What Changed………..
• Was it the case that the factories/farms and workers that
were producing the goods in the 1920s were no longer there
in the 1930s
• Or, the factories and workers were still there, but they were
not coming together due to fear that output produced may
not be sold

• Dashed lines: Flow of real resources (Goods, Services, factors of
production)
• Solid lines: Monetary flows
• Blue lines: Factor flows/factor payment flows
• Red dashed lines: flows for final demand (C,I,G)
• Black Lines: Transfer payments/channeling of savings from savers
to borrowers (not counted in GDP)
• Intermediate Goods
– Goods used up entirely in the production of final
goods
What is the value of Final Output
• Wheat produced by farmer: 50kg
• Sold to baker: 30Kg @ Rs15/kg. 20 kg was retained by farmer for
consumption in family
• Baker hired some additional workers and Produced 30 Kg of bread.
• Sold 30 kg of bread @ Rs 20 per kg.

Keep all the above assumptions same except that- after producing 30 kg
bread- instead of 30 kg, the baker sold only 20 kg of bread @ Rs 20 per kg.
Total change in GDP : No Change (10 kg unsold bread will become part of inventory)*
*We are ignoring the value added in marketing and selling. If the value/cost of these services is 2 rupees, then the
inventory will worth Rs 18 rather than 20. Ignore this distinction at the moment, as we have defined only two economic
activities: producing wheat, and making bread. We have not introduced retailing as a third economic activity.
• Workers are paid salary in the current year, and actual output
is produced in the current year, so we add inventory in the
GDP
– Presume that the producer has sold the goods to herself, and made
an investment in inventory
• Income Approach
– Measuring national income by adding up income received by all
factors of production
• Production approach
– Computing value added at each stage of production by deducting
value of intermediate products from the output produced.

Deriving GDP by the expenditure approach
• Why
• Distinction between interest paid by private
sector and government
Deriving GDP by the expenditure approach
GDP = C + I + G + X-M
Deriving GDP
by the Income Approach
• Gross Domestic Income (GDI)
– The sum of all income—wages, interest, rent, and
profits—paid to the four factors of production

taxes net of subsidies subsidies
• GDP = C + I + G + NX
• NDP = C + I + G + NX - depreciation
• Net Investment = I - depreciation
– Domestic investment minus an estimate of the wear and
tear on the existing capital stock
Why do we focus on gross rather than net
• Labor:
– An IIM Professor giving receiving honorarium for a lecture in Harvard would be part of
the US GDP but Indian GNP.
– A foreign consultant on 2 months assignment will add to Indian GDP but not GNP.
• Capital:
– If you hold shares in Microsoft or own the US treasury bonds, the dividends/interest
income will add to Indian GNP.
– Maruti’s royalty/dividend payout to Suzuki will be a part of the Japan’s GNP.
• The distinction between GDP and GNP is more important for small countries like Ireland,
Iceland, and tax-heaven countries with lot of NFIs.
Saving Investment Identity
• Y = C + I + G+ X – M
• Let’s call Tax = Tax revenues of the government,
• TR = Transfers payments by the government, then
• Y – Tax + Tra = C+ I + (G- Tax + Tra) + X - M

Inflation and Prices Indexes
Nominal and Real GDP
• If the GDP in terms of INR increases over the years, then
– Total production may increase
– Prices can increase
– Both
• Nominal GDP
– Value of output at prices prevailing in the year of production itself
