Question
Distinguish between Gross National Product and Net National Product.
Solution 1
| Points | Gross National Product | Net National Product |
| 1. At Market Price (GNP(MP)) |
It means the gross value of final goods and services produced annually in a country, which is estimated according to the price prevailing in the market. Market price including cost of production + indirect taxes.
GNP(MP) = C + I + G + (X-M) + (R-P)
|
Net national product at market price is the net market value of all final goods and services produced, by the residents of a country, during a period of one year. If we deduct depreciation from GNP at market prices we get NNP at market prices. NNP(MP) – GNP(MP) = Depreciation |
| 2. At Factor Cost (GNP(FC)) |
Gross national product at factor cost is the sum of the money value of the income, produced by and accruing to the various factors of production in one year in a country.
In order to arrive at GNP at factor cost, we deduct indirect taxes from GNP at market prices and add subsidies to GNP at Market. Prices.
GNP(FC) = GNP(MP) - Indirect Taxes + Subsidies
|
Net national product at factor cost is the net money, value of all final goods and services produced by the residents of a country, during a period of year. It includes income earned by factors of production. NNP(FC) - NNP(MP) - Indirect Taxes + Subsidies |
Solution 2

The budget shows a fiscal deficit of more than 5%.
The Union Finance Minister has presented a budget that seeks to accelerate the economy by balancing the impact of Corona on the economy on one hand and growing expectations of all sectors on the other. A significant increase in the allocation for Healthcare by 137% is a feature of this budget. In this budget, the expected revenue for the year 212-2022 is Rs. 34,35, 000crore and the expected expenditure is Rs. 35,83, 000 crore.
