11.Problem of double counting refers to adding the value of one output
more than once while estimating National Income. Problem: Due to this the
National Income is over estimated
Methods of avoiding:
This can be avoided by two methods
1. Final Output Method
In this method only the value of final output are included. The value of
intermediate cost are not included.
2. Value Added Method:
In this method the value added in various stages of production are taken in
to accounting
while estimating National Income instead of adding value of output in each
stage. The value of the final, output is equal to the sum of the value added

supply, it means buyers are planning to buy more goods and services than
producers are planning to produce. Thus, the inventories in hand with the
producers will start falling. As a result, producers will plan to raise the
production. This will increase the level of income up to the level aggregate
demand is equal to aggregate supply.

GDP = Wage + Rent + Interest + Profit
or
GDP = COE + Rent + Interest + Profit + Mixed income.
Expenditure Method:
GDP = PFCE +GFCE + Investment Expenditure + Net Export.

17. (A ) (a) Y= C + I
Y= (100+ 0. 8Y) +200
= 300+0.8 Y
Y-0.8 Y= 300
0.2 Y =300
Y= 300/0.2 =Rs.1500 crores
(b) C= C + 0.8 Y
Substitute the value of Y = 1500
= 100+ 0.8(1500)
= 100 + 1200 = Rs.1300 crores
Savings = Income (Y)- Consumption (C)
= 1500 - 1300
= Rs.200 crores
(B) Deflationary gap is that situation when Aggregate Demand is lesser
than Aggregate Supply corresponding to full employment level. (1)
Two fiscal measures are to control it are:
a) Decrease in Taxes - To curb the deflationary gap the government may
decrease the taxes. This may increase the purchasing power in the hands
of the people which in turn may increase the Aggregate Demand in the
economy to bring it equal to the Aggregate Supply. (1)
b) Increase in Government Expenditure- To curb the deflationary gap the
government may increase its expenditure. This may increase the
purchasing power in the hands of the people which in turn may increase the
Aggregate Demand in the economy to bring it equal to the Aggregate
Supply. (1)
