Gross Domestic Product 国内生产总值
🞂 GDP is the total market value of all final goods and services produced annually
within a country’s borders.
GDP provides information about country’s economy, used to estimate the size of an
economy and growth rate.
GDP measures all final goods produced in Gross National Product (GNP) is the total
a country, whether by citizens or non- market value of all final goods and
citizen. services produced or income earned
annually by the citizens of a country.
🞂 Leisure
--too difficult to quantify
And other, try google…
Can GDP measure the well being of the
economic accurately???.
🞂 GDP only provide rough indicator of the country’s economic, it cant provide
accurate info about people well-being in the country.
🞂 This is because GDP does not measure
🞂 i) Some very useful output because it is unpaid (homemakers’ services,
parental child care, volunteer efforts, home improvement projects).
🞂 Ii) improvements in product quality.
🞂 Iii) improved living conditions as a result of more leisure.
🞂 Iv) Underground Economy (no records exist)
In conclusion, for some countries, even though the value of GDP of the country is
lower compared to other countries, but the people there lives more happily.
GDP and Per Capita GDP
Per Capita GDP
is the GDP divided
by the population.
**Formula:
Per Capita GDP = GDP/ Population
Calculating the GDP by using
expenditure approach
🞂 Expenditure approach only add the amount of money
spent by buyers on final goods and services.
Population = 10 million
Expenditure Approach
Calculate the following from the above data.
(i) Gross Domestic product (GDP)
GDP= C+I+G+(X-M)
=717+ 77.7+(216.5+40.5)+(450-550)
= 951.7
(ii) Gross National Product (GNP)
GNP= GDP-IBW+IFW
=951.7-
=1051.7
(iii) GDP per capital
=951.7/10
= 95.17
Expenditure Approach
Answer:
(i) GDP = C + I + G + Xn
= RM717m + RM77.7m + (RM40.5m +
RM216.5m) + (RM450m – RM550m)
= RM951.7m
You just need to combine them all together to get the value
of NI or NNP.
NI or NNP = 230+4821+689+64+163
=
Computing National Income
🞂 Compensation of Employees: Wages, salaries paid to
employees
🞂 Proprietors’ Income is all forms of income earned by self-

🞂 Rental Income (of Persons) is the income received by
individuals for the use of their non-monetary (non-financial)
assets, such as houses, land.
🞂 Net Interest: interest income received by Malaysian households
and government minus the interest they paid out.
Calculating NI or NNP
🞂 Method I1: if you found the following items in the table
Example: RM
(million)
Consumers’ expenditure 717
Federal government purchases of goods And Services 40.5
Exports of goods and services 450
Imports of goods and services 550
State and local government’s purchases 216.5
Gross private domestic investment 77.7
Income earned by the rest of the world 240
Indirect business taxes (IBT) 40.6
Income earned from the rest of the world 340
Consumption of fixed capital 120
Population = 10 million

Calculating NI or NNP
🞂 Method I1:
Step1 : Calculate GDP by using C+I+G+(X-M)
Step 2: Calculate GNP by using the formula below
GNP= GDP- IBW + IFW
Step 3: Used the GNP to calculate NI or NNP by using the
formula below:
NI or NNP = GNP – Consumption of Fixed Capital (CFC) – Indirect Business Taxes
(IBT) – Capital Consumption Allowance (CCA) - Depreciation (DPR) – Statistical
Discrepancy (STAT)
🞂 Disposable Income =
Personal Income – Personal Taxes
🞂 Peak: at the peak of the business cycle, Real GDP is at a temporary high.
🞂 Contraction: A decline in the real GDP.
🞂 Trough: The Lowest Point of the GDP.
🞂 Recovery: When the GDP is rising from the lowest point until the initial peak
🞂 Expansion: when the real GDP expands and become higher than the previous peak
Recession
The National Bureau of Economic
Research (NBER) definition of a
recession is “ a significant decline
in activity in the economy, lasting
more than a few months, visible in
industrial production, employment,
real income, and wholesale-retail
trade”.
Recessions occur when Real GDP
declines for TWO OR MORE
consecutive quarters.
