What does the word “Net” indicate in both NNP and NDP?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Depreciation has been deducted
In national-income accounting, Net means that consumption of fixed capital, commonly called depreciation, has been deducted from a gross measure. Thus, NNP = GNP − depreciation and NDP = GDP − depreciation. NFIA is used to move between domestic and national concepts, while NIT is used to distinguish market price from factor cost. Therefore, option A is correct.
