MEANING OF CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME 1.3, STOCK AND FLOW 1.4 TYPES OF CIRCULAR FLOW 1.5 CIRCULAR FLOW IN A SIMPLE ECONOMY (TWO-SECTOR ECONOMY) 1.1 INTRODUCTION The unlimited and recurring wants of human beings have made the production process, a continuous process. In this process, different factors of production: Land, Labour, Capital and Enterprise are combined together for production of goods and services. * Firms produce goods and services with collective efforts of factors of production supplied by the household sector * Firm makes payment to the factors of production in the form of rent, wages, interest and profit (known as factor incomes). * The household sector spends this money on the purchase of goods and services produced by the firms. Thus, income flows first from firms to households in the form of factor payments and then, from households) to firms in the form of consumption expenditure. Such a flow of money is known as the circular flow of income. 41.2 MEANING OF CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME It refers to cycle of generation of income in the production process, its distribution among the factors of production and finally, its circulation from households to firms in the form of consumption expenditure on goods and services produced by them, Phases of Circular Flow of Income There are 3 different phases (generation, distribution and disposition) in circular flow of income, as shown in the given diagram: Ww Sexe tgs cannes witn vamscanner ae Introductory Macroeconomi 1, Generation Phase: In this phase, firms produce goods and services with the help of factor services. Distribution Phase: This phase involves the flow of factor income (rent, wages, interest and profit) from firms to the households. Production Phaso {Goneration of incor) r 3, Disposition Phase:In this phase, the income received by factors of production, is spent on the goods and services produced by firms. In this way, income generated in production units Fail reaches back to production units and makes the circular flow complete. Expenditure Phaso (Disposition of Income) 41.3 STOCK AND FLOW The concepts of stock and flow are used frequently in macroeconomics. Some of the macro is important to understand variables relate to stock, while others relate to flow. Therefore, it their meaning so that variables can be categorised as stock or flow. Stock Stock variable refers to that variable, which is measured at a particular point of time, For example stock of goods in the gadown as on 31* January, 2019, It means, stock variables are not time dimensional. Some more examples of stock variables are National wealth, National capital, Money supply etc. Flow Flow variable refers to that variable, which is measured over a period of time. For example, production of goods during the month of January 2019, birth rate in the year 2018, National Income in the year 2018 are flow variables. The ‘period of time’ could be a day, a week, a year, etc. It means, flow variables are time dimensional as they are measured for a period of time. Examples for Better Clarity + The amount of water in tank is the quantity of water in Ste of water ina tank the tank at a given point of time. On the other hand, water flowing into the tank from a tap is a flow of water being, added to the tank per unit of time. © The total number of houses as on December 31, 2018 is the stock concept, while the number of houses constructed during the year 2018 is a flow variable.

Quantity of wheat stored, 5, Quantity of wheat produced, 1.4 TYPES OF CIRCULAR FLOW There are two types of circular lows: (i) Real flow; (i) Money Flow. Real Flow Real flow refers to the flow of factor services from households to firms and the correspondiny flow of goods and services from firms to households. As seen in the diagram, households provide factor services Factor Services ——_ to the firms which, in turn, provide goods and services to itand Labo Capt ar Crerprve) them as a reward for their productive services.

Fig. 1.2 * Real flow determines the magnitude of growth process in an economy. For example, wher more factor services are offered to firms, then volume of production will be more and i speeds up the process of economic growth. Money Flow Money Flow refers to flow of factor payments from firms to cenungun households for their factor services and corresponding flow eae — of consumption expenditure from households to firms for purchase of goods and services produced by the firms.

Name 4.5 CIRCULAR FLOW IN A SIMPLE ECONOMY (TWO-SECTOR ECONOMY) —_ A simple economy assumes the existence of only two sectors, i.e. household sector and firm sector. * Households are the owners of factors of production and consumers of goods and services. * Firms produce goods and services and sell them to the households. Itis the simplest form of closed economy"*, in which there is no government sector and foreign trade. *Closed Economy san economy which has no economic relations with rest of the world. Qpen Economy Is an economy which has economic relations with rest of the world. In order to make our analysis simple, we take some assumptions: 1. There are only 2 sectors in the economy: Households and Firms. It means, there is no government and foreign sector. Household sector supplies factor goctor Services services only to firmsand the firms hire [e0P tm four Domestic concepts.

