Quiz Description

In this quiz, we shall look at national income. The study of national income in economics has to deal with Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Gross National Product (GNP), and the Net Domestic Product (NDP), among others. We will focus more on the explanation and understanding of these three terms throughout the quiz.

National income generally refers to the value of the goods and services produced by a nation or country during a financial year. Hence, it is the net results of all the economic activities of a nation during a period of 1 year, and it’s evaluated in terms of money. In the introduction, we made mention of GDP, GNP, and NDP. GDP, in other words, refers to the financial measure of the market value of the goods and services produced at a particular time. On the other hand, GNP refers to the total value of goods and services produced by citizens of a country in a given financial year,  irrespective of their situation (or location). Finally, NDP is obtained by: NDP = GDP - Depreciation, and it is defined as an annual measure of the economic output of a country that is adjusted to consider depreciation.
