21 National-income accounting
national-income accounting - облік національного доходу gross national product - валовий національний продукт GNP per capita - ВНП у розрахунку на душу населення net national product (NNP) - чистий національний продукт intermediate goods - проміжний продукт nominal GNP - номінальний ВНП |
real GNP - реальний ВНП depreciation - амортизація, зношування gross investment - валові інвестиції net investment - чисті інвестиції exports - експортовані товари imports - імпортовані товари |
National-income accounting is the measurement of aggregate economic activity, particularly national income and its components. It enables us to identify economic problems and provides an objective basis for evaluating policy.
Gross national product is the total market value of all final goods and services produced in a given time period. GNP per capita is total population: average GNP. GNP per capita relates the total value of annual output to the number of people who share that output; it refers to the average GNP per person.
A very basic problem in calculating GNP arises from the fact the production of output typically involves a series of distinct stages. For example, for bread to reach the supermarket, the farmer must grow some wheat, the miller must convert it to flour, and the baker must make bread with it.We must focus on the value of final goods and services and exclude intermediate goods from our calculation. Intermediate goods are goods or services purchased for use as input in the production of final goods or services.
Nominal GNP is the value of final output produced in a given period, measured in the prices of that period (current prices).To distinguish increases in the quantity of goods and services from increases in their prices, we must construct a measure of GNP that takes into account price level changes. We do so by distinguishing between real GNP and nominal GNP. Nominal GNP is the value of final output measured in that year's prices, but calculating real GNP we value goods and services at constant prices.
Production possibilities are the alternative combinations of final goods and services that could be produced in a given time period with all available resources and technology.
Depreciation is the consumption of capital in the production process; the wearing out of plant and equipment. This calculation leaves us with another measure of output; net national product. NNP is the amount of output we could consume without reducing our stock of capital.
The distinction between GNP and NNP is mirrored in a distinction between gross investment and net investment. Gross investment is positive as long as new plants and equipment are being produced. But our stock of capital (our total collection of plant and equipment) will not grow unless gross investment exceeds depreciation. When gross investment exceeds depreciation, net investment is positive.
Exports are goods and services sold to foreign buyers. Imports are goods and services purchased from foreign countries. The GNP accounts subtract imports from exports. The difference represents net exports.
