CHAPTER 1ST CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME
HOUSEHOLDS TWO SECTOR

PRODUCERS/FIRMS

GOVERNMENT THREE SECTOR

ABOROAD FOUR SECTOR

CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME;


It refers to cycle of generation of income in the production process, its
distribution among factors of production and finally its circulation from
households to firms in the form of consumption expenditure on goods and
services produced by firms.

PHASES OF CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME


1.) GENERATION PHASE
In this phase firms produce goods and services with the help of factors of
production.

2.) DISTRIBUTION PHASE


this phase involves flow of factor income from firms to households for hiring
factor services. It includes rent, wages, salary , interest and profits.

3.) DISPOSITION PHASE


In this phase the income received by the households is spent on goods and
services produced by firms.

STOCK AND FLOW


STOCK
STOCK refers to that variable which is measured at a particular point of time. It
must be noted that stock variable do not have any time dimension.

Examples of stock variable are;

1. goods in the godown on 31st jan. 2015

2. national wealth

3. national capital

4. money supply

5. bank deposits on a particular date

6. population on a particular date

7. capital

FLOW- FLOW refers to that variable which is measured over a period of time. It
must be noted that flow variable always has a time dimension.
Examples of flow variable are;

1. production during month of January

2. birth rate of an year

3. profits and losses

4. savings

5. national income

6. GDP

7. investment or capital formation.

FOR EXAMPLE:

The amount of water in a tank is the quantity of water in a tank at a


particular point of time, so it’s a stock whereas, water flowing into the tank
from a tap is a flow of water bcoz it is measured over a period of time.

IT MUST BE NOTED THAT, CAPITAL IS A STOCK CONCEPT WHEREAS


INVESTMENT IS A FLOW CONCEPT BECAUSE INVESTMENT INCLUDES
REGULAR INCOME ALSO.
CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME

REAL FLOW MONEY FLOW

REAL FLOW/PHYSICAL FLOW;


It refers to the flow of factor services from households to firms and
corresponding flow of goods and services from firms to households.

REAL FLOW determines the magnitude or amount of growth process in an


economy. When more factor services are offered to firm then volume of
production will be more and thus economic growth will increase.

MONEY FLOW/NOMINAL FLOW


It refers to the flow of factor payments from firms to households and
corresponding flow of money from households to firms in the form of
consumption expenditure.

It involves exchange of money between households and firms.

FOUR SECTORS OF THE ECONOMY –


1.) HOUSEHOLD SECTOR – it includes consumers of goods and services and also
the owners of factors of production. they supply factors like land, labour, capital
and enterprise and receive income in return called as rent, wages, salary,
interest and profits respectively.

2.) PRODUCING SECTOR (FIRMS) – it includes all producing firms in the


Economy. To produce goods and services, the firm hires factors of production
from the households. Household consumes goods and services to satisfy their
wants and firms produce goods and services to make profits.

3.) GOVERNMENT SECTOR – it acts in two capacities, (a) as a welfare agency, it


is involved in maintaining law and order, defence and other services of public
welfare. (b) as a producer, it produces goods and services in public sector
enterprises.
4.) FOREIGN SECTOR/EXTERNAL SECTOR – it is also called as rest of the world.
This sector includes transactions with the rest of the world. It is involved in
export and import of goods and flow of capital between domestic economy and
other countries of the world.

On the basis of above content, we can say that there are two type of Economies

A.) OPEN ECONOMY – it is an economy which has economic relations with the
abroad. It includes four sector economy.

B.) closed Economy – it is an economy which has no economic relations with the
abroad. It involves two sector and three sector Economy. It doesnot includes
foreign sector.

CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME IN TWO SECTOR ECONOMY


A simple economy assumes the existence of only two sectors i.e
household sector and firm sector.

Households are the owners of factors and consumers of goods and


services whereas, producers produce goods and services and sell them
to households.

It is also known as closed economy and there is no involvement of


government and abroad.

ASSUMPTIONS OF CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME IN TWO SECTOR


ECONOMY;
1.) there are only two sectors in the economy i.e household and firm sector. There
is no government and abroad.

2.) household sector supplies factor services only to firms and firms hire factors
only from households.

3.) firms produce goods and services and sell the entire output to households.
4.) household receive factor income for their factor services and spend the entire
amount on consumption of goods and services.

5.) there are no savings in the economy which means neither the households
save from their income nor the firms save from their profits.

The outer loop is known as real flow and the inner loop is known as money flow.

Production phase

Distribution phase

disposition phase

LEAKAGES
It refers to withdrawal of money from the circular flow of income. When
households and firms save a part of their incomes , it leads to leakages in the
circular flow. It refers to that part of the income which do not pass through the
circular flow of income.

INJECTIONS
It refers to introduction of income into the circular flow of income. When
households and firms borrow money from financial institutions then it adds to
their income.

CONCLUSION OF CIRCULAR FLOW……

1.) Total production by firms = Total production by households.

2.) factor payments = factor incomes.

3.) consumption expenditure = factor incomes

4.) Real flow = Money flow.

NATIONAL PRODUCT is always equal to NATIONAL


INCOME? HOW

(very important)

ANS. National product means all final goods and services produced in an
economy during an accounting year. Money value of these goods and services
are distributed among the factors of production in the form of rent, wages,
salaries , interest and profits. Sum total of all these factor incomes are called
national income. So national product is always equal to national income.

SOME QUESTIONS OF CHAPTER 1ST;


Q.1) why flow of income is always circular in two sector economy?

ANS. In the circular flow of income, production generates factor income, which
is converted into expenditure. This flow of income always continue because
production is a continuous activity as human wants are unlimited. It makes
the flow of income circular.

Q.2) NATIONAL PRODUCT is always equal to NATIONAL INCOME? HOW

(very important)

ANS. National product means all final goods and services produced in an
economy during an accounting year. Money value of these goods and services
are distributed among the factors of production in the form of rent, wages,
salaries , interest and profits. Sum total of all these factor incomes are called
national income. So national product is always equal to national income.

Q.3) what are the contents of real flow?

ANS. factor flow and product flow

Q.4) capital and wealth is a stock while capital formation is flow?

ANS. True, capital and wealth is always measured at a particular point of time
while capital formation is measured over a period of time.

Q.5) what is the significance of circular flow of income? (read only)

ANS. 1.) it help us to understand the mutual interdependence among


different sectors. 2.) it shows equilibrium position of the economy. 3.) it
helps in identifying various types of leakages and injections. 4.) it helps in
estimation of national income
CHAPTER 2ND BASIC CONCEPTS OF MACRO

DOMESTIC TERRITORY –
DOMESTIC TERRITORY refers to political boundaries/political frontiers of a
country.

DOMESTIC TERRITORY includes the following;

A.) ships and aircrafts owned and operated by normal residents between two or
more countries will be considered under the Indian territory. For example planes
operated by AIR INDIA between Russia and JAPAN are part of domestic
territory of india.

B.) fishing vessels , oil and natural gas rigs and floating platforms operated
by Indian residents in the international waters are the part of domestic territory
of INDIA.

C.) embassies , consulates and military establishments of a country located


abroad will be considered under the domestic territory. For example Indian
embassy in Russia is a part of domestic territory of INDIA.

DOMESTIC TERRITORY DOES NOT INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING;

A.) embassy , consulates and military establishments of a foreign country in


our country will not be considered as the part of Indian territory. For example
Russian embassy in INDIA is a part of territory of RUSSIA.

B.) International organizations like UNO, WHO, WTO, WTC located in INDIA
but they are not considered as a part of domestic territory of INDIA as these
organizations belong to international boundary.

POINTS TO REMEMBER;
A.) embassy , consulates and military establishments of our country located
abroad but will be considered under the Indian territory. For example. Indian
embassy set up in Russia but will be considered under the Indian territory .
similarly American embassy set up in japan will be considered under
American territory.

B.) company , MNCs and banks of our country located abroad will be
considered under the territory of that foreign country in which it is established.
For example ;branch of Indian company set up in china is a part of territory of
CHINA.

In simple words….(HINDI)

Embassy, consulates and military jis country ke hote hai usi country ke mane
jate hai but, companies, banks and buildings jha setup hoti hai usi country ki
mani jati hai.)

IDENTIFY WHETHER THE FOLLOWING WILL BE CONSIDERED UNDER


INDIAN TERRITORY OR NOT;

4.) office of reliance in newyork

5.) branch of foreign bank in india

6.) Indian embassy in japan.

7.) branch of SBI in china

8.) Russian embassy in india.

NORMAL RESIDENTS
NORMAL RESIDENT refers to an individual or an institution who ordinarily
resides in the country for a period of one year or more and whose economic
interest also lies in that country.

FOLLOWING ARE NOT INCLUDED UNDER THE CATEGORY OF NORMAL


RESIDENTS;

1.) foreign tourists and visitors who visit a country for recreation, holidays,
medical treatment , study , sports and conferences etc. are not considered as the
normal residents of our country

2.) foreign staff of embassies , officials , diplomats and members of armed


forces of a foreign country will not be considered as the normal residents of our
country.

3.) International organizations will not be considered as the normal residents


of that country in which they operate because they are part of international
area.

4.) Employees of international organizations are considered as residents of


that country to which they belong but if their stay in India is for one year or
more then they will be considered as normal resident of INDIA.

For example; American working in WHO( set up in INDIA) will be considered as


normal resident of AMERICA but if that American is working in that WHO
for a period of 1 year or more then he will be considered as normal resident of
INDIA.

5.) crew members of foreign vessels , commercial travelers and seasonal workers
are not considered as normal residents provided that their stay in INDIA is for
less than one year.
6.) BORDER WORKERS who live near the international border and cross the
border on a regular basis for work, then they will be considered as normal
resident of that country in which they live not where they work.

CITIZENSHIP AND RESIDENTSHIP


CITIZENSHIP
It is a legal concept based on the place of birth of a person or some legal
provisions which allow a person to become a citizen.

INDIAN citizenship arises in two ways;

1.) when a person born in India then he automatically acquires the Indian
citizenship

2.) when a person born outside INDIA but applies for Indian citizenship.

RESIDENTSHIP
It is an economic concept based on the economic activities performed by a person.
An individual is a normal resident of our country if he ordinarily resides in
our country for a period of one year or more and his economic interest also lies
in our country.

It is possible that a person is citizen of one country and at the same time, he can
be the resident of other country. For example A chineese living in India for more
than 1 year, then, he will be taken as Indian resident but citizen will be of
CHINA.

FACTOR INCOME AND TRANSFER INCOME


FACTOR INCOME –
Factor income refers to the income received by factors of production for
rendering factor services in the production process.

It is received for providing factor services like land , labour , capital and
entrepreneurship. It will be included in the national income and domestic
income as it is related to productive activities.

Examples rent , wages , salary , interest , dividend and profits.

Bonus always considered as factor income whether it is received on any


occasion or due to part of job.

TRANSFER INCOME –
Transfer income refers to income received without rendering any productive
services in return. It is a unilateral i.e one – sided concept. It is not included in
national income and domestic income as it is just transfer of money from one
person to another , not related to any productive activities.

Examples ; old age pension, scholarships, unemployment allowance , pocket


money, widow pension, gifts, donations , charity, etc.

Taxes received by the government are transfer income for the government as
they are received without providing any productive services in return.
Similarly, subsidies paid by the government are transfer payments by the
government.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FACTOR INCOME AND TRANSFER INCOME

FINAL GOODS AND INTERMEDIATE GOODS


FINAL GOODS

Goods purchased for consumption All assets are final goods


Like milk whether purchased for home
Or office or school as it is an
investment.( except assets
purchased by dealer for sale and assets
purchased by military)
INTERMEDIATE GOODS
Goods purchased for further sale

Goods purchased for further production.

Goods purchased for further services

Above goods must be used with in the same year.

Assets purchased by dealer/showroom for further sale

Assets purchased by military for defence services

FINAL GOODS
FINAL goods refer to those goods which are used either for consumption or for
investment. It includes the following;

1.) goods purchased by households for final consumption like milk

2.) goods purchased by firm for capital formation or investment like


machinery , equipments etc.

Final goods have direct demand.

INTERMEDIATE GOODS
It refer to those goods which are used either for resale , further production or
further services within the same year.

It includes the following;

1.) Goods purchased for resale like milk purchased by a diary shop

2.)Goods purchased for further production like milk purchased by a sweets shop
3.)Goods purchased for further services like chalk and dusters used by a school.

IMPORTANT POINTS ABOUT INTERMEDIATE GOODS;

A.) they are generally purchased by one firm from another firm.

B.) they have derived demand as their demand depends on demand of final
goods.

C.) trucks, aircrafts , vehicles purchased by government for military purposes


are included under the category of intermediate goods as they are used for
defence services.

D.) value of intermediate goods is already included in the value of final goods
and thus it is not separately included in national income.

“It must be noted that assets even after providing services,


still be taken as final goods as they investments and do not
changes its form after providing services.”

PRODUCTION BOUNDARY
To understand the concept of final goods and intermediate goods , the concept of
production boundary is very significant.

As long as goods remain within the production boundary, they are intermediate
goods because further production is still possible.

But when goods crossed the production boundary , it means further production
is not possible so it will be considered as final goods.
CATEGORISE THE FOLLOWING ITEMS INTO FINAL AND INTERMEDIATE GOODS
WITH REASONS;
1.) paper purchased by a publisher 2.) furniture purchased by a school 3.) milk purchase by households 4.)
purchase of rice by a grocery shop 5.) coal used by a manufacturing firm 6.) computer installed in a office 7.) coal
used by consumer households 8.) mobile set purchased by a mobile dealer 9.) purchase of pulses by a consumer
10.) chalk, dusters purchased by a school 11.) fertilizers used by the farmers. 12.) printer purchased by a lawyer
13.) wheat used by the flour mill. 14.) unsold coal with the trader at the year end 15.) cotton used by a cloth mill.
16.) wheat used by households 17.) refrigerator installed in a firm. 18.) sugar used by a sweet shop

ANS. FINAL GOODS 2 , 3 , 6 , 7 , 9 , 12 , 14 , 16 , 17

FINAL GOODS

CONSUMPTION GOODS CAPITAL GOODS


CONSUMPTION GOODS –
Consumption goods refer to those goods which satisfy the wants of the
consumer directly. It is further divided into following categories;

1.) durable goods –


It refers to those goods which can be used again and again over a considerable
period of time. For example television, referigrator,etc

2.) semi durable goods –


Goods which can be used for a limited period of time are known as semi durable
goods. These goods generally have a life span of one year or less. For example
clothes, crockery, etc

3.) non durable goods –


Goods which are used up in a single act of consumption are known as non
durable goods. These goods cannot be used more than once. for example milk,
bread , apple , etc

4.) services –
Services refer to non material goods which directly satisfy the human wants.
They cannot be seen or touched. For example services of a doctor , teacher , etc

CAPITAL – GOODS
Capital goods are those final goods which help in production of other goods and
services. For example plant and machinery , equipments etc.

Some points about capital goods;

✓ They are used for productive services and have an expected life of several
years.
✓ They donot loose their identity in the production process
✓ They need repairment or replacement as they depreciate over a period of
time.
✓ They have derived demand.

NOTE;

It must be noted that all machines are not capital goods . it entirely depends on
its use that whether a machinery will be a capital good, consumption good or
intermediate good.

If a sewing machine is used by a household for personal use then that sewing
machine will be considered as final consumption good.

If that particular sewing machine is used by a tailor for further income


generation motive then it will be considered under final capital goods.

If that sewing machine is purchased by a dealer for further sale then it will be
considered as intermediate goods.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CONSUMPTION GOODS and CAPITAL GOODS

BASIS CONSUMPTION GOODS CAPITAL GOODS


MEANING it refers to those goods which it refers to those goods
Satisfy the wants of the which is used for further
Consumers directly income generation.

Nature of they have direct demand they have derived


demand Demand

Inclusion it includes goods , services it includes assets only


As well as assets

Production they do not promote any it helps in raising


Production capacity production capacity
QUESTION: ALL PRODUCER GOODS ARE NOT CAPITAL GOODS, WHY?
ANS: producer goods are those goods which are used for production of other
goods. It includes.. raw-material and machinery.

Machinery is a capital goods as it is an asset but raw-material is not an assets


and thus raw-material cannot be taken as capital goods.

So, we can say that, all producer goods are not capital goods.

CONCEPT OF INVESTMENT , DEPRECIATION


AND CAPITAL LOSS
INVESTMEMT or capital formation refers to addition to the capital stock of
economy.

GROSS INVESTMENT refers to addition to the stock of capital in an economy


before adjusting for depreciation.

NET INVESTMENT refers to actual addition made to the capital stock of


economy.

GROSS INVESTMENT – DEPRECIATION = NET INVESTMENT

DEPRECIATION refers to fall in the value of fixed assets due to normal wear and
tear , passage of time and change in technology.

IT occurs due to following 3 reasons;

1.) normal wear and tear means continuous use of assets

2.) passage of time.

3.) change in technology.(expected obsolescence)


It must be noted as expected obsolescence is depreciation while unexpected
obsolescence is capital loss.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DEPRECIATION AND CAPITAL LOSS

BASIS DEPRECIATION CAPITAL LOSS

Meaning it refers to fall in the it refers to loss in the value of


Value of fixed assets fixed assets due to unforeseen
Due to normal wear and activities like theft , accident,
Tear, passage of time natural calamity etc.
And change in technology.

