If factor income received from abroad is 300 and factor income paid abroad is 380, what will be the net factor income from abroad?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: −80
Net factor income from abroad is calculated as factor income received from abroad minus factor income paid abroad. Thus, NFIA = 300 − 380 = −80. The negative value shows that residents received 80 less from abroad than the factor income paid to non-residents. Therefore, option C is correct; 80 would incorrectly ignore the negative sign.
