Summary
VALUE ADDAD METHOD Gross value added in primary sector + GVA in secondary sec. + GVA in tertiary sector = GDP at mkt. price - Depreciation = NDP at mkt. price INCOME METHOD Compensation of employees + Operating surplus + Mixed income of self employed = Net domestic income + Net factor income from abroad = National Income (NNP at FC)
EXPENDITURE METHOD Final consumption expenditure + Investment expenditure + Govt. expenditure + Net Exports = GDP at mkt. price - Depreciation = NDP at mkt. price
- Net Indirect Taxes = NDP at factor cost + Net factor income from abroad = National Income (NNP at FC)
- Net Indirect Taxes = NDP at factor cost + Net factor income from abroad = National Income (NNP at FC) 45