NATURE OF it is an expected loss it is an unexpected loss


LOSS

PROVISION provision is made for no such provision is made


FOR LOSS repairmen or replacement
Of assets.

HAMPER THE it does not hamper the it hampers the process of


PROCESS production process production.

QUESTION: what is depreciation reserve fund?


ANS: depreciation means fall in the value of fixed assets due to various reasons
like normal wear and tear. Because of depreciation, fixed assets need to be
replaced from time to time. Replacement of fixed assets need funds. For the
funds, company make a provision for depreciation.

For example: if value of machine is 1,00,000 and depreciation is 10% and life of
machine is 10 years. So, every year 10,000 Rs. will be transferred to
depreciation reserve fund to replace the machinery after 10 years. Depreciation
reserve funds is also called as provision for depreciation.
NET INDIRECT TAXES (N.I.T)
Must read the following;

A.) MP means market price i.e the selling price of commodity

B.) FC means factor cost i.e expenses to manufacture a commodity

C.) indirect taxes means taxes levied on goods

D.) subsidies refers to financial help given by government

E.) NIT means net indirect taxes i.e difference of indirect taxes and subsidies.

NET INDIRECT TAXES refers to difference between indirect taxes and


subsidies.

INDIRECT TAXES refers to those taxes which are imposed by the government on
production and sale of goods and services like GST

SUBSIDIES refers to financial assistance provided by the government for


production of a certain commodity.

MARKET PRICE(MP) means the price at which product is actually sold in the
market.

FACTOR COST(FC) refers to amount paid to the factors for their contribution
in the production process.

NOTE;

IF indirect taxes and subsidies are equal then N.I.T will be zero. So, market
price and factor cost will be equal

If indirect taxes are more than subsidies, N.I.T is positive, then Market price
will be more than factor cost
If indirect taxes are less than subsidies, then N.I.T is negative, then Market
price will be less than factor cost

IT MUST BE NOTED THAT:

MP – IT + SUBSIDIES = FC

NFIA ( NET FACTOR INCOME FROM ABROAD)


Must read the following;

+ Factor income received from abroad

Domestic income = national income

- Factor income paid to abroad

Factor income rec. from abroad - factor income paid to abroad = NFIA

NFIA refers to the difference between factor income received from abroad and
factor income paid to abroad.

FACTOR INCOME RECEIVED FROM ABROAD refers to income earned by


normal residents of a country from abroad in the form of wages , salaries,
interest , profits, dividends, etc

FACTOR INCOME PAID TO ABROAD refers to the income paid to the normal
residents of other countries for their services in our country.

COMPONENTS OF NFIA (VERY IMPORTANT)

1.) net compensation to employees – it refers to difference between income


received by resident workers from working abroad and income paid to non-
resident workers working in our country.
2.) net income from entrepreneurship and property – it refers to difference
between income from rent, interest and dividends received by residents of our
country and payment of rent, interest and dividends paid to non-residents
abroad.

3.) net retained earnings – it refers to difference between retained earnings of


our company located abroad and retained earnings of foreign companies located
in India. Retained earnings means part of profits kept as reserves.

NOTE;

If factor income received from abroad is equal to factor income paid to abroad,
then NFIA is zero and thus national income equals to domestic income.

If factor income received from abroad is more than factor income paid to
abroad, then NFIA is positive and thus national income is more than domestic
income.

If factor income received from abroad is less than factor income paid to
abroad, then NFIA is negative and thus national income is less than domestic
income.

ANS. False, the concept of normal resident applies to institutions also.

Q.3) in final goods, no value is to be added?

ANS. True final goods have crossed the production boundary and now cannot be used for further
production.

Q.4) purchases by one firm from another firm is always an intermediate goods.
ANS. FALSE, if one firm purchases input from another firm for further production of goods then it is
called intermediate goods. While if one firm purchases assets from another firm like machinery then
even it is used for further production but it will be considered as final goods.

Value of output - intermediate consumption = GDPmp / GVAmp

OR

Sales + self consumption + change in stock – intermediate consumption =


GDPmp / GVAmp

OR

Domestic sales +self consumption + exports – domestic purchases – imports


+ change in stock = GDPmp / GVAmp

NOTE;

Change in stock = closing stock – opening stock

Addition to stock means change in stock will be added

Fall in stock means change in stock will be deducted

Another names of intermediate consumption are;

Purchases
Purchase of raw material

Purchase of fuel , power and labour

But , purchase of assets and machinery will not be considered as intermediate


consumption.

THEORY OF VALUE ADDED METHOD –

RAW-MATERIAL VALUE ADDITION FINAL GOODS

200 Rs. intermediate 600 Rs.


400 Rs.
conumption
Value of output

VALUE ADDED refers to addition of value to the raw material by a firm during
the production process.

Value added = value of output – intermediate consumption

Suppose a bakery needs flour to produce bread. He purchases flour as input


worth Rs. 200 and converts the flour into bread and sell the bread for Rs.600.

So flour is considered as input means intermediate consumption and bread is


considered as final goods means value of output. So value addition will be
400Rs.

INTERMEDIATE CONSUMPTION refers to use of intermediate goods in the


production process . in the above example flour is the intermediate consumption.

VALUE OF OUTPUT
Value of output refers to market value of all goods and services produced during
a period of one year.
Value of output = sales + change in stock + self consumption

STEPS OF VALUE ADDED METHOD;

STEP 1 – IDENTIFY AND CLASSIFY THE PRODUCTION UNITS

The first step is to identify and classify all the producing units into primary ,
secondary and tertiary sectors.

STEP 2 – ESTIMATE GDPmp

In the second step gross value added at market price means GVAmp of each
sector will be calculated and sum total of GVAmp of all sectors give GDPmp of
economy.

STEP 3 – CALCULATE DOMESTIC INCOME (NDP fc)

By subtracting the amount of depreciation and net indirect taxes from GDPmp
we will get domestic income i.e NDPfc

STEP 4 – ESTIMATE NFIA TO ARRIVE AT NATIONAL INCOME (NNPfc)

In the final step NFIA will be added in domestic income to arrive at national
income (NNPfc)

GVAmp of primary sector

+ GVAmp of secondary sector

+ GVAmp of tertiary sector

GDPmp

- DEPRECIATION
- NET INDIRECT TAXES

NDPfc ( domestic income)

+ NFIA

NNPfc ( national income)


PRECAUTIONS OF VALUE ADDED METHOD –
1.) INTERMEDIATE GOODS are not to be included in national income because
its value is already included in the value of final goods and if they will be
included again then It will lead to double counting.

2.) sale and purchase of second hand goods in not to be included in


national income as there value has already been included during their original
purchase

However , brokerage and commission paid on such transactions will be included


in national income as it is related to productive service of current year.

3.) services for self consumption means domestic services will not be included in
national income as it is difficult to calculate its market value. For example
services of housewife and mother, kitchen gardening etc.

HOWEVER, paid services of maids, drivers, etc will be included as they are
charging something for their services.

4.) production of goods for self consumption will be included in national


income as they contribute to current output and its market value can be easily
measured.

5.) change in stock of goods(inventory) will be included in national income as


it is a part of capital formation i.e investment

6.) imputed rent of owner occupied house , imputed interest on own capital will
be included in national income as it is related to productive activities.

CONCEPT OF DOUBLE COUNTING


While calculating the national income , only the value of final goods and
services is to be included because the value of intermediate goods is already
included in the value of final goods.
The problem of double counting arises when value of intermediate goods is
again included in the national income.

Double counting refers to counting of an output more than once during the
production process.

COTTON THREADS SHIRTS consumers

Rs. 1000 Rs. 5000 Rs. 12000

IN the above flow chart , a person produces cotton worth Rs. 1000 and sell them
to a company for making threads worth Rs. 5000.

( here cotton is an intermediate for making threads)

Now, threads are further sold to a firm for making shirts worth Rs. 12000 and
shirts are consumed by final users i.e consumers. ( here thread is an
intermediate good for making shirts)

While calculating the national income , only the value of shirts is to be


included as value of cotton and threads is already included in the value of
shirt.

HOW TO AVOID DOUBLE COUNTING;

1.) FINAL OUTPUT METHOD –

According to this method , value of only final goods is to be included to


determine the national income. In the above case value of shirts i.e 12000 will be
included in national income.

2.) VALUE ADDED METHOD –


According to this method , value addition by each producing unit should be
taken taken to determine the national income. In the above case, value of input
is 1000 , first value addition is of 4000 Rs from cotton to threads and next
value addition is 7000 Rs. from threads to shirts.

Sum total of all these will be included in national income i.e 12000 Rs.

METHOD NO. 2ND


INCOME – METHOD/ distributive share method/
factor payment method
FORMULA –
COMPENSATION + OPERATING SURPLUS +MIXED INCOME = NDPfc
OF EMPLOYEES OF SELF EMPLOYED

CPMPENSATION OF EMPLOYEES WILL BE CALCULATED AS;

Wages and salaries in cash + wages and salaries in kind( vouchers, coupons ,
rent free house etc) + employer’s contribution in social security schemes +
retirement pension

OPERATING SURPLUS WILL BE CALCULATED AS;

Rent + royalty + interest + profits

In which profits = corporate savings + corporate dividend + corporate taxes.

Another name of corporate savings;

Undistributed profits or retained earnings.

THEORY OF INCOME METHOD;


1.) compensation of employees –

It refers to amount paid to employees by employer for rendering services. In


includes the following;

a.) wages and salaries in cash which includes all monetary benefits like wages
salaries bonus , commission, etc

b.) wages and salaries in kind which includes all non monetary benefits like
rent free house , free medical facilities etc.

c.) employers contribution to social security schemes like LIC , retirement


pension , provident funds , etc

2.) operating surplus

A) RENT and ROYALTY –

Rent is that part of national income which arises from ownership of land and
building where as , royalty refers to income received for granting patent rights .

B) INTEREST –

Interest refers to amount received for lending funds to a production unit.

It must be noted that;

a.) interest paid by one firm to another firm will not be included in national
income as it is the intermediate payment.

b.) if loan is taken for production purpose then its interest will be included in
national income as it related to productive activities.

c.) if loan is taken for consumption purpose then its interest will not be
included in national income as it is not related to any productive activities.
d) payment made by a firm to a CA or LAWYER will not be included in
national income as it is the intermediate payment.

e) interest received on deposits made by individuals or firms into banks will be


included in national income as such deposits are used for productive uses.

C) PROFITS –

Profit is a reward for the entrepreneur for his contribution in the production
process. It includes the following;

a.) corporate taxes b.) corporate dividend c.) corporate savings( undistributed
profits/ retained earnings)

3.) mixed income of self employed –

It is the income generated by own account workers. For example ; income of a


doctor running his clinic at his residence. It is the term used for any income
that has elements of more than one type of factor income. Mixed income arises
from productive services of self employed people whose income includes ages,
rent, interest, profits, etc and these elements cannot be separated from each
other.

STEPS OF INCOME METHOD


Step 1 identify and classify the production units

All the producing units are identified and classified into primary , secondary
and tertiary sectors.

Step 2 estimate the factor income paid by each sector

The factor income paid by each sector are classified under

a.) compensation of employees b.) rent and royalty c.) interest d.) profits e.)
mixed income of self employed.
Step 3 calculate domestic income NDPfc

When factor income of all the sectors are summed up we get , domestic income
i.e NDPfc

Step 4 estimate NFIA for national income i.e NNPfc

in the final step , NFIA will be added in domestic income to calculate the
national income.

Compensation to employees

EXPENDITURE METHOD / Income disposal Method/
consumption and investment method.
FORMULA –

consumption expenditure or household final consumption expenditure.

2.) Government final consumption expenditure is also known as government


purchase of goods and services.

3.)Net exports will be calculated as EXPORTS - IMPORTS

If net imports are given then it will be deducted.

4.) GROSS DOMESTIC CAPITAL FORMATION WILL BE CALCULATED


AS;

NET DOMESTIC FIXED GROSS PUBLIC INVESTMENT


CAPITAL FORMATION + GROSS RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION
+ DEPRECIATION ( OR) INVESTMENT
+ CHANGE IN STOCK + GROSS BUSINESS FIXED
INVESTMENT
+ CHANGE IN STOCK

THEORY OF EXPENDITURE METHOD ;

1.) PRIVATE FINAL CONSUMPTION EXPENDITURE –

expenditure c) gross domestic capital formation d) net exports

sum total of all these will be equal to GDPmp

STEP 3 CALCULATE DOMESTIC INCOME (NDPfc) –

By subtracting the amount of depreciation and net indirect taxes from GDPmp
, we will get domestic income NDPfc
STEP 4 ESTIMATE NFIA TO ARRIVE AT NATIONAL INCOME (NNPfc) –

With the addition of NFIA under the domestic income , we will arrive at
national income (NNPfc)

Private final consumption expenditure


+ government final consumption expenditure
+ gross domestic capital formation
+ net exports

NOMINAL AND REAL NATIONAL INCOME
NOMINAL NATIONAL INCOME (NNPfc at current prices)
It refers to the money value of final goods and services produced by normal
residents of a country during an accounting year , measured at current year
prices. Suppose current year is 2018 -19. It does not show the true picture of
economic growth of a country because any increase in nominal national
income is due to change in prices.

REAL NATIONAL INCOME (NNPfc at constant prices)


it is the money value of final goods and services produced by normal residents
of a country in a year measured at base year prices. Base year is a normal year
which is free from price fluctuations. Presently 2011-12 is taken as base year
in india. It shows the true picture of economic growth as increase in real
national income is only due to rise in output not due to rise in prices.

At current prices constant prices.

REAL NATIONAL INCOME = NOMINAL NATIONAL INCOME X 100

CURRENT PRICE INDEX

NOMINAL GDP AND REAL GDP


NOMINAL GDP OR GDP at current prices
when GDP of a given year is estimated on the basis of the price of same year, it
is called nominal GDP.

REAL GDP OR GDP at constant prices


when GDP of a given year is estimated on the basis of price of base year , it is
called real GDP.

 Price of base year is equal to price of current year, then , real GDP is equal
to nominal GDP.
 Price of base year is less than price of current year , real GDP is less than
nominal GDP.
 Price of base year is more than price of current year , real GDP is more
than nominal GDP.

REAL GDP IS BETTER THAN NOMINAL GDP

Real GDP is better than nominal GDP because of following reasons;


1.) real GDP helps in determining the effect of increased production of goods
and services as it is affected by change in output only,where as nominal GDP
can even increase without increase in output because it is affected by change in
prices.

2.) real GDP is a better tool to make periodic comparisons of output over
different years.

3.) real GDP is a better tool to facilitate international comparison of economic


performance of output across the countries.

REAL GDP = NOMINAL GDP X100

CURRENT PRICE INDEX

GDP DEFLATOR
GDP deflator measures the average level of prices of all goods and services that
make up GDP.

GDP deflator or PRICE INDEX = nominal GDP x 100

Real GDP

QUES.1) If real GDP is 12000 and nominal GDP is 15000 , then calculate GDP
deflator and what does this indicate?

GDP deflator is 15000 x 100 = 125.

12000

Base is 100 and GDP deflator is 125 , so price rises by 25%.

QUES 2.) if real GDP is 3000 and nominal GDP is 2500 . calculate GDP
deflator and what does this indicate?

GDP deflator is 2500 x 100 = 83.3

3000

Base is 100 and GDP deflator is 83.3. so prices fall by 16.67%


GDP AND WELFARE VERY IMPORTANT
GDP is often considered as an index of welfare. Welfare means sense of material
well- being among the people. However, there are some limitations of the above
mentioned line.

1.) DISTRIBUTION OF GDP


It is possible that with rise in GDP, inequalities also rises means the gap between
rich and poor increases. GDP does not take into account changes in inequalities
in the distribution of income. It means welfare may not arise with rise in GDP
if there is increase in inequalities along with it.

2.) CHANGE IN PRICES


If increase in GDP is due to rise in prices and not due to rise in physical output
then it will not be a reliable index of welfare.

3.) NON MONETARY TRANSACTIONS/ BARTER TRANSACTIONS.


Many activities in an economy are not calculated in monetary terms like
services of mother , a parent teaching his own child , etc . these transactions are
not included in GDP however it affect the economic welfare.

4.) RATE OF POPULATION GROWTH


GDP does not consider the changes in population growth of a country. If rate of
population growth is higher than the rate of growth of GDP , then it will reduce
the per capita availability of goods and services which will adversely affect the
economic welfare.

5.) EXTERNALITIES
Externalities refer to benefits or harms of an activity caused by a firm or an
individual for which he is not paid. Activities which results in benefit to others
are called positive externalities and activities which result in harm to others are
called negative externalities.
Environment pollution caused by industries are considered as negative
externalities which reduces the economic welfare but GDP does not take into
account all these externalities

Use of public parks by the people will improve their health is the positive
externalities and it will increase the economic welfare but GDP does not take
into account all these externalities.

