consumption Expenditure
+ Government Final Consumption Expenditure
+ Gross Domestic Capital Formation
+ Net Export 
= Gross Domestic Product at Market Price (GDPMP)
(-) Depreciation  
= Net Domestic Product at Market Price (NDPMP)
(-) Net Indirect Tax   
= Net Domestic Product at Factor Price (NDPFC)
(+) Net factor Income from Abroad   
= Net National Product at Factor Price (NNPFC)

PFCE – Consumption Expenditure by House Hold
GFCE – Consumption Expenditure by Govt.
GDCF = Net Domestic Capital Formation + Depreciation
GDCF = Net Domestic Fixed Capital Formation + Change in Stock +  Depreciation
GDCF = Gross Domestic Fixed Capital Formation + Change in Stock
Net Export = Export – Imports

STEPS OF EXPENDITURE METHOD:

Step 1: Identify the Economic Units incurring Final Expenditure - All the economic units, which incur final expenditure within the domestic territory, are classified under 4 groups: (i) Household sector; (ii) Government sector; (iii) Firm (Producing) sector; (iv) Rest of the world sector (Abroad).
Step 2: Classification of Final Expenditure - Final expenditures incurred by the above mentioned economic units are estimated and classified as (1) Private Final Consumption Expenditure (PFCE); (2) Government Final Consumption Expenditure (GFCE); (3) Gross Domestic Capital Formation (GDCF); (4) Net .Exports (X-M).
The sum total of four components of final expenditure gives Gross Domestic Product at Market Price (GDPmp), i.e. GDPmp = PFCE + GFCE + GDCF + (X-M)
Step 3: Calculate Net Domestic Income at Market Price
(NDPmp) - By subtracting the amount of depreciation from GDPmp, we get Net Domestic Income, i.e. NDPmp = GDPmp – Depreciation.
Step 4: Estimates Net domestic Income at Factor Cost (NDPfc) - By subtracting the amount of net indirect taxes from NDPfc, we get Net Domestic Income at factor cost, i.e. NDPfc = NDPmp – Net Indirect Taxes.
Step 5: Estimate Net National Product at Factor Cost / National Income - By adding the amount of Net Factor Income from Abroad / subtracting the amount of Net Factor income Paid to abroad from NDPfc, we get Net National Product at Factor Cost / National Income i.e. NNPfc = NDPfc + Net Factor Income from Abroad / NDPfc – Net factor income paid to abraod

STEPS IN SHORT-
(1) Identify the Economic units incurring Final Expenditure
(2) Classification of Final Expenditure (PFCE + GFCE + GDCF + Net Export = GDPMP)
(3) Calculate Domestic Income (NDPFC) = NDPFC = GDPMP – Depreciation – Net Indirect Tax.
(4) Estimate net factor income from abroad (NFIY) to arrive at National Income. NNPFC = NDPFC + NFIA.

 

PRECAUTIONS OF EXPENDITURE METHOD:

The various precautions to be taken while using the Expenditure Method are:

1. Expenditure on Intermediate Goods will not be included in the national income as it is already included in the value of final expenditure. If it is included again, it will lead to double counting of expenditures.

2. Transfer Payments are not included as such payments are not connected with any productive activity and there is no value addition.
3. Purchase of second-hand goods will not be included as such expenditure has already been included when they were originally purchased. Such goods do not affect the current flow of goods and services. However, any commission or brokerage on such goods is included as it is a payment made for productive service.
4. Purchase of financial assets (shares, debentures, bonds etc.) will not be included as such transactions do not contribute to current flow of goods and services. These financial assets are mere paper claims and involve a change of title only. However, any commission or brokerage on such financial assets is included as it is a productive service.
5. Expenditure on own account production (like production for self-consumption, imputed value of owner occupied houses, free services from general government and private non-profit making institutions serving households) will be included in the national income since these are productive services

PRECAUTIONS IN SHORT-
(1) Expenditure on Intermediate Goods will not be included in the National Income.
(2)Transfer payments are not included.
(3) Purchase of second hand goods will not be included.
(4) Purchase of financial assets (shares, debentures, Bonds) will not be included.
(5) Expenditure on own account production will be included in the National Income.

