Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate GDP at Market Prices

To calculate the GDP at market prices, we use the expenditure approach formula: \[ \text{GDP} = \text{Consumption} + \text{Gross Investment} + \text{Government Spending} + (\text{Exports} - \text{Imports}) \]

Given data:

  • Consumption = 548
  • Gross Investment = 148
  • Government Spending = 236
  • Exports = 176
  • Imports = 198

\[ \text{GDP} = 548 + 148 + 236 + (176 - 198) \] \[ \text{GDP} = 548 + 148 + 236 - 22 \] \[ \text{GDP} = 910 \]

Step 2: Calculate NDP at Basic Prices

To calculate the Net Domestic Product (NDP) at basic prices, we subtract depreciation from GDP and adjust for net taxes on products: \[ \text{NDP} = \text{GDP} - \text{Depreciation} \]

Given data:

  • Depreciation = 84

\[ \text{NDP} = 910 - 84 \] \[ \text{NDP} = 826 \]

Step 3: Calculate Net National Product at Basic Prices

To calculate the Net National Product (NNP) at basic prices, we adjust NDP for net foreign factor income: \[ \text{NNP} = \text{NDP} + \text{Net Foreign Factor Income} \]

Given data:

  • Net Foreign Factor Income = -12

\[ \text{NNP} = 826 - 12 \] \[ \text{NNP} = 814 \]

Final Answer

  1. The value of GDP at market prices is $910.
  2. The value of NDP at basic prices is $826.
  3. The value of net national product at basic prices is $814.