6.) COMPOSITION OF GDP – Composition of GDP always affect the welfare of


country. If GDP of our country is increasing due to goods like wheat, Rice, etc
then along with GDP welfare will also increase. However, if GDP of our country
is increasing due to goods like liquor, cigarette, tobacco, war goods, etc then
GDP will increase but welfare will not increase.

WHAT IS GREEN GNP/GDP?

ANS. It measures GDP and national income of our country adjusted for the
depletion of natural resources and degradation of the environment. It will help
to attain a sustainable use of natural environment. Higher the Green GNP
signifies higher sustainable development.

CHAPTER 5TH MONEY


BARTER exchange refers to exchange of goods for goods. It is also known as
C – C economy , where C stands for commodity.

MONEY is anything which is generally accepted as a medium of exchange,


measure of value , store of value and standard of deferred payments.

LIMITATIONS OF BARTER SYSTEM

1.) LACK OF DOUBLE COINCIDENCE OF WANTS –


Barter system can work only when both buyer and seller are ready to exchange
goods of each other. For example if A can exchange goods with B only when A
has what B wants and B has what A wants.

2.) LACK OF MEASURE OF VALUE/ LACK OF UNIT OF ACCOUNT –


In the barter system all the commodities are not of equal value and there is no
common measure for valuation of goods and services. For example if A has
wheat and B has rice then it is difficult to decide that how much wheat is needed
to exchange with 1 kg of rice.

3.) LACK OF STORE OF VALUE / LACK OF ASSET FUNCTION –


Under barter system , it is difficult for people to store wealth for future use
because most of the goods are perishable in nature and their quality decreases
with the passage of time. As a result , goods cannot be used to store the earnings
for a long period.

4.) LACK OF STANDARD OF DEFERRED PAYMENTS –


Under barter system , contracts involving future transactions or credit
transactions cannot take place easily because the borrower may not be able to
arrange goods exactly of same quality at the time of repayment. So it is very
difficult to make deferred payments in the form of goods.

5.) LACK OF DIVISIBILITY –


Another drawback of barter system is lack of divisibility power in goods.
Unlike money goods do not possess divisibility power. Suppose if a person is
ready to sell a horse for 100 kg of wheat, so, a person carry 50kg of wheat
cannot buy the half horse with same value as earlier.

DEFINITION OF MONEY

MONEY is anything which is generally accepted as a medium of exchange,


measure of value, store of value and standard of deferred payments.

The term money is used to cover all such things like notes, coins, etc which are
used to conduct all transactions and settlement of business claims.

FUNCTIONS OF MONEY –

1.) MEDIUM OF EXCHANGE – money as a medium of exchange means that it


can be used to make payments for all transactions of goods and services.

2.) MEASURE OF VALUE – Money as a measure of value means that money


works as a common denomination in which value of goods and services can be
expressed.

3.) STORE OF VALUE – money as a store of value means that money can be
used to transfer purchasing power from present to future.

4.) STANDARD OF DEFERRED PAYMENTS – it means that money acts as a


standard of payments which are to be made in future.

It must be noted that first two are primary functions and rest are
secondary functions.

LEGAL DEFINITION OF MONEY

1.) LEGAL TENDER MONEY – Money which can be legally used to make
payment of debts is called legal tender money.
a) Limited legal tender – It refers to that form of legal tender money which
can be paid in discharge of a debt up to a certain limit. In India coins are
limited legal tender money as coins can be used up to a limit and beyond that
it can be refused by a person to accept it.

b) Unlimited legal tender – It refers to that form of legal tender money which
can be paid in discharge of a debt of any amount without any limit. In India
Notes are unlimited legal tender Money. As per coinage act 2011, coins shall be
legal tender for sum not exceeding Rs. 1000.

2.) NON- LEGAL TENDER MONEY – it is also called optional money. It refers to
that form of money which is generally accepted but legally no one is bound to
accept it. For example cheques, demand drafts, etc.

BANK MONEY refers to demand deposits created by the commercial banks.


These deposits are repayable by the banks on demand. The depositors are given
cheques facility to withdraw money from their account. Bank money is a part
of non-legal tender money or optional money.

MONEY SUPPLY
Money supply refers to total volume of money held by the public at a particular
point of time in an economy.

It includes money held by public only and does not include the money of
money creating sector like government. Here public means individuals and
firms and does not include the money of banking sector and government.

Money supply is a stock concept as it is concerned with particular point of time.

MEASUREMENT OF MONEY SUPPLY

M1 = C + DD + OD
Here , C means currency , DD means demand deposits with banks and OD
means other deposits with RBI.

CURRENCY – it consist of paper notes and coins held by the public. Any
currency held with the government and banks will not be included here.
Currency money is also known as fiat money or legal tender money. Fiat
money or legal tender money means money is accepted for the payments of all
debts and everyone is bound to accept it.

DEMAND DEPOSITS –

It refers to demand deposits of the public with the commercial banks. It refers to
those deposits which can be encashed at anytime by issuing cheque.

IT must be noted that only net demand deposits are included i.e money
deposited by public in banks which can be withdrawn at anytime are included
in it but inter-bank deposits are not included in it. Inter-bank deposits means
deposits held by banks on behalf of other banks.

While calculating money supply, only net demand deposits are taken into
account.

It should also be noted that term or fixed deposits are also not included in the
definition of demand deposits.

OTHER DEPOSITS –

It includes deposits held by the RBI on behalf of foreign banks and foreign
government , world bank and international monetary fund.

It must be noted that M1 is also known as transaction money


EFFECT OF DEMONETISATION ON MONEY SUPPLY –

Money supply is calculated as C + DD + OD

So old currency deposited by the public will reduce the currency held by the
public but the same money will be deposited with the bank so, DD will be
increased by same amount. So there will be no effect on money supply.

However , if some amount is not re enter into the system i.e black money so
money supply will be reduced by same amount.

OTHER MEASUREMENTS OF MONEY SUPPLY ARE:

M1 = Currency + Demand deposits + other deposits

M2 = M1 + savings deposits with post office saving bank

M3 = M1 + Net time deposits with banks

M4 = M3 + total deposits with post office saving bank excluding National savings
certificates.

IMPORTANT FACTS;

1.) all these measurements of money supply shows different level of liquidity.
Here M1 is the most liquid and M4 is the least liquid.

2.) M3 is widely used for measurement of money supply and called as aggregate
monetary resources of the society.

3.) M1 and M2 are called narrow money supply concepts and M3 and M4 are
called broad money supply concepts.

IMPORTANT QUESTIONS OF THIS CHAPTER

Q.1) M1 includes which demand deposits?


Ans. M1 includes only net demand deposits and not the gross demand
deposits. It means inter-bank deposits are not included while calculating the
money supply.

Q.2) money supply does not include money held by govt and banks, WHY?

Ans. Because there money do not come into actual circulation in the country.

Q.3) WHY M1 is also known as transaction money?

ANS. Because it can be directly used for making transactions

Q.4) what is legal tender money or fiat money?

ANS. Money which can be legally used to make payments of debts or other
obligations. Fiat money means which is under the order of govt. to act as
money.

Q.5) what is high powered money?

(VERY VERY IMPORTANT)

ANS. High powered money is money produced by the


RBI and the govt. it consist of two things

Currency held by the public and cash reserves of


banks.
CHAPTER 6TH BANKING
COMMERCIAL BANK is an institution which performs the function of
accepting deposits, granting loans and making investments with the aim of
earning profits.

Central bank is an apex body that controls , operates , regulates and directs the
entire banking and monetary system of the country. Central bank of INDIA is
RBI ( RESERVE BANK OF INDIA). RBI was established on 1 st April1935
under the RBI act 1934.

DEPOSITS ACCEPTED BY COMMERCIAL BANKS

Or PRIMARY FUNCTION OF COMMERCIAL BANKS –

1.) SAVINGS ACCOUNT-

It refers to those deposits which are maintained by households. The depositors are
given cheque facility to withdraw money from their account but some
restrictions are imposed on number and amount of withdrawals. They carry a
rate of interest which is less than rate on FD.

2.) CURRENT ACCOUNT/ DEMAND DEPOSITS –

It refers to those deposits which are repayable by banks on demand. Such


deposits are generally maintained by businessmen with the intention of
making regular transactions. They can be drawn upon a cheque without any
restriction.

Banks do not pay any interest on this account , rather banks impose a service
charge for running these accounts.

3.) FIXED DEPOSITS/TIME DEPOSITS –


It refer to those deposits in which the amount is deposited with the bank for a
fixed period of time. Such deposits do not enjoy cheque facility but carries a
high rate of interest.

IMPORTANT CONCEPTS –
1.) CRR (cash reserve ratio) – it refers to that percentage of total deposits which is
required to be maintained by the commercial banks with the RBI . it is
mandatory to be maintained in cash only.

2.) SLR (statutory liquidity ratio) - it refers to that percentage of total deposits
which is required to be maintained by the commercial banks with themselves . it
can be maintained in cash as well as in other liquid assets.

3.) REPO RATE (REPURCHASE - RATE) – repo rate is that rate of interest at which
RBI lends money to commercial banks to meet their short term requirements.

4.) BANK RATE ( DISCOUNT – RATE) -– bank rate is that rate of interest at
which RBI lends money to commercial banks to meet their long term
requirements

5.) REVERSE REPO RATE – it refers to that rate of interest at which commercial
banks park their surplus money with RBI. It is also called as reverse repurchase
rate.

FUNCTIONS OF CENTRAL BANK (RBI)-


1.) CURRENCY AUTHORITY FUNCTION (BANK OF ISSUE)-

Central bank has the sole authority for issue of currency in the country. In
INDIA , RBI has the sole monopoly power to issue currency notes of Rs.2 and
above. All the currency issued by central bank is its monetary liability i.e RBI
is under obligation to back the currency with the assets of equal value.

Advantage of sole monopoly power to issue currency is that

(a)it leads to uniformity in note circulation ,

(b)RBI can control the money supply in economy and

(c)it ensures public faith in the currency system.

(d) it helps in stabilization of value of currency.

2.) BANKER TO THE GOVERNMENT –

RBI acts as banker , agent and a financial advisor to the central government
and state governments.

• As a banker , RBI carries out all the banking business of the government
and RBI maintains a current account for keeping their cash balances.
• As an agent , RBI also has the responsibility of managing the public
debt.
• As a financial advisor , RBI advises the government from time to time on
various economic and monetary matters.

3.) CONTROLLER OF MONEY SUPPLY –

RBI controls the money supply and credit in best interest of the economy.

During inflation( which occurs due to high level of demand) , RBI restricts the
flow of credit in the economy by using various instruments.

Where as during deflation ( which occurs due to low level of demand) , RBI
encourages the flow of credit in the economy by using some instruments.

4.) CUSTODIAN OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE –


RBI acts as the custodian of country’s stock of gold and foreign exchange .
with this function , RBI can easily take a reasonable control on foreign
exchange rate and can maintain stability in economy. It must be noted that all
the foreign exchange transactions must be routed through RBI.

5.) BANKER’S BANK AND SUPERVISOR –

There are number of commercial banks in a country. So there must be some


agency to regulate and supervise their proper functioning. Being the apex bank,
RBI acts as banker to the commercial banks.

As a supervisor , RBI regulates and controls the commercial banks related to


licensing , branch expansion , liquidity of assets , management , merging ,
winding up , etc.

5(A) CUSTODIAN OF CASH RESERVES –

Commercial banks are required to maintain a certain proportion of their


deposits with RBI with the name of CRR ( cash reserve ratio ). In this way , RBI
acts as custodian of cash reserves.

5 (B) LENDER OF LAST RESORT –

when commercial banks fail to meet their financial requirements from any
source then they can approach the central bank to give loans and advances as
lender of last resort . RBI provide these loans and advances against some
securities.

5 (C) CLEARING HOUSE –

RBI holds cash reserves of all commercial banks , it becomes easier and
convenient for RBI to act as clearing house . All commercial banks have their
account with RBI, so, RBI can easily settle their claims against each other by
making debit and credit entries in their CRR account.
MONEY CREATION / CREDIT CREATION
OR HOW COMMERCIAL BANKS CREATE CREDIT IN
THE ECONOMY , EXPLAIN WITH THE HELP OF
MONEY MULTIPLIER
Through the process of money creation , commercial banks are able to create
credit which is in far excess of initial deposits.

This process can be better understood with the help of following assumptions;

1.) the entire commercial banking system is one unit and known as banks

2.) all the transactions are routed through banks means all the payments are
made through cheque.

3.) banks cannot use the whole money of deposit for lending. It is legally
compulsory for the banks to keep a certain amount of their deposits as reserves
known as LRR (legal reserve ratio) / reserve deposit ratio / reserve ratio.

LET US NOW UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS OF CREDIT CREATION


WITH A NUMERICAL EXAMPLE –

• Suppose initial deposits in bank are RS. 1000 and LRR is 20% . it
means banks are required to keep Rs. 200 as reserves and free to lend
remaining 800 Rs. banks never lend money in cash, rather bank opens
the account in the name of borrower and borrower is free to withdraw the
amount anytime .
• Suppose borrower withdraw the entire amount of Rs. 800 for making
payments. As all the transactions are routed through banks , so, the
money spent by the borrower comes back into the bank in the form of
deposits by the person who received such amount.
• With new deposits of Rs. 800 , banks keep 20% as cash reserves and lend
the remaining balance of 640Rs. borrower uses this amount for making
payments which again comes back into the bank in the form of deposits
by the person who received such amount.
• The deposits keeps on increasing in every round by 80% and at the same
time cash reserves of bank are also increasing. Deposit creation comes to
end when total of reserves become equal to initial deposits.

Deposits LRR LOANS

Initial deposits 1000 200 800

Round I 800 160 640

Round II 640 128 512

- - - -

- - - -

- - - -

Total 5000 1000 4000

MONEY MULTIPLIER –
Money multiplier or deposit multiplier measures the amount of money that the
banks are able to create in the form of deposits with every unit of money kept as
reserves.

MONEY MULTIPLIER = 1

%LRR

So it will be 1/20% = 5 times.

It means with every unit of money kept as reserves, banks are able to create 5 units of
money.

Commercial banks lend money mainly to investors. The rise in investment leads to rise in
national income with the multiplier effect.

QUANTITATIVE INSTRUMENTS OF CREDIT CONTROL BY RBI

1.) BANK RATE/REPO RATE –


Bank rate refers to that rate of interest at which RBI lends money to
commercial banks for meeting their long term requirements whereas , repo rate
refers to that rate of interest at which RBI lends money to commercial banks for
meeting their short term requirements.

Due to increase in repo rate and bank rate , the cost of borrowings of the
commercial banks will increase. It forces the commercial banks to increase the
market rate of interest and thus it will reduce the lending capacity of
commercial banks. This policy is favorable during inflation.

Due to fall in repo rate and bank rate , the cost of borrowings of the commercial
banks will decrease. commercial banks thus reduces the market rate of interest
and thus it will rise the lending capacity of commercial banks. This policy is
favorable during deflation.

2.) OPEN MARKET OPERATIONS –


Open market operations refers to buying and selling of government securities
by the RBI in the open market.
Sale of securities by the RBI to the commercial banks will reduce the cash
reserves of commercial banks and thus banks will provide less credit in the
economy and this policy is adopted during inflation.

Purchase of securities by RBI from commercial banks will increase the cash
balance of commercial banks and thus banks can provide more credit in the
economy and this policy is basically adopted during deflation .

3.) CRR and SLR –


CRR refers to that percentage of total deposits that the commercial banks are
required to maintain with RBI where as SLR refers to that percentage of total
deposits which the commercial banks are required to maintain with themselves.

During inflation , RBI will increase the percentage of CRR and SLR. With this
increase in CRR and SLR , banks will be able to provide less credit in the
economy and thus flow of money will reduce in the economy.

During deflation , RBI will reduce the percentage of CRR and SLR , with this
effect commercial banks will be able to provide more credit in the economy and
thus flow of money supply will increase.

4.) REVERSE REPO RATE –


It refers to that rate of interest at which commercial banks can park their
surplus money with RBI. RBI uses this tool during excess money supply in the
economy or during inflation.

In this , RBI will increase the percentage of reverse repo rate , so that commercial
banks will park more money to RBI for such attractive rate of interest and with
this, commercial banks will be able to provide less credit in the economy.
QUALITATIVE INSTRUMENTS OF CREDIT CONTROL BY RBI
1.) MARGIN REQUIREMNT –

Margin refers to the difference between amount of loan and value of security
offered against loan. Suppose if RBI fixed the % of margin as 40 % then
commercial banks can provide only 60% of loan of the value of security.

During inflation , RBI will increase the percentage of margin so that


commercial banks can provide less credit in the economy and thus flow of
money supply will reduce

Whereas during deflation, RBI will reduce the percentage of margin so that
banks can provide more credit in the economy and flow of money supply will
increase.

Margin is necessary because if banks will provide loan up to full value of


security then bank will suffer loss if value of security will fall.

2.) MORAL SUASION-

It is a combination of persuasion and pressure that RBI applies on commercial


banks in order to get them act in a manner in line with the policy of RBI. Moral
suasion is exercised through discussions , letters , speeches and hints to banks.
RBI frequently announces its policy position and request the banks to
implement these policies.

During inflation, RBI advises the commercial banks to discourage the flow of
credit in the economy whereas during deflation, RBI advises the commercial
banks to advance more credit in the economy.