However, its measurement is an extremely complicated task. * When the process of production takes place, then the factor incomes are paid to factors of production for their factor services. It means, there is an ‘Income Flow’ corresponding to the ‘Output loz". * Factors of production spend their income on purchase of goods and services by making consumption ‘Expenditure’. Thus, production gives rise to income, income results in expenditure, which in turn, generates income again. Similarly, National Income of a country can be measured by 3 different methods: 1. Value Added Method 2. Income Method 3. Expenditure Method. We have three different methods to measure the national income because production, income and expenditure are three different phases of circular flow of income. Use of a particular method depends on the availability of reliable data. the three methods give the same value of national income because they are sod ere te ame physical output at throe different phases. In india, the task of estimating ational income is entrusted with the Centra Statistical Organisation (CSO). 4A Seamed TpSomems cannes witn vamscanner 42 Iniroductory Macroeconomicy 4.2 VALUE ADDED METHOD This method is used to measure national income in different phases of production in the circular flow. It shows the contribution (value added) of each producing unit in the production process, + Every individual enterprise adds certain value to the products, which it purchases from some other firm as intermediate goods. « When value added by each and every individual firm is summed up, we get the value of national income. Value added Method is also known as:()) Product Methods i) Inventory Method; il) Net Output Method, (iv) Industral Origin Method; and (v) Commodity Service Method. \ Concept of Value Added Value added refers to the addition of value to the raw material (intermediate goods) by a firm, by virtue of its productive activities. [tis the contribution of an enterprise to the current flow of goods and services. Its calculated asthe difference between value of output and value of intermediate consumption. Value Added = Value of Output - Intermediate Consumption Example of Concept of Value Added Suppose a baker needs only flour to produce bread. He purchases flour as inputs worth 2 500 from the miller and then by virtue of its productive activities, converts the flour into bread and sells the bread for & 700. In the given example: + Flour is an input (Intermediate goods) and its value of % 500 is termed as value of “Intermediate Consumption’. © Bread is the Output and its value of & 700 is termed as “Value of Output’. © Difference between the value of output and intermediate consumption is termed as ‘Value ‘Added!’ It means, that the baker has added a value of & 200 to the total flow of final goods and services in the economy « Value added by each producing enterprise is also known as the Gross Value Added at Market price (GVAxip) It means, value added by baker (8 200) can be termed either as Value added or GVA yp. * Sum total of GVAyp of all producing enterpris country during one year is equal to GDP yp (G LGVAyp= GDP yyy within the domestic territory of a ss Domestic Product at Market Price), i. Let us now understand ‘Intermediate Consumption’ and ‘Value of Output’ in detall. Intermediate Consumption and Final Consumption Intermediate Consumption refers to the expenditure incurred by a production unit on purchasing those goods and services from other production units, which are meant for resale or for using up completely (i.e. further production) during the same year. In the given example, expenditure on flour is intermediate consumption. Final Consumption refers to the expenditure on goods and services meant for final consumption and investment. In the given example, expenditure on bread is final consumption.

Imports are not Separately Included If value of intermediate consumption is given, then imparts are already incluted on th : not incluled separately as imports are " auc of intermediate consumption. However, if domestic purchases are specifically mentioned, then imports will also be included. Let us understand this through following cases: Calculate Intermediate Consumption in the following cases: Case 1: (i) Intermediate Consumption = & 1,200; (ii) Imports Ans. Intermediate Consumption = 2 1,200 ‘As imports are already included in the value of intermediate consumption. Case 2: (i) Purchase of raw material from domestic firm = % 500; ) Imports= @ 100 Ans. Intermediate Consumption = 2500 + 2100 = 7600 Imports are included as it is specifically mentioned that purchase of raw material is from domestic firm, Case 3: (i) Purchase of raw material = & 1,000; (ii) Imports= % 200 Ans. Intermediate Consumption = 71,000 Imports are not included as total purchase of raw material is given. Value of Output Value of output refers to market value of all goods and services produced during a period of one year. How to Measure the Value of Output? (i) When the entire output is sold in an accounting year, then: Value of Output = Sales (ii), When the entire output is not sold in an accounting year, then the unsold stock is added to les. Unsold stock is the excess of closing stock over opening stock and is the value of termed as ‘Change in Stock’. It means, Value of Output = Sales + Change in Stock Where, Change in stock = Closing stock - Opening stock One More way to Calculate Value of Output Itcan also be calculated as: Value of Output = (Quantity x Price) + Change in Stock Forexample, ifa firm manufactures 1,000 pairs of shoes annually and sells them @ 2 500 per pair {assuming change in stock is nil), then: Value of Output = 1,000 « 500 = 2 5,00,000 Exports are not Separately Included Like imports, exports are also not separatel sales are not specifically mentioned).

Value of Output = % 2,000 As exports are already included in the value of sales. Case 2: (i) Domestic Sales = % 700; (ii) Exports= % 200 Ans. Value of Output = 7700 + £200 = * 900 Exports are included as domestic sales are specifically mentioned. Before we proceed with the steps needed to estimate national income, let us first group th, various production units into distinct industrial yroups or sectors. It is done because it is easier to estimate national income of a group of similar production units as compared to es for each production unit separately. mating (EP a ‘Allthe production unis of the economic torrtory are grouped into three broad groups: 1. Primary Sector: It ncludes production units explosting natural resources Vike land, water, clibsoll assets, ele. For example, farming, lishing. rnining, arumal husbandry. oresiry, ete itis primary as iis the source of basic raw materials lor the secondary sector. 2. Secondary Sector: It includes production units which are engaged 19 transforming one {ood into another good. Such an actly #8 called manulaciuring activity. These units sonvert raw materials into finished goods. For example, twms engaged in converting sugarcane into sugar, construction companies, power generation, ele Iis called Secondary because il depends on primary sector for raw materials. 3, Tertlary Sector:llincludes production units engaged in producing services. For example, transport, edueatan, nance. government administration, etc. This sector linds third place because is growth is primarily dependent on primary and secondary Sectors.
