Q. Which of the following is required to be followed while computing the national income estimates?
Answer: The value of exports to be added and the value of imports to be subtracted
Notes: National income is also computed by the expenditure approach wherein the focus is on finding the total output of a nation by finding the total amount of money spent. As per this approach, GDP= C+I+G+ (X-M) where, C = household consumption expenditures / personal consumption expenditures I = gross private domestic investment; G = government consumption and gross investment expenditures; X = gross exports of goods and services; and M = gross imports of goods and services. (X - M) is often written as XN, which stands for "net exports".