3.) SELECTIVE CREDIT CONTROL (CREDIT RATIONING) –

Under selective credit control , RBI gives direction to commercial banks to give
or not to give credit to particular sectors. This method can be applied in positive
as well as negative manner.
During inflation, RBI introduces the policy of credit rationing in order to
prevent the flow of credit in the economy whereas, during deflation, RBI
withdraws the policy of credit rationing in order to encourage the flow of credit
in the economy.

QUANTITATIVE VS QUALITATIVE
 Quantitative instruments are general in nature and affect all the sectors where as qualitative
instruments are specific in nature and affect only particular sectors.
 Quantitative instruments are designed to regulate the volume of credit and qualitative instruments
are designed to regulate the direction of credit.
 Quantitative instruments are also known as traditional methods where as qualitative instruments
are known as selective methods.

IMPORTANT QUESTIONS OF THIS CHAPTER.

Q.1) calculate the value of money multiplier and total deposits, if initial deposits are 500
and LRR is 10%

Ans. Money multiplier 10 times and total deposits 5000

Q.2) total deposits created by commercial banks is 12000 and LRR is 25%. Calculate initial
deposits

Ans. 3000

Q.3) calculate LRR is initial deposit is 200 and total deposit is 1600.

Ans. 12.5%

Q.4) whether the following changes by RBI will increase the money supply or reduce the
money supply -(a) rise in repo rate (b) purchase of securities in the open market by RBI
(c) RBI increases the margin from 20% to 30% (d) RBI reduces the CRR

Ans. (a) decrease in money supply (b) rise in money supply (c) decrease the money supply
(d) rise in money supply.
Q.5) GOVT. of INDIA has recently launched jan dhan yojna aimed at every household in the
country to have atleast one bank account. Explain how it going to affect the national income
of economy.

Ans. credit creation (explain) and national income will increase because more bank
accounts lead to more deposits which leads to rise in lending capacity of banks. Bank
mainly lend money to investors so there will be rise in investment and thus national
income will increase.

Q.6) commercial banks do not contribute in the quantum of money supply in economy
because they do not have power of issuing currency? True or false?

Ans. False because commercial banks can influence the money supply through credit
creation.

Q.7) CRR and SLR are fixed by commercial banks themselves?

Ans. No they are fixed by RBI only.

Q.8) commercial banks can offer loan equal to the amount of deposits received? True or
false?

Ans. False , Commercial banks can offer loan which is in far excess of initial deposits with
the help of credit creation.
CH – 7TH AGGREGATE DEMAND AND RELATED CONCEPTS
AGGREGATE DEMAND refers to total value of final goods and services which all
the sectors of an economy are planning to buy at a given level of income during
an accounting year. It must be noted that AD is the planned expenditure and
not the actual expenditure. AD is a flow concept as it is measured for the period
of an accounting year.

COMPONENTS OF AD –

1.) Households consumption expenditure (C) –


It refers to total expenditure incurred by households on purchase of goods and
services during an year. Consumption is directly related with disposable income
i.e higher the disposable income, higher will be the consumption. Disposable
income means income available to households for spending after payment of all
taxes to government.

2.) Investment expenditure (I) –


It refers to the total expenditure incurred by all private firms on capital goods. It
is assumed that investment is autonomous (constant) and not influenced by
change in Income.

3.) Government expenditure (G) –


It refers to the total expenditure incurred by government on consumer goods and
capital goods to satisfy the common needs of the Economy. It means govt.
incur consumption exp. as well as investment exp.
4.) Net exports (NX) –
It refers to the difference between exports and imports of a country. Exports refer
to demand of domestically produced goods by abroad and Imports refer to
demand of foreign produced goods by domestic residents.

AD = C + I in two sector economy.

AD = C + I + G in three sector economy.

AD = C + I + G + NX in four sector economy.

AD IN TWO SECTOR MODEL –

400 360 40 400

500 440 40 480

In the above schedule, consumption at zero level of income is autonomous
consumption means minimum consumption denoted by c.

Y axis Y

AD(C+I)

And

AD M I

0 INCOME/OUTPUT x axis

IMPORTANT POINTS OF AD in two sector model –


1.) AD is the sum total of consumption and investment in two sector economy.

2.) there is always some minimum level of consumption even at zero level of
income and this is called autonomous consumption. It exists because survival
needs consumption and this consumption can be fulfilled from previous
savings means dis-savings.

3.) Consumption curve is always upward sloping as with increase in income ,


consumption also increases .

4.) Investment is autonomous and its curve will be horizontal straight line
parallel to x axis because investment is constant in the short run.

5.) AD curve will be upward sloping as with increase in income, aggregate


demand will also increase.

6.) AD curve will always start from Y axis as it includes consumption which
can never be zero.
AGGREGATE SUPPLY –
AGGREGATE SUPPLY refers to money value of final goods and services that
all the producers are willing to supply in the economy during an accounting
year.

AS = C + S

Y=C+S

Y C S AS( C + S) Y(AS)

500 440 60 500 45®

600 520 80 600 O INCOME/OUTPUT

QUES . WHY AGGREGATE SUPPLY IS EQUAL TO INCOME? OR WHY AS = Y?


OR WHY OUTPUT IS ALWAYS EQUAL TO INCOME?
ANS . AS refers to total Value of goods and services in an economy in a given
period of time. The money value of total output is distributed to factors of
production in the form of rent , wages , salaries , interest and profits. The sum
total of all these factor incomes will be known as domestic income or national
income. So we can say that aggregate supply is always equal to income
generated in economy.

QUES . WHY AS AND Y CURVE IS ALWAYS 45 DEGREE STRAIGHT LINE?


ANS. In the given diagram, income is represented on X axis and consumption
and savings are represented on Y axis. AS curve is always 45 degree straight
line from the point of origin because the scale on both the axes are equal.
As we know that AS = C+ S , so , it is clear that vertical distance on curve is
exactly equals to horizontal distance . and thus AS curve is always 45 degree
straight line means line of reference.

CONSUMPTION - FUNCTION;
CONSUMPTION FUNCTION refers to functional relationship between
consumption and national income.

C = f (Y)

It is always a psychological concept as it is always based on human preferences,


taste and habits.

300 280

400 360 savings Dis-savings

600 520

IMPORTANT POINTS OF CONSUMPTION FUNCTION;


1.) Consumption curve will always start from Y axis. It implies there is
autonomous consumption even at zero level of income.

2.) Consumption curve is always upward sloping as with increase in income ,


consumption also increases but proportionate increase in consumption is
always less than proportionate increase in income.

3.) when income is less than consumption then gap is covered by dis-
savings(utilization of previous savings)(AREA OCB)

4.) when income and consumption both are equal then savings will be zero and
this is called break even point i.e point B

5.) when income is more than consumption then excess income leads to savings.

J.M KEYNES PSYCHOLOGICAL LAW OF CONSUMPTION –


Consumption function is based on Keynes psychological law of consumption
which states that –
1.) there is always some minimum level of consumption even at zero level of
income and this is called autonomous consumption.

2.) as income increases, consumption also increases.

3.) income rises at a greater proportion as compared to increase in consumption

APC (AVERAGE PROPENSITY TO CONSUME)


APC refers to ratio of consumption to the corresponding level of income.

APC = Consumption (C)

IMPORTANT POINTS OF APC


1.) APC will be more than 1 when consumption is more than income. This is
called Dis-savings which occurs before the break-even point.

2.) APC will be 1 when income and consumption are equal. This is called break-
even point.
3.) APC will be less than 1 when consumption is less than income. This is called
savings which occurs after the break-even point.

4.) APC can never be zero or negative as consumption can never be zero or
negative. Because even at zero level of Income , there will be some autonomous
consumption.

5.) APC continuously falls because with increase in Income, the proportion
spent on consumption keeps on decreasing. This is called paradox of thrift.

100 120 0.8 ∆C MPC =∆C/∆Y

200 200 0.8 C

300 280 0.8 ∆Y

400 360 0.8 0 INCOME/output

MPC is called as the slope of consumption curve and as MPC is taken as


constant , thats why, consumption curve is linear and straight line.

IMPORTANT POINTS OF MPC –

1.) MPC varies between zero and one –


a) If entire additional income is saved and there is no change in consumption ,
then , MPC will be zero.

b) If entire additional income is consumed and there is no change in savings,


then , MPC will be one.

∆Y = 100 , ∆C = 0 then MPC will be zero

∆Y = 100 , ∆C = 100 then MPC will be one


2.) MPC of poor is always more than MPC of RICH. It happens because poor
people spend a larger proportion of their increased income on consumption as
most of their needs remain unsatisfied. Rich people spend a smaller proportion
of their increased income on consumption as they are already enjoy a high
standard of living. It can be concluded that MPC of developing countries is
always more than MPC of developed countries.

BASIS APC MPC

IMPORTANT POINTS OF SAVINGS FUNCTION –


1.) Savings curve will always upward sloping as with increase in income ,
savings also increases.

2.) Savings curve will always start from negative Y axis(OA) because there
will always be some autonomous consumption.

3.) Savings will be negative as when income is less than consumption. This is
called Dis-savings . it occurs before the break-even point. area OAR

4.) Savings will be zero when income exactly equals to consumption . this is
called break-even point. POINT R

5.) Savings will be positive when income is more than consumption. This occurs
after the break-even point. It is called savings.

IMPORTANT POINTS OF APS –


1.) APS can never be one or more than one as income and savings can never be
equal as consumption can never be zero or negative.

2.) APS can be zero when savings are zero. It occurs during break-even point
when income and consumption are equal.
3.) APS can be negative when savings are negative. It occurs when savings are
negative i.e dis-savings when consumption is more than income.

4.) APS can be less than one when income is more than consumption when
some part of their income is saved. APS is positive

5.)APS rises with rise in income. It happens because with rise in income the
proportion of income which is saved rises continuously. This is also called
paradox of thrift.

IMPORTANT POINTS OF MPS –

MPS VARIES BETWEEN ZERO AND ONE –


a) If entire additional income is consumed then it means change in savings
will be zero and thus MPS will be zero
∆Y=100 , ∆C =100 , ∆S =0, so MPS will be zero

b) If entire additional income is saved then it means MPS will be one

∆Y = 100 , ∆S = 100 , MPS will be one.

It must be noted that MPS is the slope of savings curve. As MPS is taken as
constant, that’s why, savings curve is linear and straight line.

BASIS APS MPS

MEANING it refers to ratio of it refers to ratio of

FORMULA S/Y ∆S/∆Y

DERIVATION-
1.) Y = C + S
Divide both the sides by Y

Y/Y = C/Y + S/Y

1 = APC + APS

2.) Y = C + S
We can also write,
∆Y = ∆C + ∆S

Divide both the sides by ∆Y

∆Y÷∆Y = ∆C÷∆Y + ∆S÷∆Y

1 = MPC + MPS

HOW SAVINGS CURVE IS DERIVED FROM CONSUMPTION CURVE?

HOW CONSUMPTION CURVE IS DERIVED FROM SAVINGS CURVE?

HOW SAVINGS AND CONSUMPTION CURVES ARE COMPLEMENTARY?

ANS.
IN THE GIVEN SCHEDULE AND DIAGRAM , consumption curve is upward
sloping and 45 degree line represents the income curve.

By these income and consumption curves , we can derive the savings curve and
vice versa is also possible –

 At zero level of income , there will be some autonomous consumption and


due to this savings curve will start from negative Y axis . Here negative
savings will be equal to the amount of autonomous consumption.
 Before the break-even point , consumption is more than income and thus
savings will be negative i.e dis savings i.e area OSK
 At the break-even point , income and consumption are equal and thus
savings will be zero i.e POINT K
 After the break-even point , income is more than consumption , so, there
will be positive savings.

By joining these points S and K and extending it further we can derive a


savings curve from consumption curve.

INVESTMENT FUNCTION –

Investment refers to expenditure incurred on creation of new capital assets.


Investment is of two types –
A) INDUCED INVESTMENT
B) AUTONOMOUS INVESTMENT

INDUCED INVESTMENT –

It refers to the investment which depends on the profit expectations and is


directly influenced with income level. It is income elastic means it increases
with rise in income or vice-versa.
Its curve is upward sloping because with increase in income, induced
investment also increases.

INDUCED INVESTMENT

AUTONOMOUS INVESTMENT –
It refers to the investment which is not affected by change in level of income
and it is not influenced by profit motive. It is income inelastic as it is not
influenced by change in level of income.
Its curve will be horizontal straight line parallel to X axis as it remain same at
every level of income. These investments are generally made by govt. on
infrastructural activities.

IMPORTANT MEANINGS –

1.) EX-ANTE SAVINGS –


It refers to the amount of savings which the households plan to save at different
levels of income. It is also known as planned savings, desired savings, intended
savings and voluntary savings.
2.) EX-POST SAVINGS –
it refers to actual savings in an economy during a year. It is sum total of
planned and unplanned savings
3.) EX-ANTE INVESTMENT –
It refers to the amount of investment which firms plan to invest at different
levels of income in the economy. It is also known as intended investment ,
planned investment , desired investment and voluntary investment.
4.) EX-POST INVESTMENT –
It refers to the actual investment in an economy during a year. It is the sum
total of planned and unplanned investments.
5.) FULL EMPLOYMENT –
It refers to a situation when all those people who are able to work and willing to
work are getting work at the existing wage rate.
6.) FRICTIONAL UNEMPLOYMENT –
it refers to temporary unemployment which exists during the time period when
workers leave one job and join some other.
7.) STRUCTURAL UNEMPLOYMENT –
It refers to the unemployment in which people remain unemployed due to a
mismatch between unemployed workers and demand for specific type of
workers.
8.) VOLUNTARY UNEMPLOYMENT –
It refers to the unemployment when a person is unemployed because he is not
willing to work at the existing wage rate.
9.) INVOLUNTARY UNEMPLOYMENT –
it refers to the unemployment when all those people who are willing to work and
able to work but do not get work.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Equilibrium occurs only when ex-ante(planned) savings = ex-ante(planned
investment).

NOTE ABOUT FULLEMPLOYMENT:


It must be noted that in macro- economics, full employment never means zero
unemployment because frictional and structural unemployment always exists.

THEORY QUESTIONS
Q.1) which of the following have the value of more than 1 and less than zero means
negative (a) APC (b) APS (c) MPC (d) MPS
Ans. (a) APC can be more than 1 at dis-savings but can never be negative as consumption
can never be negative
(b) APS can be negative at dis-savings but can never be more than 1 because consumption
can never be zero or negative, so savings cannot be equal to or cannot be more than income
(c) value of MPC varies from zero to one (d) value of MPS varies from zero to one.

Q.2) explain ex-ante consumption, autonomous consumption and induced consumption.


Ans. Ex-ante consumption means the consumption expenditure which is planned by the
households during a year.
Autonomous consumption is the consumption which exists even at zero level of income. It
is denoted by c
Induced consumption is the consumption which rises with rise in income. It is denoted by
MPC(Y)

Q.3)with increase in national income, both APS and APC falls?


Ans. False, with rise in income proportion of income spent declines and proportion of
income saved rises.

Q.4) slope of consumption curve is ________ Ans. MPC

CH – 8TH INCOME DETERMINATION AND MULTIPLIER


ACCORDING TO J.M KEYNES

AD = AS (EQU.)

C+I = C+S

SO, I = S or S = I (EQU.)
Assumptions of these two approaches are:
1.) The determination of equilibrium is to be studied in the context of two
sector model (households and firms) and there is no involvement of
government and foreign sector.

2.) Investment is taken as autonomous i.e constant,

3.) Price level is assumed to be constant.

4.) Determination of equilibrium is taken in short run.

AD AND AS APPROACH (OR) PLANNED SPENDINGS


AND PLANNED OUTPUT APPROACH (OR) EFFECTIVE
DEMAND APPROACH (OR) C+I APPROACH
ACCORDING to J.M KEYNES the equilibrium level of income or output is
determined when aggregate demand exactly equals to aggregate supply.

AGGREGATE DEMAND refers to total value of final goods and services which
all the sectors of an economy are planning to buy in an economy during an
accounting year.

AGGREGATE SUPPLY refers to money value of final goods and services which
all the producers in the economy are planning to supply during an accounting
year.

LET US now understand the concept of income determination at equilibrium

• It is a situation of effective demand.

WHEN AD IS MORE THAN AS –


When planned spending is more than planned output , it means that
consumers would be buying more goods than the firms are willing to produce.
As a result, price level in the economy will increase and inventory would fall
below the desired level.

To bring the inventory back to the desired level, firm will increase the level of
output and thus employment will generate in the economy. This will continue
till we reach the point of equilibrium

WHEN AD IS LESS THAN AS –


When planned spending is less than planned output, it means that consumers
would be buying fewer goods than the firms are willing to produce. As a result,
price level will fall in the economy and inventory would rise above the desired
level.

To clear the unwanted inventory, firm will reduce the further level of output and
thus unemployment will create. This will continue till we reach the point of
equilibrium.

SAVINGS and INVESTMENT APPROACH (OR) EX-ANTE


SAVINGS and EX-ANTE INVESTMENT APPROACH (OR)
PLANNED SAVINGS and PLANNED INVESTMENT
APPROACH.
According to this approach, the equilibrium level of income is determined at a
level , when planned savings exactly equals to planned investment.