NUMERICALS -

1. Calculate National Income by Income Method from the following Data:
1.     Govt. final consumption expenditure                                      100
2.     Subsidies                                                                        10
3.     Rent                                                                               200
4.     Wages  and Salaries                                                       600
5.     Indirect taxes                                                                 60
6.     Private final Consumption expenditure                         800
7.     Gross Domestic Capital formation                                120
8.     Social Security contribution by employers                    55
9.     Royalty                                                                          25
10.                        Net factor income paid to abroad                                  30
11.                        Interest                                                                           20
12.                        Consumption of fixed capital                                        10
13.                        Profit                                                                              130
14.                        Net Exports                                                                            70

SOLUTION -
National Income by Expenditure Method= 
GDPmp = Private Final Consumption Expenditure + Government Final Consumption Expenditure + Gross Domestic Capital Formation + Net Export
= 800 + 100 + 120 + 70
= 1090
NDPmp = GDPmp - Depreciation
    = 1090 – 10
   = 1080
NNPmp = NDPmp - Net Factor Income paid to Abroad
              = 1080 - 30
NNPmp = 1050
NNPfc = NNPmp – Net Indirect Tax
          = 1050 – (60 – 10)                                      (Indirect Tax – Subsidy)
          = 1050 – 50
NNPfc = 1000

SOLUTION -
National Income by Expenditure Method= 
GDPmp = Private Final Consumption Expenditure + Government Final Consumption Expenditure + Gross Domestic Capital Formation + Net Export
= 2600 + 1100 + (500 + 100) + (-100)
= 3700 + 600 – 100                 (Net Domestic Capital Formation + Depreciation)
= 4300 – 100
= 4200
NDPmp = GDPmp - Depreciation
    = 4200 – 100
   = 4100
NNPmp = NDPmp + Net Factor Income from Abroad
              = 4100 + (-50)
NNPmp = 4050
NNPfc = NNPmp – Net Indirect Tax
          = 4050 – 250                                    (Indirect Tax – Subsidy)
          = 3800
NNPfc = 3800

SOLUTION -
National Income by Expenditure Method= 
GDPmp = Private Final Consumption Expenditure + Government Final Consumption Expenditure + Gross Domestic Capital Formation + Net Export
= 100 + 20 + (30 + (-5) ) + (-5)
= 120 + (30-5) – 5         (Net Domestic Capital Formation + Depreciation)
= 120 + 25 – 5
= 145 – 5
= 140
NDPmp = GDPmp - Depreciation
    = 140 – 0
   = 140
NNPmp = NDPmp + Net Factor Income from Abroad
              = 140 + (-10)
              = 140 - 10
NNPmp = 130
NNPfc = NNPmp – Net Indirect Tax
          = 130 – (25-5)                                   (Indirect Tax – Subsidy)
          = 130 - 20
NNPfc = 110

SOLUTION -
National Income by Expenditure Method= 
GDPmp = Private Final Consumption Expenditure + Government Final Consumption Expenditure + Gross Domestic Capital Formation (Gross domestic Fixed Capital Formation + (Closing Stock – Opening Stock) + Net Export (Export – Import)
= 1400 + 400 + (280 + (100-60) ) + (40-80)
= 1800 + (280 + 40) + (-40)
= 1800 + 320 – 40
 = 2120 – 40
GDPPmp = 2080
NDPmp = GDPmp - Depreciation
    = 2080 –40
   = 2040
NNPmp = NDPmp + Net Factor Income from Abroad
              = 2040 + (-20)
              = 2040 - 20
NNPmp = 2020
NNPfc = NNPmp – Net Indirect Tax
          = 2020 – 100
          = 1920
NNPfc = 1920
