Question:

Consider the following data relating to the financial year 2021-2022 and answer the following questions based on this data.

How do you calculate the value of net factor income from/ to abroad in the given question?

Options:

GNPFC – GNPMP

GNPMP – NNPMP

NDPMP NNPMP

None of the above

Correct Answer:

NDPMP NNPMP

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 3: NDPMP NNPMP

NNPMP =  NDPMP + NFIA

When there is Net Factor Income from Abroad, it will mean NNPMP > NDPMP.

Thus, in this case Net Factor Income from Abroad= NNPMP – NDPMP.

When there is Net Factor income to Abroad, it will mean NDPMPNNPMP

Thus, in this case Net Factor Income to Abroad=NDPMP NNPMP

Given,

NDPMP =1,00,000

NNPMP =90,000

NFIA= 90,000-100000 = -10,000 (Net Factor Income To Abroad)

In this case, since there is Net Factor Income to Abroad, NFIA =NDPMP NNPMP

Alternatively,

GNPMP =  GDPMP + NFIA

NFIA = GNPMP - GDPMP

Option 1: GNPFC – GNPMP isIncorrect

GNPFC =  GNPMP - NIT

GNPFC  = GDPMP + NFIA - NIT

Thus, GNPFC – GNPMP = NFIA-NIT

Option 2: GNPMP – NNPMP is incorrect

GNPMP =  GDPMP + NFIA

NNPMP =  NDPMP + NFIA

GNPMP – NNPMP= GDPMP + NFIA- NDPMP - NFIA