Let us understand the concept with the help of following schedule and diagram.

Y C I S AD AS
0 40 40 -40 80 0

100 120 40 -20 S<I 160 100

200 200 40 0 240 200

300 280 40 20 320 300

400 360 40 40 S =I 400 400

500 440 40 60 480 500

600 520 40 80 S>I 560 600


INVESTMENT curve is parallel to X axis because of its autonomous nature and
savings curve is upward sloping because when income rises then savings also
rises.

• ECONOMY is in equilibrium at point E where savings curve and


investment curve intersect each other.
• At point E , ex-ante savings exactly equals to ex-ante investments.
• OY is the equilibrium level of output (INCOME)

WHEN SAVINGS IS MORE THAN INVESTMENT –


If planned savings is more than planned investment then it means that
households are not consuming as much the firms are expected them to do so. As
a result , inventory rises above the desired level. To clear the unwanted
inventory firm will reduce the further output till we reach the point of
equilibrium.

WHEN SAVINGS IS LESS THAN INVESTMENT –


If planned savings are less than planned investments then it means that
households are consuming more as much the firms are expected them to do so.
As a result, inventory would fall below the desired level. To bring the inventory
back to the desired level, firm will increase the level of output till we reach the
point of equilibrium.

EQUILIBRIUM UNDER DIFFERENT EMPLOYMENT LEVEL

1.) FULL EMPLOYMENT EQUILIBRIUM –

It refers to a situation when aggregate demand exactly equals to aggregate


supply at full employment level. Full employment refers to a situation when all
those people who are able to work and willing to work are getting work.
2.) UNDER EMPLOYMENT EQUILIBRIUM –

It refers to a situation when aggregate demand is equal to aggregate supply


when the resources are not fully employed. It occurs before the full employment
level.

3.) OVER FULL EMPLOYMENT EQUILIBRIUM –

It refers to a situation when aggregate demand is equal to aggregate supply


beyond the full employment level. It occurs after the full employment level.

It must be noted that after the full employment level , aggregate supply or
output cannot be increased , so AD must be reduced by increasing the prices. So
it will create inflation.
INVESTMENT MULTIPLIER
INVESTMENT MULTIPLIER refers to the ratio of increase in national income
due to an increase in investment.

IT IS DENOTED BY “K”

K= ∆Y suppose investment rises by 4000 Rs. and income rises by

∆I 20,000 Rs. so investment multiplier will be 5 times.

DERIVATION –

AS = AD (EQUILIBRIUM LEVEL)

Y = C + I

We can also write….

∆Y = ∆C + ∆I

Divide both sides by ∆Y

∆Y = ∆C + ∆I

∆Y = ∆Y + ∆Y

1 = MPC + ∆I

∆Y

1 – MPC = ∆I

∆Y

RECIPROCAL….

1 = K

1 – MPC
(OR)

MPC + MPS = 1

SO, MPS = 1 – MPC

SO, K = 1

MPS

RELATION BETWEEN MPC AND MULTIPLIER


There always exists a direct or positive relation between MPC and investment
multiplier. It means higher will be the MPC, higher will be the multiplier or vice
versa.

When investment increases then it also increases the income of people. People
spend a part of increased income on consumption which depends on MPC.

In case of higher MPC , people will spend a large proportion of their increased
income on consumption , so multiplier will be more.

In case of low MPC , people will spend a less proportion of their increased income
on consumption , so multiplier will be less.

1.) Assume MPC is 0.2,

So multiplier will be

K = 1 = 1 = 1.25 TIMES

1 - MPC 1-0.2

2.) Assume , MPC = 0.8

So multiplier will be

K = 1 = 1 = 5 TIMES

1 - MPC 1-0.8
RELATION BETWEEN MPS AD MULTIPLIER
K = 1 = 1 = 10 TIMES

MPS 0.1

K = 1 = 1 = 1.25 TIMES

MPS 0.8

There exists an inverse relation between MPS and multiplier. As, higher savings
lead to lower investments and lower will be the value of multiplier.

Whereas , lower savings lead to higher investments and thus higher multiplier.

MINIMUM VALUE OF MULTIPLIER


Minimum value of MPC is zero. By which we can calculate the minimum value
of investment multiplier.

K = 1 = 1 = 1 TIME

1 - MPC 1-0

MINIMUM value of multiplier is one which indicates that total of increased


income is saved and there is no change in consumption. It means there will be
no further increase in income.

MAXIMUM VALUE OF MULTIPLIER


Maximum value of MPC is one. By which we can calculate the maximum value
of investment multiplier.

K = 1 = 1 = infinity

1 - MPC 1–1
Maximum value of multiplier is infinite which indicates that total of increased
income is consumed and there is no change in savings. Thus there will be
continuous increase in consumption and income.

WORKING OF MULTIPLIER (OR) EXPLAIN THE WORKING OF


INVESTMENT MULTIPLIER WITH TABLE AND DIAGRAM AND ALSO
EXPLAIN THE REVERSE OPERATION OF MUTIPLIER.
The working of multiplier is based on the fact that expenditure of one person is
the income of another person. When an additional investment is made then
income increases many times more than increase in investment.

LET US NOW UNDERSTAND the working of investment multiplier with the


help of numerical example.

• Suppose an additional investment of Rs. 100 is made to construct a


flyover which will generate an extra income of Rs. 100 in the first round.
• If MPC is assumed to be 0.9 then it means that 90% of additional income
will be consumed and remaining amount will be saved. It will ultimately
increase the income of other person by 90 Rs. in the second round.
• In the next round, again 90% of additional income will be consumed
(81 Rs.) and remaining amount will be saved.
• This multiplier process will go on and consumption expenditure in every
round keeps on increasing.

REVERSE OPERATION OF MULTIPLIER –
MULTIPLIER works in forward direction as well as in backward direction. If
the investment decreases the multiplier operates in the backward direction. A
reduction in investment leads to reduction in income as well as reduction in
consumption.

Thus investment multiplier is a double edged weapon.

FORMULAE –
AD = C + I
AS = C + S
Y=C+S
APC = C÷Y
MPC = ∆C÷∆Y
APS = S÷Y
MPS =∆S÷∆Y
APC + APS = 1
MPC + MPS = 1

C = c + MPC(Y)

S = -c + MPS(Y)

AT BREAK EVEN LEVEL, Y = C or SAVINGS = 0(ZERO)

Assume a percentage, say 60%

60% of income is consumed = APC 0.6


60% of income is saved = APS 0.6
60% of additional income is consumed = MPC 0.6
60% of additional income is saved = MPS 0.6

is at equilibrium at level 400 or not.

Q.26) in an economy , investment increased by 1100 and income increased by 5500. If MPS will be
25% then what will be the increase in income.

THEORY QUESTIONS

Q1.) when MPC is equal to MPS , then increase in income will be two times of increase in investment?

Ans. Yes if MPC and MPS are equal then it means both are 0.5 , so K means multiplier will be 2 times . it
means increase in income will be two times of increase in investment.

Q.2) Economists are generally concerned about rising MPS, WHY?

Ans. As we know, the sum of MPC and MPS is equal to one. So if MPS will rise then it leads to fall in MPC
which means there will be a significant decline in proportion of consumption. Consumption is vital
factor of aggregate demand. So fall in consumption leads to fall in AD. Fall in AD leads to fall in
equilibrium level of economy.

Q.3) when MPC is greater than MPS , then multiplier will be more than 5?

Ans. False if MPC is more than MPS then investment multiplier can even be less than 5 times also.

Q.4) measure the level of exante AD if autonomous investment and consumption is 50. MPS 0.2,
income level is 4000.

Ans.

AD = c + MPC(y) + I, here

autonomous consumption + autonomous investment is totally given as 50


AD = 50 + 0.8(4000)

AD = 50 + 3200

AD = 3250

And AS is given as 4000. So economy is not an equilibrium.

Q.5) estimate the valueof ex-ante AD if autonomous investment and consumption is 50. MPS 0.2 and
income is 300.
Ans. AD = c + MPC(y) + I, here
autonomous consumption + autonomous investment is totally given as 50
AD = 50 + 0.8(300)
AD = 50 + 240
AD = 290
But AS is 300 so, economy is not at equilibrium level.

CH – 9TH EXCESS DEMAND and DEFICIENT DEMAND


EXCESS DEMAND –
EXCESS DEMAND refers to the situation when aggregate demand is more
than the aggregate supply corresponding to full employment level of output in
the economy.

INFLATIONARY GAP refers to the gap by which actual AD exceeds the AD


required at full employment level.

REASONS BEHIND EXCESS DEMAND –


1.) excess demand may arise due to increase in consumption expenditure i.e rise
in propensity to consume and fall in propensity to save.

2.) excess demand may also occur due to increase in disposable income of people
because of reduction in taxes by the government.

3.) excess demand may also arise due to increase in investment expenditure
because of lower interest rates on loan and due to higher profits on investment.

4.) excess demand can arise due to increase in government expenditure on


goods, services and infrastructure.

5.) excess demand occurs due to fall in imports because fall in imports lead to
rise in demand of domestic goods.

6.) excess demand arises due to rise in exports which means increase in demand
of domestic goods by the foreign market.

7.) excess demand occurs because of deficit financing which means printing of
new currency by the RBI in case of deficit budget.

IMPACT OF EXCESS DEMAND –


EXCESS DEMAND is not a desired situation as it does not lead to rise in
aggregate supply as economy is already operating at full employment level.
Excess demand has the following impacts on economy.

1.) Effect on general price level – excess demand leads to rise in general price
level in the economy (inflation)

2.) Effect on employment – there will be no change in the level of employment


as the economy is already operating at full employment level.

3.) Effect on output – there will be no change in the level of output as economy
is operating at full employment equilibrium and there is no idle capacity in the
economy.
If there is question regarding AD is more than AS then answer it from previous chapter , AD and
AS approach.

But if it is mentioned that AD is more than AS at full employment level then answer it from this
chapter.
DEFICIENT DEMAND –
DEFICIENT DEMAND refers to a situation when aggregate demand is less than
aggregate supply corresponding to full employment level of output in the
economy.

Deflationary gap refers to the gap by which actual AD fall short of AD required
at full employment level.

REASONS BEHIND DEFICIENT DEMAND –


1.) deficient demand arises due to fall in consumption expenditure i.e fall in
propensity to consume and high propensity to save.

2.) deficient demand arises due to fall in disposable income of people because of
higher taxes imposed by the government.
3.) deficient demand occurs due to fall in government expenditure on goods ,
services and infrastructure.

4.) deficient demand mainly occurs due to fall in investment because of higher
interest rates on loans or due to lower profits on investment.

5.) deficient demand arises due to rise in imports because rise in imports lead to
fall in demand of domestic goods.

6.) deficient demand arises due to fall in exports which means fall in demand
of domestic goods by the foreign market.

IMPACT OF DEFICIENT DEMAND –


Deficient demand has following impact on the economy

1.) Effect on general price level – deficient demand causes fall in general price
level (deflation)

2.) Effect on output – due to shortage of demand there will be increase in the
level of inventory thus planned output will fall.

3.) Effect on employment – deficient demand causes involuntary


unemployment in the economy due to fall in planned output.

MEASURES TO TACKLE OR CONTROL EXCESS


DEMAND BY FISCAL AND MONETARY POLICY –

FISCAL POLICY –
1.) DECREASE IN GOVERNMENT SPENDINGS
Government spends huge amount on infrastructure and administration like
defence. To control the situation of excess demand, government should reduce
its expenditures to the maximum possible level. Government should reduce its
expenditures on defence and other unproductive activities which helps in
reduction of aggregate demand.

2.) INCREASE IN TAXES


During excess demand, government increases rate of taxes and even impose
some new taxes which leads to fall in disposable income of the economy and
helps to reduce the level of aggregate demand.

MONETARY POLICY –
1.) BANK RATE/REPO RATE (QUANTITATIVE INSTRUMENT)
Bank rate refers to that rate of interest at which RBI lends money to
commercial banks for meeting their long term requirements whereas repo rate
refers to that rate of interest at which RBI lends money to commercial banks for
meeting their short term requirements. During the situation of excess demand,
RBI increases the percentage of bank rate and repo rate which will ultimately
increase the cost of borrowings by the commercial banks. Thus commercial
banks will increase the market rate of interest which discourages the borrower to
take loans and thus level of AD will reduce.

2.) OPEN MARKET OPERATIONS (QUANTITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


It refers to purchase and sale of securities in the open market by the RBI. During
the situation of excess demand , RBI offers securities for sale which will reduce
the cash balance of commercial banks and it will reduce their lending capacity
and thus level of AD will also reduce.

3.) CRR AND SLR (QUANTITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


CRR refers to that percentage of total deposits which the commercial banks are
required to maintain with RBI whereas SLR refers to that percentage of total
deposits which the commercial banks are required to maintain with themselves.

During the situation of excess demand, RBI increases the percentage of these
reserves which will ultimately reduce the lending capacity of commercial banks
and thus commercial banks will provide less credit in the economy and thus
level of AD will surely reduce.

4.) REVERSE REPO RATE (QUANTITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


Reverse repo rate refers to that rate of interest at which commercial banks can
park their surplus funds with RBI. During the situation of excess demand, RBI
increases the reverse repo rate which induce the commercial banks to park more
money with RBI so that lending capacity of commercial banks will reduce and
thus banks will provide less credit in the economy and money supply will
reduce. Thus aggregate demand can be reduced and excess demand can be
tackled.

5.) MARGIN REQUIREMENT (QUALITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


Margin refers to the difference between amount of loan and value of security
offered against loan. When the economy is suffering from excess demand, RBI
increases the percentage of margin which restricts the flow of credit in the
economy and thus commercial banks will be able to provide less credit in the
economy and thus AD will reduce.

6.) MORAL SUASION(QUALITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


This is the combination of persuasion and pressure that RBI applies on
commercial banks in order to get them act in a manner with the policy of RBI.
Moral suasion is exercised through discussions, speeches, letters and hints to
commercial banks. During the situation of excess demand , RBI advises not to
advance credit to economy which will surely reduce the level of aggregate
demand.

7.) SELECTIVE CREDIT CONTROL(QUALITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


It refers to a method in which RBI gives direction to commercial banks to give or
not to give credit to a particular sector. During excess demand, RBI introduces
rationing of credit which will prevent the flow of credit in economy and thus
aggregate demand will reduce.
MEASURES TO TACKLE DEFICIENT DEMAND BY
FISCAL AND MONETARY POLICY –

FISCAL POLICY –
1.) INCREASE IN GOVERNMENT SPENDINGS
Government spends huge amount on infrastructure and administration like
defence. To tackle the situation of deficient demand, government should
increase its expenditures to the maximum possible level. Government should
increase its expenditures on defence and other infrastructural activities which
helps in increase in the level of aggregate demand.

2.) DECREASE IN TAXES


During deficient demand, government reduces rate of taxes and even abolish
some taxes which leads to rise in disposable income of the economy and helps to
increase the level of aggregate demand.

MONETARY POLICY –
1.) BANK RATE/REPO RATE (QUANTITATIVE INSTRUMENT)
Bank rate refers to that rate of interest at which RBI lends money to
commercial banks for meeting their long term requirements whereas repo rate
refers to that rate of interest at which RBI lends money to commercial banks for
meeting their short term requirements. During the situation of deficient
demand, RBI reduces the percentage of bank rate and repo rate which will
ultimately reduce the cost of borrowings by the commercial banks. Thus
commercial banks will reduce the market rate of interest which encourages the
borrower to take loans and thus level of AD will increase.
2.) OPEN MARKET OPERATIONS (QUANTITATIVE INSTRUMENT)
It refers to purchase and sale of securities in the open market by the RBI. During
the situation of deficient demand, RBI purchases securities from commercial
banks which will increase the cash balance of commercial banks and it will
increase their lending capacity and thus level of AD will also increase.

3.) CRR AND SLR (QUANTITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


CRR refers to that percentage of total deposits which the commercial banks are
required to maintain with RBI whereas SLR refers to that percentage of total
deposits which the commercial banks are required to maintain with themselves.

During the situation of deficient demand, RBI reduces the percentage of these
reserves which will ultimately increase the lending capacity of commercial
banks and thus commercial banks will provide more credit in the economy and
thus level of AD will surely increase.

4.) REVERSE REPO RATE (QUANTITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


Reverse repo rate refers to that rate of interest at which commercial banks can
park their surplus funds with RBI. During the situation of deficient demand,
RBI reduces the reverse repo rate which indicates the commercial banks to park
less money with RBI so that lending capacity of commercial banks will
increase and thus banks will provide more credit in the economy and money
supply will increase. Thus aggregate demand can be increased and deficient
demand can be corrected.

5.) MARGIN REQUIREMENT (QUALITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


Margin refers to the difference between amount of loan and value of security
offered against loan. When the economy is suffering from deficient demand,
RBI reduces the percentage of margin which encourages the flow of credit in the
economy and thus commercial banks will be able to provide more credit in the
economy and thus AD will increase.

