Residents receive ₹530 crore as factor income from abroad and foreigners receive ₹640 crore from the country. If NNP is ₹7,800 crore, what is NDP?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: ₹7,910 crore
First calculate NFIA: income received from abroad minus income paid to foreigners = ₹530 − ₹640 = −₹110 crore. The relationship is NNP = NDP + NFIA. Therefore NDP = NNP − NFIA = ₹7,800 − (−₹110) = ₹7,910 crore. Option C is correct. The negative NFIA must be subtracted, which increases NDP relative to NNP; option A uses the wrong sign.
