In a country, Gross Domestic Product at market prices (GDP at MP) is ₹900 crore, depreciation is ₹60 crore, net factor income from abroad is ₹20 crore, and net indirect taxes (indirect taxes minus subsidies) are ₹80 crore. What is the Net National Product at factor cost (NNP at FC)?

NNP at factor cost is ₹780 crore. Add net factor income from abroad to GDP to get GNP of ₹920 crore, subtract depreciation to get NNP at market price of ₹860 crore, then subtract net indirect taxes of ₹80 crore to reach factor cost.

  1. A₹780 croreCorrect
  2. B₹800 crore
  3. C₹860 crore
  4. D₹740 crore

Explanation

GNP at MP = 900 + 20 = ₹920 crore. NNP at MP = 920 − 60 = ₹860 crore. NNP at FC = NNP at MP − net indirect taxes = 860 − 80 = ₹780 crore. The option ₹860 crore is wrong because it does not remove net indirect taxes.