6.) MORAL SUASION(QUALITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


This is the combination of persuasion and pressure that RBI applies on
commercial banks in order to get them act in a manner with the policy of RBI.
Moral suasion is exercised through discussions, speeches, letters and hints to
commercial banks. During the situation of deficient demand , RBI advises to
advance credit to economy which will surely increase the level of aggregate
demand.

7.) SELECTIVE CREDIT CONTROL(QUALITATIVE INSTRUMENT)


It refers to a method in which RBI gives direction to commercial banks to give or
not to give credit to a particular sector. During deficient demand, RBI removes
rationing of credit which will encourage the flow of credit in economy and thus
aggregate demand will increase.

THREE SECTOR ECONOMY –

(LESS IMP. TOPIC) (SIMILAR TO FISCAL POLICY DISCUSSED ABOVE)

REMEDY FOR EXCESS DEMAND IN THREE SECTOR ECONOMY


To correct the problem of excess demand in three sector economy, government
needs to reduce its expenditure which will ultimately helps in reduction of
aggregate demand. Because of reduction in government expenditure AD curve
will shift downward and we reach at the point of equilibrium at full
employment.

REMEDY FOR DEFICIENT DEMAND IN THREE SECTOR ECONOMY


To correct the problem of deficient demand in three sector economy, government
needs to increase its expenditure which will ultimately helps in increasing of
aggregate demand. Because of increase in government expenditure AD curve
will shift upward and we reach at the point of equilibrium at full employment.

CHAPTER 10TH GOVERNMENT BUDGET
GOVERNMENT BUDGET is an annual statement showing item wise estimates
of receipts and expenditures during a fiscal year. Fiscal year is taken from 1 st
April to 31st March.

✓ Budget is prepared by government at all levels i.e central govt. , state


govt. and local government. The budget of central government is known
as union budget.
✓ Receipts and expenditures are planned as per the objectives of the
government.
✓ Budget is presented in the parliament as it is required to be approved by
parliament before it is implemented.
✓ Finance minister presents the budget before the parliament on first dayof
February each year.
✓ Budget reveals the financial performance of last year and financial
policies of coming year.

OBJECTIVES OF GOVT. BUDGET


1.) RE-ALLOCATION OF RESOURCES –
Through the budget government aims to reallocate resources in accordance with
the economic priorities(profit) and social priorities(social welfare) of the
country. Government can influence the allocation of resources through;

(a) TAX CONCESSION OR SUBSIDIES – to encourage investment ,


government can give tax concessions or subsidies to the producers. For example;
government can discourage the production of harmful goods like liquor by
imposing heavy taxes and encourage the use of Khadi products by providing
subsidies.

(b) DIRECTLY PRODUCING GOODS and SERVICES – if private sector does


not take interest then government can undertake the production. there are
many non-profitable economic activities which are not undertaken by private
sector like defence, etc. there activities are called public goods and such activities
are necessarily undertaken by government in public interest and to raise social
welfare.

2.) REDUCING INEQUALITIES IN INCOME AND WEALTH –


Economic inequality is an inherent part of every economic system. Govt. aims
to reduce such inequalities of income and wealth through the budget. Govt.
aims to influence this by imposing heavy taxes on rich and spending more on
the welfare of poor. It will reduce income of the rich and raise the standard of
living of poor.

Free LPG gas connection under ujjwala yojana and food grains to BPL sections
can also raise the standard of living of poor people.

3.) ECONOMIC STABILITY –


Government budget is used to prevent business fluctuations of inflation and
deflation to achieve the objectives of economic stability.
(a) inflation arises when aggregate demand is higher than the aggregate
supply . government can bring down the aggregate demand by reducing the
govt. expenditures or by increasing taxes. This is surplus budget.

(b) deflation arises when aggregate demand is less than aggregate supply.
Government can raise the level of AD by increasing the govt. expenditures or by
lowering taxes. This is deficit budget.

4.) MANAGEMENT OF PUBLIC ENTERPRISES –


There are large no. of public sector industries which are established and
managed for social welfare of the public. Budget is prepared with the objective of
making various provisions for managing such enterprises and providing them
financial help.

5.) ECONOMIC GROWTH –


The growth rate of a country depends on the rate of savings and investments.
For this purpose , government budget aims to mobilize sufficient resources for
investment in public sector. Government makes various provisions in the
budget to raise overall rate of savings and investments in the economy.

Economic growth implies sustainable increase in the real GDP of an economy i.e
increase in the volume of goods and services. Budget can be an effective tool to
ensure economic growth as

(a) if govt. provides subsidies for productive projects then it can stimulate
savings and investment in the economy.

(b) spending on infrastructure enhances the production activity in different


sectors of economy.

6.) REDUCING REGIONAL DISPARITIES –


The government budget aims to reduce regional disparities through its taxation
and expenditure policy for encouraging setting up of production units in
economically backward regions. Establishments of special economic zones in
backward areas can also promote their economic and financial development.

7.) EMPLOYMENT GENERATION –


budget is used as an effective tool in the process of employment generation in
various ways. Investment in infrastructure like construction of highways
creates jobs for different sections of workers. Similarly, government aims to
provide jobs through various employment generation schemes like MGNREGA,
NFFWP, SJSRY, PMRY, etc.

Types of budget ;

1.) Balanced budget


A budget is said to be a balanced budget when estimated receipts of the
government are exactly equals to estimated expenditures.

2.) Surplus budget


A budget is said to be a surplus budget when estimated receipts of the
government are more than estimated expenditures.

3.) Deficit budget


A budget is said to be a deficit budget when estimated receipts of the
government are less than estimated expenditures.

TYPES OF DEFICIT –

1.) REVENUE DEFICIT


It refers to excess of revenue expenditure over revenue receipts during the given
fiscal year.
REVENUE DEFICIT = revenue expenditure – revenue receipts

IMPLICATIONS OF REVENUE DEFICIT –


1.) it indicates the inability of the government to meet its regular expenditure
in the proposed budget.

2.) it implies that government is dissaving i.e utilization of previous savings or


savings of other sectors.

3.) government has to make up the deficit through disinvestment which means
sale of assets or shares of public sector undertakings.

4.) government has to make the deficit by borrowings which will increase the
future burden of loan and interest as well as leads to inflationary situation in
the economy.

5.) high revenue deficit gives a warning signal to the government either to
reduce its expenditure or increase receipts.

MEASURES TO REDUCE REVENUE DEFICIT –


1.) government should take some serious steps to reduce its expenditure and
avoid unproductive expenditures.

2.) government should increase its receipts from various sources of tax and non
tax revenue.

2.) FISCAL DEFICIT


Fiscal deficit refers to the excess of total expenditures over total
receipts(excluding borrowings)during the given fiscal year.
Fiscal deficit = total exp. - total receipts(excluding borrowings)

Or fiscal deficit = borrowings


Fiscal deficit = (revenue exp. + capital exp.) - (revenue receipts + capital receipts excluding borrowings)

Fiscal deficit = revenue deficit + capital exp. - capital receipts excluding borrowings

Fiscal deficit = budgetary deficit + borrowings

NON – DEBT creating capital receipts refers to all those capital receipts except
borrowings. Borrowings are considered as debt creating capital receipts because
it creates a liability on the government to make payment in future.

IMPLICATIONS OF FISCAL DEFICIT –

1.) DEBT TRAP –


Fiscal deficit indicates the total borrowing requirements of the government.
Borrowings not only involve repayment of principal amount but also require
payment of interest. It creates a vicious circle of fiscal and revenue deficit, where
government takes more loans to repay the earlier one. As such , country caught
in debt trap.

2.) INFLATION –
Government mainly borrows money from RBI to meet its fiscal deficit. RBI
prints new currency to meet the deficit requirement. It increases the money
supply in the economy and thus creates inflation.

3.) FOREIGN DEPENDENCE –


Government also borrows from rest of the world which raises its dependence of
other countries.

4.) HAMPERS FUTURE GROWTH –


Borrowings increase the financial burden for future generations. It adversely
affects the future growth and development of the country.
SOURCES OF FINANCING FISCAL DEFICIT (OR) HOW TO TACKLE FISCAL
DEFICIT –

1.) BORROWINGS –
Fiscal deficit can be met by borrowings from the internal sources as well as
from the external sources. Internal sources include public, commercial banks etc
whereas external sources include foreign government, international
organizations like world bank.

2.) DEFICIT FINANCING –(printing of new currency)


Government may borrow from RBI against its securities to meet the fiscal
deficit. RBI issues new currency for this purpose. This process is known as
deficit financing.

NOTE :

Borrowings are considered as better source to cover the fiscal deficit because it
will not increase the money supply and does not lead to inflation. Deficit
financing means printing of new currency always create inflation in the
economy as it leads to rise in money supply.

IS FISCAL DEFICIT NECESSARY INFLATIONARY?

ANS. Fiscal deficit is mainly financed by deficit financing i.e printing of new
currency by the RBI. Printing of new currency leads to rise in money supply of
economy and thus creates excess demand and thus inflation in the economy.
However if borrowings are made for infrastructural development then it does not
lead to inflation.

IT MUST BE NOTED THAT, IN INDIA SAFE LIMIT OF FISCAL DEFICIT IS


3% OF GDP.
3.) PRIMARY DEFICIT
Primary deficit refers to the difference between fiscal deficit of the current year
and interest payments of the previous borrowings.

Fiscal deficit – interest payments = primary deficit.

It must be noted that primary deficit indicates borrowings requirements of the


government to cover up the current year deficit.

ZERO PRIMARY DEFICIT OR LOW PRIMARY DEFICIT


Zero primary deficit indicates that government resorts to borrow money only to
clear the backlog of interest payments. There is no borrowing requirement for
current year because zero primary deficit clearly indicates zero deficit of the
current year, it means government is required to borrow money just to clear the
previous interest payments.

Zero primary deficit is a sign of fiscal discipline in the economy.

IMPORTANT QUESTIONS OF GOVT. BUDGET

Q.1) how can surplus budget be used during inflation?

Ans. Surplus budget refers to a situation when receipts of govt. are more than expenditures
of the govt. during a fiscal year. In surplus budget govt. is actually receiving more taxes
from the public which results in decline in purchasing power of economy and thus AD will
reduce . so inflation can be corrected.

Q.2) can there be a fiscal deficit without any revenue deficit?

Ans. Yes this is possible in two cases

(a) when revenue receipts are equal to revenue expenditure, that is no revenue deficit but
capital expenditures are more than capital receipts, so there will be fiscal deficit

(b) when revenue receipts are more than revenue expenditure, that is no revenue deficit
but capital expenditures are more than capital receipts, so there will be fiscal deficit.

Q.3) finance minister proposed to raise the tax on cigratte. He also proposed to raise the
income tax on people earning more than 1 crore per annum. What are the possible welfare
objectives of govt.

Ans. Reallocation of resources and reducing inequalities

Q.4) govt. raising its exp. On public goods, explain the concerned objective

Ans. Public goods are like defence, education, health, law and order. Expenditure on these
goods provide nation security. The concerned objective if economic growth

Q.5) govt has started spending more on providing free education and health to poor.
Explain the objective

Ans. Reducing inequalities by increasing standard of living of poor.

Q.6) as a finance minister, which tax would u prefer?

Ans. As a finance minister, I would prefer both direct and indirect taxes.
Direct taxes can be a better source for growth of economy because it helps in reducing
inequalities. Where as indirect taxes is also a better source of revenue of govt. as indirect
taxes are always included in the price of a product i.e no one can evade these taxes and govt
can spend the amount of such taxes on infrastructure.

So both the taxes are favorable for economy.

Q.7) government under ujjawala yojna trying to provide LPG gas cylinders to people who
are below poverty line. Explain the concern

Ans. Reducing inequalities as govt. is trying to increase the standard of living of poor.

CHAPTER 11TH FOREIGN EXCHANGE


FOREIGN EXCHANGE refers to all currencies other than the domestic currency
of a given country. For example rupee is our domestic currency but all other
currencies are foreign exchange.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATE refers to the rate at which one currency is


exchanged for the other. It represents the price of one currency in terms of
another currency.

If 1 US$ = 60 Rs.

Then value of 1 US$ is 60 Rs. and value of 1 rupee is

1/60 = 0.0167$

CURRENCY DEPRECIATION –
Currency depreciation refers to decrease in the value of domestic currency in
terms of foreign currency. It means domestic currency is less valuable and
more of domestic currency is required to buy the foreign currency.

Example ;

1US $ = 30 Rs.

NOW, 1 US $ = 60 Rs.

It means Indian rupee is depreciating as more rupees are required to buy 1 US$
EFFECT OF CURRENCY DEPRECIATION –

1.) With same amount of dollars, foreign residents can buy more goods from
INDIA , so, our exports will rise because exports are relatively cheaper.

2.) With same amount of Indian rupees we can now exchange less dollars , so
our imports will fall.

Due to rise in exports, national income is likely to rise.

CURRENCY APPRECIATION –
It refers to increase in the value of domestic currency in terms of foreign
currency. The domestic currency becomes more valuable and less domestic
currency is required to buy foreign currency.

Example ;

1US $ = 50 Rs.

NOW, 1 US $ = 25 Rs.

It means Indian rupee is appreciating as less rupees are required to buy 1 US$
EFFECT OF CURRENCY APPRECIATION –
1.) with same amount of dollars, foreign residents can buy less goods from
INDIA i.e our exports will fall as exports are now more expensive.

2.)with same amount of Indian rupees we can now exchange more dollars and
thus our imports will increase . it means imports from USA are relatively
cheaper for us.

Due to rise in imports and fall in exports, national income is likely to fall.

NOTE;

CURRENCY DEPRECIATION MEANS our domestic goods are cheaper for foreigners
Whereas,

CURRENCY APPRECIATION MEANS foreign goods are cheaper for domestic country.

TYPES OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATE SYSTEM


1.) FIXED EXCHANGE RATE SYSTEM/ ADJUSTABLE PEG
SYSTEM
It refers to a system in which exchange rate for a currency is fixed by the
government. The basic purpose of adopting this system is to ensure stability in
foreign trade.

To achieve stability, government undertakes to buy foreign currency when the


exchange rate becomes weaker and sell foreign currency when the rate of
exchange becomes stronger. Government has to maintain large reserves of
foreign currencies so that government can maintain a fixed exchange rate.

When the value of domestic currency is tied in terms of foreign currency, it is


known as PEGGING. When the value of a currency is fixed in terms of gold,
then it is known as PARITY VALUE of currency.
For example… Government decided to maintain the rate of dollar at Rs. 40. If
exchange rate falls or become weaker like 1 $ = 34Rs. then in such a case govt
will buy more dollars to make the rate stable at Rs. 40.

Similarly, when exchange rate becomes stronger then govt will sell more dollars
to make the exchange rate stable at Rs. 40.

2.) FLEXIBLE EXCHANGE RATE SYSTEM


FLEXIBLE EXCHANGE RATE system refers to a system in which exchange
rate is determined by the market forces of demand and supply. Demand and
supply of different currencies are measured to decide the exchange rate.

The value of currency is allowed to fluctuate freely according to changes in


demand and supply of foreign currency. It is also known as floating exchange
rate system.

There is no official (govt.) intervention in the foreign exchange market. It is


also known as free exchange rate system and clean floating system.

Adopted by govt to maintain and runs through demand and
Stable economy supply.

3.)MANAGED FLOATING RATE SYSTEM


It refers to the system in which foreign exchange rate is determined by market
forces of demand and supply but central bank also influences the exchange rate
through intervention in the foreign exchange market.

It is a hybrid of fixed as well as flexible exchange rate system.

Central bank interfere in the foreign exchange market to restrict the


fluctuations in the exchange rate within certain limits. The aim is to keep
exchange rate close to desired target values.

It is also known as dirty floating.


Suppose India has a managed floating rate system and central bank(RBI)
wants to keep value of rupee close to 60 Rs per dollar. RBI is ready to tolerate
small fluctuations in the exchange rate say 59.75 to 60.25.

If value of rupee fall below 59.75 per dollar then RBI start buying or acquiring
dollars to increase the rate close to 60Rs. similarly, if value of rupee rises above
the level of 60.25 Rs per dollar then RBI will start selling more dollars to
maintain the rate close to 60Rs. per dollar.

It must be noted that dirty float means a system in which exchange rate can be
fluctuated with the help of demand and supply but exchange rate is controlled
and manipulated by RBI. However, if RBI will not interfere, then, it is called as
clean floating.

DEMAND FOR FOREIGN EXCHANGE


Foreign currency is demanded by domestic residents because of following
reasons;

1.)import of goods and services – foreign exchange is demanded to make


payment for import of goods and services.

2.)tourism – foreign exchange is needed to meet expenditure incurred in foreign


tours.

3.)unilateral transfers sent abroad – foreign exchange is required for making


unilateral transfers like sending gifts to other countries.

4.) purchase of assets in abroad – it is demanded to make payment for purchase


of assets like land, shares, bonds in abroad.

5.)speculation – demand for foreign exchange rises when people want to make
gains from appreciation of currency. i.e purchase of dollars when cheaper and
sell it when price of dollar rises.
6.) repayment of international loans – loans from foreign countries is raised in
foreign currencies and thus foreign currency will be required to repay such
loans.

Why demand for foreign currency rises when its rate falls?

