Precautions regarding production method
(i) Value of the sale and purchase of second hand goods is not included in
value added because, value of these goods is already accounted for during
the year they were first time produced.
(ii) Commission earned on account of the sale and purchase of second hand
goods is included in the estimation of value added. Because, commission is
a factor payment for service rendered this is a new service.
(iii) Own account production of goods of the producing units is taken into
account while estimating value added. Becaue these goods are like those
produced for the market. They are simply not sold owing to their need by
the producers themselves. If we do not include, this cause under
estimation of national income.
(iv) Value of intermediate goods is not included in the estimation of value
added. Because, value of intermediate goods is reflected in the value of final
goods. If we include this cause overestimation of national income.
(v) Change in stock (increase in stock) will be included because it is a part of
capital formation.
(vi) Services for self-consumption is not considered while estimating value
added. Simply because, it is difficult to estimate their market value, like
services of housewives.
Problem of Double Counting
Problem of double counting is the problem
of estimating the value of goods and services more than once. In production
method we take the value of final goods and services only if we mistakenly
taken
the value of intermediate goods this leads to double counting or
overestimation
of national income because value of intermediate goods is already included in
value of final goods.
So, to avoid the problem of double counting
(i) Take value added instead of total output.
(ii) Take the value of final products only
Precautions Regarding Income Method
1. Transfer earnings like old age pensions, unemployment allowances,
scholarship, pocket money etc. should not be included in national income,
because corresponding to transfer payment there is no value addition in
the economy. Similarly, indirect taxes are not included.
2. Income from illegal activities like smuggling, theft, gambling etc. should not
be included in national income. Black money is not to be counted in
national income. Lottery also not included because it is a windfall gain.
There is no productive activity connected with them.
3. Income from sale of second hand goods not included but commissions
received on the sale of secondhand goods are to be included in national
income because these are new factor income for rendering factor services.
4. Do not include income arising from the sale of financial assets. These are
share, bonds, debentures, govt. Securities, etc. Buying and selling of these
are not an activity related to production of goods and services.
(However any Commission or brokerage charged by the intermediaries is a
payment for the services rendered by them and is a factor income).
5. Imputed rent of owner occupied houses is to be treated along with rent as
a component of factor incomes. Corresponding to production for self-
consumption must be included
Precautions Regarding Expenditure Method
1. Do not include expenditure on intermediate goods and services:
Intermediate expenditure is already a part of final expenditure. So,
including intermediate expenditure will mean double counting of
expenditure.
2. Include imputed expenditure on self-consumed or own account produced:
Output used for consumption and investment. eg. self consumed output by
farmers, self consumed services of owner occupied houses are included.
3. Do not include expenditure on transfer payments: A transfer payment is
one against which no goods or services is provided is return. eg. gift,
donations, charity, scholarship, old age pension, unemployment allowances
etc.
4. Do not include expenditure on financial assets: It means expenditure on
buying shares, debentures, bonds, govt. securities etc. But if any brokerage or
services charge is paid in buying financial assets it is treated as expenditure on
buying services. Hence brokerage, commission are included.
5. Do not include expenditure on second hand goods: Expenditure on these
goods was accounted when they were purchased new. Including expenditure
on second hand goods would mean counting of the same expenditure twice.
No fresh production takes place in such a case. However, if any commission or
brokerage is paid to an intermediary in such transaction it should be treated as
final expenditure because it is a fresh payment for the services purchased.