1.) When price of foreign currency falls, imports from that country become
cheaper. So our imports will increase and to make payments, demand for
foreign currency increases.

2.) when price of foreign currency falls, it promotes tourism in that country
and thus demand for such foreign currency rises.

3.) when price of foreign currency falls then in order to earn profit or gain more
people will purchase foreign currency for speculation and thus demand for
foreign currency rises.

DEMAND CURVE OF FOREIGN EXCHNAGE

rate D

Demand
Demand curve of foreign exchange is downward sloping due to inverse
relationship between foreign exchange rate and demand for foreign exchange.
Demand for foreign exchange is shown on x axis and foreign exchange rate is
shown on Y axis. Downward sloping demand curve shows that more foreign
exchange is demanded at low exchange rate or vice versa.

SUPPLY OF FOREIGN EXCHNAGE


SUPPLY OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE comes from following sources;
1.) EXPORT OF GOODS AND SERVICES – supply of foreign exchange comes
from export of goods and services.
2.) FOREIGN INVESTMENT – the amount that foreigners invest in our
country brings foreign exchange in our country.
3.) REMITTANCES FROM ABROAD (UNILATERALS FROM ABROAD) –
supply of foreign exchange comes from gifts, donations and other remittances
from abroad.
4.) SPECULATION – supply of foreign exchange comes from those who want to
speculate on the value of foreign exchange.
5.) loans from abroad – borrowings from abroad can also generates foreign
currency for our country.
6.) Grants and donations from abroad – grants and donations from abroad
also leads to rise in supply of foreign currency in our country.

WHY THERE IS RISE IN SUPPLY OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE WHEN ITS RATE


RISES?
1.) When price of foreign currency rises, domestic goods become relatively
cheaper for foreigners. Foreign countries will purchase more goods from our
country, our exports will increase and thus supply of foreign exchange
increases.

2.) when price of foreign currency rises, investment in our country will increase
and thus supply of foreign currency increases.

SUPPLY CURVE OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE


S

RATE

S
SUPPLY
Supply curve of foreign exchange is upward sloping due to positive or direct
relationship between foreign exchange rate and supply of foreign exchange.

In the above diagram, supply of foreign exchange shown on X axis and foreign
exchange rate is on Y axis. The upward sloping supply curve shows that supply
of foreign exchange rises when the exchange rate rises or VICE VERSA.

DETERMINATION OF EXCHANGE RATE


FLEXIBLE exchange rate system is determined by the interaction of demand
and supply. The equilibrium exchange rate is determined at a level where
demand for foreign exchange is equal to the supply of foreign exchange.

In the given diagram, demand and supply of foreign exchange are measured on
X axis and foreign exchange rate is measured on Y axis.

DD is the downward sloping demand curve of foreign exchange and SS is the


supply curve of foreign exchange. Both the curves intersect each other at point E.
where equilibrium exchange rate is determined at OR and equilibrium
quantity is determined at OQ .
In the above diagram, OR is the equilibrium exchange rate. If exchange rate
rises then it leads to excess supply whereas, if exchange rate falls then it leads to
excess demand.

CHNAGES IN EXCHNAGE RATE –

1.) INCREASE IN DEMAND

An increase in demand of foreign exchange will shift the demand curve


towards right from D1D1 curve to D2D2 curve. As a result, exchange rate rises
from OP1 to OP2 . it means the price of dollar has increased, which means
domestic currency has depreciated.

2.) DECREASE IN DEMAND – S

Rate P

• D1

Quantity
A decrease in demand will shift the demand curve towards left from DD curve to
D1D1 curve. As a result , exchange rate will fall from OP to OP1 , which means
price of dollar has decreased i.e domestic currency is appreciating.

3.) INCREASE IN SUPPLY


if supply of foreign exchange increases, it will lead to rightward shift in supply
curve from SS curve to S1S1 curve. As a result, new exchange rate moves down
from OR to OR1. It means price of dollar has decreased and domestic currency
is appreciating.

4.) DECREASE IN SUPPLY S1

RATE

QUANTITY
A decrease in supply of foreign exchange will shift the supply curve towards left
from SS to S1S1 curve. As a result, exchange rate will increase. It means that
price of dollar has increased and thus domestic currency is depreciated.

CH – 12 BALANCE OF PAYMENTS (BOP)


Balance of payment is an accounting statement that provides a systematic
record of all economic transactions between residents of a country and rest of
the world in a given period of time.

BOP is a flow concept as it is concerned with period of time.

In the above meaning residents means individuals, firms and government


agencies.

ECONOMIC – TRANSACTIONS

ECONOMIC TRANSACTIONS refer to those transactions which involve


transfer of the ownership of goods, services, money and assets. Economic
transactions are as follows;
1.) VISIBLE ITEMS –

These include all types of physical goods which are exported and imported. These
are called visible items because they are made of some matter or material and
can be seen and touched.

2.) INVISIBLE ITEMS –

Invisible items of trade refer to all types of services like shipping, banking,
insurance etc. which are given and received. These are called invisible items
because they cannot be seen , felt, touched or measured.

3.) UNILATERAL TRANSFERS –

Unilateral transfers include gifts, remittances and other one way transactions.
Since these transactions do not involve any claim of repayment , they are also
known as unrequited transfers.

4.) CAPITAL TRANSFERS –

Capital transfers relate to capital receipts and payments. Capital receipts like
sale of assets and borrowings where as capital payments means purchase of
assets and repayment of borrowings. it basically involves assets , loans and
investment.

STRUCTURE OF BOP

BOP uses the double entry system for recording the transactions with rest of the
world. BOP has two sides

(i) CREDIT SIDE – all inflows of foreign exchange are recorded on the credit
side.

(ii) DEBIT SIDE – all the outflows of foreign exchange are recorded on the debit
side.

BOP IS OF THREE TYPES;


1.) BALANCED BOP – BOP is balanced when receipts of foreign exchange are
equal to payments of foreign exchange.

2.) SURPLUS BOP – BOP is in surplus when receipts of foreign exchange are
more than payments of foreign exchange.

3.) DEFICIT BOP – BOP is in deficit when receipts of foreign exchange are less
than payments of foreign exchange.

QUES . IS BOP ALWAYS BALANCED?

ANS. It must be noted that in the accounting sense BOP is always balanced by
showing net balances on debit and credit side, as per double entry system. But
in operational sense or economic sense, BOP need not be equal always. It can be
balanced , surplus or deficit in economic sense.

BALANCE OF TRADE (BOT)


Balance of trade refers to difference between amount of exports and imports of
visible items(goods)

BOT = exports of goods - imports of goods

Exports are entered as credit side or positive items in BOT while imports are
entered as debit side or negative side of BOT . BOT is just a part of BOP.

BOT is also known as balance of visible trade or trade balance.

BALANCE OF TRADE IS ALSO OF THREE TYPES;

When export of goods are exactly equal to import of goods , then it is known as
balanced BOT.
When export of goods are more than import of goods , then it is known as
surplus BOT or favourable BOT

When exports of goods are less than import of goods , then it is known as deficit
BOT or unfavourable BOT

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BOP AND BOT


BASIS BOP BOT
MEANING it is an accounting statement BOT is the difference
That provides a systematic between amount of
Record of all economic exports and amount of
Transactions between residents imports of visible items.
Of a country and rest of the
world.

COMPONENTS it includes visible items, it includes only


Invisible items, unilateral visible items.
And capital transfers

Capital it records all transactions it does not record


Transactions of capital nature any transaction of
capital nature

scope it is a wider concept it is a narrow concept

settlement unfavorable BOP cannot unfavorable BOT can

favorable BOP

COMPONENTS OF BOP

CURRENT ACCOUNT CAPITAL ACCOUNT


1.) Visible items (goods) capital transactions;
2.) Invisible items (services) 1.) Immovable assets
3.) Unilaterals (gifts, donations etc) 2.) Loans
4.) Rent, interest and profits 3.) Investments
5.) Movable assets like machinery
Spare parts etc

CURRENT ACCOUNT

Current account refers to an account which records all the transactions relating
to export and import of goods, services and unilateral transfers during a given
period of time. It includes receipts and payments of visible items, invisible
items and unilateral.

It is a flow concept

It must be noted that transactions of current account do not affect assets or


liabilities of our country and do not increase any future claims. It just affects
income of current year.

COMPONENTS OF CURRENT ACCOUNT –

1.) EXPORT AND IMPORT OF GOODS/VISIBLE TRADE/MERCHANDISE TRADE

A major part of transactions in foreign trade is in the form of export and import
of goods or movable assets. Payment for import of goods is written on negative
side or debit side whereas, receipts from export of goods are written on credit side
or positive side. Balance of these receipts and payments is called balance of
trade or visible trade.

2.) EXPORT AND IMPORT OF SERVICE/ INVISIBLE TRADE

It includes a large variety of non-factor services sold and purchased by


residents of the country. Payments are either received or made to the other
countries for use of services . services includes mainly insurance , shipping
and banking. Payment of these services are recorded on debit(negative side)
and receipts of these services are recorded on credit(positive side)

3.) UNILATERALS / UNREQUITED TRANSFERS / ONE SIDED TRANSACTIONS

It include gifts, donations, remittances and other one way transactions which
do not involve any claim of repayment. Receipt of these transfers from abroad
is recorded on credit side where as payments of these transfers to abroad is
recorded on debit side. It is basically those receipts and payments which take
place without any service in return.

4.) INCOME RECEIPTS AND PAYMENTS

It includes income in the form of rent , interest and profits generated on capital
transactions.

NOTE – current account is different from balance of trade. BOT records only
visible items(goods) whereas current account records visible items, invisible
items as well as unilateral transfers.

CURRENT ACCOUNT IS OF three types;

1.) Balanced current account arises when credit items are exactly equal to debit
items.

2.) Surplus current account arises when credit items are more than debit items.

3.) Deficit current account arises when credit items are less than debit items.

CAPITAL ACCOUNT;

Capital account of BOP records all those transactions between residents of a


country and rest of the world which cause a change in assets or liabilities of the
residents of the country or its government.

Capital account is used to finance deficit of current account or absorb surplus


of current account.
It is a stock concept.

Transactions of capital account do not affect income of our country, rather it


affects assets and liabilities position of our country.
COMPONENTS OF CAPITAL ACCOUNT

1.) BORROWINGS AND LENDINGS

All transactions relating to borrowings from abroad by private sector and


government will be recorded on credit side of capital account , whereas lending
of funds to the abroad by private sector and government will be recorded on
debit side.

It must be noted that recovery of loans given to abroad will be recorded on credit
side and payment of loans taken from abroad is recorded on debit side.
2.) INVESTMENTS

Investment by foreigners in shares of Indian companies or real estate. Such


investments will be recorded on credit(positive side) of capital account as they
leads to inflow of foreign exchange in our country.

Whereas, investment by Indian residents in shares of foreign companies or real


estate. Such investments will be recorded on debit(negative side) of capital
account as it leads to outflow of foreign exchange from our country.

INVESTMENTS ARE OF TWO TYPES;

1.) FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT (FDI) – it refers to purchase of an asset


which gives direct control to the purchaser on the asset. Like purchase of land
and building.

2.) PORTFOLIO INVESTMENT (FII) – it refers to purchase of an investment


which does not give direct control to the purchaser on the asset. Like purchase of
shares.
3.) CHANGE IN FOREIGN EXCHNAGE RESERVES

Foreign exchange reserves are financial assets of the government held by RBI.
Any withdrawal from these reserves is recorded on credit side whereas any
deposit in these reserves is recorded on debit side.

It must be noted that BOP never records the total foreign exchange reserves, it
only records the change in these reserves during the year.

CAPITAL ACCOUNT IS OF THREE TYPES;

1.) Balanced capital account arises when credit items of capital account are
exactly equals to debit item of capital account

2.) Surplus capital account arises when credit items of capital account are more
than debit items of capital account.

3.) Deficit capital account arises when credit items of capital account are less
than debit items of capital account.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CURRENT ACCOUNT AND CAPITAL ACCOUNT (VERY VERY IMP.)

AUTONOMOUS AND ACCOMODATING ITEMS


AUTONOMOUS ITEMS –
Autonomous items refer to those international economic transactions which
take place due to some economic motive such as profit maximization. These
transactions are also known as above the line items.

These transactions are independent with the state of BOP because it occurred
only for profit motive. These transactions can take place in current account as
well as capital account.

ACCOMODATING ITEMS –

It refer to the transactions that are undertaken to cover deficit or surplus of


autonomous transactions. These transactions are occurred due to net
consequences of autonomous transactions.

These transactions are also known as below the line items.

Accommodating transactions are compensating transactions which are meant


to correct the disequilibrium of autonomous transactions.

ORT ( Official Reserve Transactions)


It refers to transactions by the RBI that cause changes in the reserves of foreign
exchange. Such transactions take place when a country withdraws from its
stock of foreign exchange reserves to finance the deficit in BOP account.
Similarly when there is surplus in BOP then it leads to rise in stock of foreign
exchange reserves.

OFFICIAL RESERVE TRANSACTIONS are very important as they help to


bring a balance in state of BOP.

COMBINED QUESTIONS BOP AND FOREIGN EXCHANGE (very very imp.)

Q.1) how does giving incentives for exports affect the foreign exchange rate?

ANS. Due to increase in exports of our country the supply of foreign exchange will increase in our country.

Due to rise in supply of foreign exchange, foreign exchange rate will fall and domestic currency (Rs.) will
appreciate.

Q.2) how does rise in imports will affect the foreign exchange rate?

ANS. Due to rise in imports of our country, the demand of foreign exchange will increase to make payment for
imports.

Due to rise in demand, foreign exchange rate will also rise and thus domestic currency will depreciate.

Q.3) how does NRI deposits affect the foreign exchange rate?
ANS. With increase in NRI deposits the supply of foreign exchange will increase in our country. Due to rise in
supply of foreign exchange, foreign exchange rate will fall and domestic currency will appreciate.

Q.4) recently government of INDIA has doubled the import duty of gold. How it will impact foreign exchange
rate?

ANS. Due to increase in import duty, our imports will reduce and thus demand of foreign exchange will also
reduce. Due to fall in demand of foreign exchange, foreign exchange rate will fall and domestic currency will
appreciate.

Q.5) visit of foreign countries by INDIANS is rising day by day. Show the impact on foreign exchange rate.

ANS. Due to rise in tourism to abroad by INDIANS, the demand for foreign exchange will also increase. It leads to
rise in foreign exchange rate and domestic currency will depreciate.

Q.6) how increase in interest on investment in our economy will affect the foreign exchange rate?

ANS. With increase in interest rate on investment in our economy, foreign direct investment will also increase.
Thus, supply of foreign currency in our country will also increase. Due to rise in supply of foreign exchange,
foreign exchange rate will decline and domestic currency will appreciate.

Q.7) foreign exchange rate is rising. Show the impact on exports and imports?

ANS. 1 US$ = 20Rs to 1US$ = 40Rs. it means with same amount of dollars, foreign residents can now buy
more goods from INDIA and our exports will increase. But at the same time, with same amount of rupees, we
can now exchange less dollars, thus our imports will reduce.

Q.8) foreign exchange rate is falling. Show the impact on exports and imports?

ANS. 1US$ = 50Rs. to IUS$ = 25Rs. it means with same amount of dollars , foreign residents can now
buy less goods from INDIA and our exports will reduce. But at the same time, with same amount of rupees, we
can now exchange more dollars and thus our imports will increase.

Q.9) foreign exchange rate is rising. What will be the likely impact on national income?

Ans. National income is likely to rise. (explain currency depreciation for 4 to 6 marks)

Q.10) foreign exchange rate is falling. What will be the likely impact on national income?
Ans. National income is likely to fall. (explain currency depreciation for 4 to 6 marks)

NOTE –Above Questions from 1 to 6 must be explained with diagrams in board.

Ans. (a) it will be recorded on the credit side of capital account. (b) it will be recorded on the
dr. side of current account. (c) it will be recorded on dr. side of current account.

Q.4) where sale of machinery to abroad be recorded in BOP account. Give reasons

Ans. Sale of machinery will be recorded in cr. Side of current account. Sale of machinery will
lead to inflow of foreign exchange and thus recorded on cr. Side. Machinery , a movable assets
will be part of goods i.e current account

Q.5) INDIAN investors lend abroad. In which account and which side will be recorded?
Explain this impact on foreign exchange rate.
Ans. Indians lending abroad, it will be recorded on dr. side of capital account. It will be
recorded in capital account as investment affects assets and liabilities position of country. It will
be recorded on dr. side as it leads to outflow of foreign exchange.

When investors lend more money to abroad, then it will create demand of foreign exchange.
Rise in demand of foreign exchange leads to rise in foreign exchange rate and Indian rupees
will depreciate.

Q.6) MAKE IN INDIA and imports of pulses, show its effect on BOP.

Ans. Make in India will lead to increase in foreign investment in India and thus it leads inflow
of foreign exchange and BOP will be in surplus.

Import of pulses from abroad will lead to payment of foreign exchange, so there will be
outflow of foreign exchange and BOP will be in deficit

Q.7) explain current account deficit and current account surplus? State its significance

Ans. Current account deficit means receipts of current account are less than payments of
current account. Current account surplus means receipts of current account are more than
payments of current account. Current account deficit signifies that our country is a borrower
from abroad while current account surplus signifies that our country is a lender to abroad.

in income, consumption will also rise , thus it will be upward sloping , 6.) No, AD
will be positive slope with rise in Income. 7.) total Income will always be equal to
AS 8.) Income minus consumption 9.) Equal 10.) zero savings at break even

Q.10) what will be the slope of savings curve and why?

Q.11) negative intercept of savings curve on y axis will always be equal to positive
intercept of consumption curve on y axis. True or false? Give reason for your
answer.

ANSWERS:

1.) consumption expenditure 2.) break-even point 3.) zero and one

4.) equal to national income and APC will be one 5.) APC is 6/10 and APS is 4/10
and income is 1000. Put the formula of APC = C/Y so, C will be 600

6.) greater proportion 7.) because poor people spends more on their
consumption when their income rises as most of their needs are unsatisfied

8.) MPC will be zero 9.) no, MPC can never be more than 1 because change in
consumption can never be more than change in income. 10.) savings curve will be
upward sloping because savings rises with rise in Income. 11.) True because at
zero income whatever we will consume will be extracted from past savings and
thus c and (-)c will be equal.

ASSIGNMENT 3rd ( APS to Meanings at last)


Q.1) which of the following can have the value of more than 1 and less than zero
(negative)? (a) APC (b) APS (c) MPC (d) MPS. Write about all.

Q.6) _________ Investment curve is upward sloping and it is income ______

Q.7) what is the formula of consumption and savings function to calculate


consumption and savings?

Q.8) APC can never be ______ but APS possess the same value.

Q.9) C = 120 + 0.4(Y). What is the value of autonomous consumption, MPC and
MPS in this?

Q.10) If MPC is 3 times of MPS, calculate MPC and MPS.

Answers:

1.) APC can be more than 1 when C > Y but can never be negative as consumption
can never be negative , APS can never be more than 1 because savings never be
more than income but APS can be negative at the time of Dis-savings , MPC and
MPS both can never be negative and can never be more than 1

2.) If MPC and MPS both are equal, so both will be 0.5 as MPC + MPS = 1. So,
change in consumption and change in savings will be 500 and 500 respectively if
change in Income is 1000.

3.) NO, APS can never be one because savings can never be equal to Income as
consumption can never be zero.
4.) MPS will be one and MPC will be zero

5.) Savings will be zero 6.) Induced investment curve will be upward sloping and
It is Income elastic

7.) C = c + MPC(y) S = -c + MPS(y)

8.) ZERO and negative 9.) autonomous consumption is 120, MPC is 0.4 and MPS
is 0.6

10.) MPC = 3 MPS

As, MPC + MPS = 1

3MPS + MPS = 1

4MPS = 1

MPS = ¼ = 0.25

So, MPC will be 0.75

reasons.

Q.9) Investment Multiplier is 10 times, what will be MPC and MPS.

Q.10) Investment Multiplier works in both directions that is forward direction as


well as backward direction and thus it is called ______________

Answers: 1.) MPC is the slope of consumption curve and MPS is the slope of
savings curve. 2.) FALSE, investment multiplier is increase in income due to
increase in investment. 3.) lower will be multiplier 4.) Maximum value infinity
5.) Minimum value one 6.) as we know MPC + MPS = 1, as both are equal so,
MPC will be 0.5 and MPS will also be 0.5, SO, K = 1/ MPS. So K will be 2 times

7.) when planned savings will be more than planned investment, then due to
more savings, consumption will be less and thus AD will be less and thus
inventory will accumulate/increase.

8.) False, because with rise in MPC, K will also Rise

9.) K = 1/ MPS means 10 = 1/MPS so, MPS = 1/10, so MPS will be 0.1 and MPC
will be 0.9
10.) Double edged weapon.

ASSIGNMENT 3RD OF CH 8th (NUMERICALS)


Q.1) consumption function in an economy is given as C = 40 + 0.8Y . calculate the total increase in
income and increase in consumption if investment expenditure increases by 500 Rs.

Q.2) in an economy investment expenditure increases by 2000. Calculate the increase in income and
increase in consumption if ratio of MPC and MPS is 4:1

Q.3) savings function is given as S = -40 + 0.25Y , if planned investment is 100 Rs. then calculate
equilibrium level of income , level of consumption at this level and savings at this level.

Q.4) CALCULATE the value of MPC if in an economy with increase in investment, income rises 4 times
more than increase in investment.

Q.5) in an economy, the investment expenditure is 100 crores and consumption function is C = 250 +
0.8Y. (i) determine the equilibrium level of income. (ii) Find the equilibrium level of income again
if planned investment expenditure rises by 100 crores. (iii) value of multiplier due to increase in
investment.

Q.6) In an economy, autonomous Investment is 100 and the consumption is C = 80+0.4(Y). find out
whether the equilibrium level of Income exists at Rs. 400 or not.

Q.7) Calculate the value of Multiplier if Entire additional Income is saved.

SOLUTION 1st :

1.) C = 40+0.8Y and delta I is given as 500.

Here, 0.8 is the value of MPC, so, MPS will be 0.2


K = 1 / MPS , K = 1 / 0.2 , K = 5 times.
K = DELTA Y / DELTA I
5 times = DELTA Y / 500
DELTA Y = 2500.

NOW PUT THE FORMULA OF MPC,


MPC = DELTA C / DELTA Y
0.8 = DELTA C / 2500
DELTA C = 2000
SO, DELTA Y 2500 AND DELTA C = 2000

SOLUTION 2nd:
DELTA I = 2000 and ratio of MPC and MPS is 4 : 1
So, MPC is 4/5 means 0.8 and MPS is 1/5 means 0.2
As we know, K = 1 / MPS
K = 1/0.2 , K = 5 times.

K = DELTA Y / DELTA I
5 times = DELTA Y / 2000
DELTA Y = 10,000

MPC = DELTA C / DELTA Y


0.8 = DELTA C / 10,000
DELTA C = 8000.

Solution 3rd:
S = -40+ 0.25Y and I is given as 100.
As we know, at equ. Level, S = I
SO,
-40 + 0.25 Y = 100
0.25 Y = 140
Y = 140 / 0.25
Y = 560

THEN, S = -40 +0.25Y


S = -40 + 0.25(560)
S = -40 + 140
S = 100
And also, at equ. S is always equal to I
NOW,
Y=C+S
560 = C + 100
C = 460

Solution 4th:
Income rises 4 times more than of increase in Investment
So, K will be 5 times.
K = 1/MPS
5 times = 1 / MPS
MPS = 1/5
MPS = 0.2

AS, MPC + MPS = 1


MPC + 0.2 = 1
MPC will be 0.8

Solution 5th:
C = 250+ 0.8Y and I is given as 100.
So, at equ.
Y = c + MPC(Y) + I
Y = 250+ 0.8Y + 100
Y = 350+ 0.8 Y
Y – 0.8Y = 350
0.2 Y = 350
Y = 350/ 0.2
Y = 1750

NOW, investment rises by 100, so I is now 200.


Put same formula again with I = 200

Y = c + MPC(Y) + I
Y = 250+ 0.8Y + 200
Y = 450+ 0.8 Y
Y – 0.8Y = 450
0.2 Y = 450
Y = 450/ 0.2
Y = 2250

NOW,
First Y is 1750 and second Y is 2250
Delta Y is 500
Similarly
First I is 100 and second I is 200
Delta I is 100

K = DELTA Y / DELTA I
K = 500/ 100
K = 5 times.

You cannot calculate K with MPC and MPS here, because question already said calculate K with change
in Income and Investment

SOLUTION 6th:
C = 80+ 0.4Y and I is 100
At equ.
Y = c + MPC(Y) + I
Y = 80+ 0.4Y + 100
Y = 180+ 0.4Y
Y - 0.4Y = 180
0.6 Y = 180
Y = 180/ 0.6
Y = 300
So, Equilibrium level exists at 300 and not at 400.

Solution 7th :
If entire additional Income is saved,
So, MPS will be 1 and MPC will be 0

So, K = 1 / MPS
K=1/1
K will be 1 time

Now,
NDPfc 52500 + rec. from abroad – paid to abroad = NNPfC 53,200
Now,
NNPfc we have 53200 and NNPmp is already given 55,500
Difference between these two is indirect tax and subsidies.
So,
NNPMP – indirect tax + subsidies = NNPfc
55,500 – 4400 + subsidies = 53,200
By solving, subsidies will be 2100
Ans is 2100.

Ans 4.)
a) FC > MP…it is possible when IT is less than subsidies or when NIT is negative
b) NATIONAL < DOMESTIC…it is possible when NFIA is negative
c) MP = FC….it is possible when NIT is zero.

Ans 5. YES in closed economy, NDP is equal to NNP because closed economy
does not contain abroad and thus NFIA will be zero.

activity is called ___________

Q.3) If value addition is 200 and value of output is 850. Calculate intermediate
consumption. Show working.
Q.4) Units sold x Price = _____________

Q.5) units produced x PRICE = _____________

Q.6) For calculating the national Income from Value Added Method, we need to
sum up all the value additions of all sectors. True or false.

Q.7) Your mom paid 3500/- salary to maid for her sanitation services during this
month at your home. Thereafter, your mom started cooking in kitchen and
made some delicious dishes for entire family. Treat the above in calculating
National income.

Q.8) Inventory (change in stock) will be included in National Income as it is a


part of _________.

Q.9) double counting can be avoided by ___________.

Q.10) Goods produced and self consumed by producer will be included in


national Income. Why?

Q.11) services for self consumption i.e domestic services will not be Included in
National Income. Why?

Answer:
1.) Product method and output method.
2.) Value addition / value added
3.) Value of output – IC = value addition
850 - IC = 200
IC = 650
4.) SALES
5.) Value of output
6.) FALSE, because with addition of value added by all sectors we will get
GDPmp not National Income.
7.) salary paid to maid 3500/- will be included in national Income as maid
provided factor services in return but services of MOM will not be included in
national income as its monetary value cannot be calculated.
8.) Assets or Capital Formation
9.) final output method and by value addition method (write any one)
10.) if goods are self consumed, then it will be included in NY as its monetary
value can be calculated and moreover it’s a part of current year output.
11.) because its monetary value cannot be calculated.

per unit 10, Net change in stock (-) 50, Intermediate cost 10,000 and subsidy
500. Calculate net value added at factor cost.

Answers:

Solution 1st –
NDPfc 100 + depreciation 30 = GDPfc 130.
So,
GDPfc 130 + IT NIL – subsidies 15 = GDPmp 115
Then,
Value of output – I.C = GDPmp
300 – IC = 115
So, IC = 185

Solution 2nd:
Asset value / life = depreiation
Depreciation = 15 / 5 = 3.

Sales + change in stock + self consumption – IC = GDPmp


25 + (-) 2 + 0 – 6 = GDPmp
GDPmp = 17.

GDPmp – depreciation = NDPmp


17 – 3 = 14.
SO, NDPmp = 14.

Solution 3rd:
NDPfc + depreciation = GDPfc
2000 + 700 = 2700
Then, GDPfc + IT – subsidies = GDPmp
2700 + 0 – 200 = GDPmp
So, GDPmp = 2500.

SALES + change in stock – IC = GDPmp


Sales + 500 – 3000 = 2500

SALES = 5000.

Solution 4th :

FIRM A Sales 300 + 200 + 500


Change in stock zero
Self consumption zero
- IC 400 + 100
= GDPmp = 500
FIRM B Sales 400 + 200 + 300
Change in stock zero
Self consumption zero
- IC 300 + 100
= GDPmp 500

FIRM C Sales 100 + 100 + 100 + 900


Change in stock zero
Self consumption zero
- IC 200 + 200
= GDPmp = 800

FIRM D
Sales 700 + Exports 300
Change in stock 200
Self consumption zero
- IC 300 + 100
= GDPmp = 800

Solution 5th:
Units sold x price = SALES
2000 Units x 10 = SALES
SALES = 20,000

Sales + change in stocks + self consumption – IC = GDPmp


20,000 + (-)50 + 0 – 10,000 = GDPmp
GDPmp = 9950.

Now,
GDPmp 9950 – depre 600 = NDPmp
NDPmp = 9350

Now,
NDPmp 9350 – IT + Susidies = NDPfc
9350 – 400 + 500 = NDPfc
So, NDPfc = 9450

Q.4) Calculate GDPmp by value added and income method.

Purchase of fuel and power 1200 , sales 1900 , closing stock 1000 , rent 10 , opening stock 300 ,
compensation of employees 950 , profits 285 , NFIA (-20) , corporate savings 35 , corporate
taxes 200 , interest 5 , depreciation 40 , net indirect taxes 10 , mixed income 100

SOLUTIONS:

1st answer
By Income Method –
Compensation of employees = 3500.
Operating surplus = Rent + Royalty + INTEREST + Profits
= 700 + 0 + 1000 + (1500+300+200)
= 3700
Mixed Income = 0

COE + OS + MI = NDPfc
3500 + 3700 + 0 = NDPfc
So, NDPfc = 7200

NOW, BY VALUE ADDED METHOD:


Sales + change in stock – IC = GDPmp
10,000 + 1000 – 2500 = GDPmp
So, GDPmp = 8500

Now,
GDPmp – depre – NIT = NDPfc
8500 – 500 – 800 = NDPfc
NDPfc = 7200

SOLUTION 2ND:
Compensation of Employees = 600
Operating Surplus = Rent + Interest + Profits + Royalty
= 350 + 200 + 0
= 550
Mixed Income = 850

So, COE + OS + MI = NDPfc


600 + 550 + 850 = NDPfc
NDPfc = 2000

Now,
NDPfc 2000 + depre 200 = GDPfc 2200
Then, GDPfc 2200 + IT 160 – subsidies 40 = GDPmp 2320

Now, GDPmp 2320 + NFIA (-) 100 = GNPmp


GNPmp = 2220

Solution 3rd:
COE = 2500 + 1000 + 2500 + 5000 = 11,000
OS = 1300 + 3000 + (300 + 600 + 1400)
OS = 6600

MI = 0

So, NDPfc = 11,000 + 6600 + 0


NDPfc = 17,600

Now, NDPfc + depre + IT – SUBSIDIES = GDPmp


So, GDPmp = 16,600.

As per value added method….


SALES + CHANGE IN STOCK – IC = GDPmp
SALES + 200 – 1400 = 16,600
SALES = 17,800
SOLUTION 4th
Value added method:
Sales + change in stock – IC = GDPmp
1900 + 700 – 1200 = GDPmp
GDPmp = 1400

INCOME METHOD:
COE = 950
OS = 10 + 5 + 285 = 300
MI = 100

Then, NDPfc = 950 + 300 + 100


NDPfc = 1350

NDPfc + depre + NIT = GDPmp


1350 + 40 + 10 = GDPmp
So, GDPmp = 1400

10.

SOLUTIONS:

ANS 1.)
Net domestic fixed capital formation 3400
+ change in stock 600
= net domestic capital formation 4000

Gross domestic capital formation 5000 is already given


Difference between above two is depreciation which is 1000.

Now,
PFCE + GFCE + EXP. OF NPO + GROSS DOMESTIC CAPITAL FORMATION + NET EXPORTS
2250 + 1250 + 0 + 5000 + 50
= GDPmp = 8550

GDPmp – depre – IT + subsidies + NFIA = NNPfc


8550 – 1000 – 1050 + 2000 – 200 = 8300
So, NNPfc = 8300

ANS 2nd :
EXP. Method
PFCE + GFCE + EXP. OF NPO + GROSS DOMESTIC CAPITAL FORMATION + NET EX. = GDPmp
1450 + 400 + 0 + (200+50+50) – 50 = 2100
So, GDPmp = 2100

Now,
GDPmp – Depre – IT + subsidies = NDPfc
2100 – 50 – 100 + 0 = 1950
NDPfc = 1950

Value added method:


Value of output – IC = GDPmp
4100 – (600+700+700) = GDPmp
GDPmp = 2100

Now,
GDPmp – Depre – IT + subsidies = NDPfc
2100 – 50 – 100 + 0 = 1950
NDPfc = 1950

Ans 3.
EXP. Method
PFCE + GFCE + EXP. OF NPO + GROSS DOMESTIC CAPITAL FORMATION + NET EX. = GDPmp
900 + 150 + 0 + (300+50) – 50 = GDPmp
GDPmp = 1350

GDPmp – depre – IT + subsidies + NFIA = NNPfc


1350 – 50 – 250 + 50 + 50 = NNPfc
NNPfc = 1150

INCOME METHOD:
COE = 400
Operating surplus = 60+ 200+ 340 = 600
MI = 100
NDPfc = 1100

NDPfc + NFIA = NNPfc


1100 + 50 = 1150

Ans 4.
VALUE ADDED METHOD:
VALUE OF OUTPUT – IC = GDPmp
(300+200+100) – (100+50+50) = GDPmp
GDPmp = 400

GDPmp – depre – NIT + NFIA = NNPfc


400 – 40 – 20 – 10 = NNPfc
So, NNPfc = 330

Income Method:
COE = 150
Operating Surplus = 140
MI = 50
NDPfc = 340

NDPfc + NFIA = NNPfc


340 – 10 = 330
