National Income dan Product Accounts
•
National income and product accounts
are data collected and published by the government describing the various components of national income and output in the economy.
• The Department of Commerce is responsible for producing and maintaining the “National Income and Product Accounts” that keep track of GDP.

Produk Domestik Bruto
•
Gross domestic product (GDP)
is the total market value of all final goods and services produced within a given period by factors of production located within a country.

Barangan dan Jasa Akhir
• The term
final goods and services
refers to goods and services produced for final use.
•
Intermediate goods
are goods produced by one firm for use in further processing by another firm.

Pertambahan Nilai
•
Value added
is the difference between the value of goods as they leave a stage of production and the cost of the goods as they entered that stage.
• In calculating GDP, we can either sum up the value added at each stage of production, or we can take the value of final sales. We do not use the value of total sales in an economy to measure how much output has been produced.

Exclusions from GDP
• GDP ignores all transactions in which money or goods change hands but in which no new goods and services are produced.

PDB Versus PNB
• GDP is the value of output produced by factors of production
located within a country
. Output produced by a country’s citizens, regardless of where the output is produced, is measured by
gross national product (GNP).

Perhitungan PDB
• • GDP can be computed in two ways:
The expenditure approach
: A method of computing GDP that measures the amount spent on all final goods during a given period.
The income approach
: A method of computing GDP that measures the income —wages, rents, interest, and profits —received by all factors of production in producing final goods.

Personal Consumption Expenditures
• Personal consumption expenditures (C) are expenditures by consumers on the following: •
Durable goods
: Goods that last a relatively long time, such as cars and household appliances.
•
Nondurable goods
: Goods that are used up fairly quickly, such as food and clothing.
•
Services
: The things that we buy that do not involve the production of physical things, such as legal and medical services and education.

Gross Private Domestic Investment
•
Investment
refers to the purchase of new capital.
• Total investment by the private sector is called
gross private domestic investment
. It includes the purchase of new housing, plants, equipment, and inventory by the private (or non-government) sector.

Gross Private Domestic Investment
•
Nonresidential investment
includes expenditures by firms for machines, tools, plants, and so on.
•
Residential investment
includes expenditures by households and firms on new houses and apartment buildings.
•
Change in inventories
computes the amount by which firms’ inventories change during a given period. Inventories are the goods that firms produce now but intend to sell later.

Gross Investment versus Net Investment
• •
Gross investment
is the total value of all newly produced capital goods (plant, equipment, housing, and inventory) produced in a given period.
•
Depreciation
an asset’s value falls in a given period.
is the amount by which
Net investment
equals gross investment minus depreciation.
capital end of period = capital beginning of period + net investment © 2002 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Principles of Economics, 6/e Karl Case, Ray Fair
Government Consumption and Gross Investment
•
Government consumption and gross investment (G
) counts expenditures by federal, state, and local governments for final goods and services.

Net Exports
•
Net exports (EX – IM)
is the difference between exports (sales to foreigners of U.S.-produced goods and services) and imports (U.S. purchases of goods and services from abroad). The figure can be positive or negative.

is the total income of households. Equals (national income) minus (corporate profits minus dividends) minus (social insurance payments) plus (interest income received from the government and households).
• Personal income is the income received by households after paying social insurance taxes but before paying personal income taxes.

Disposable Personal Income and Personal Saving
• The
personal saving rate
is the percentage of disposable personal income that is saved. If the personal saving rate is low, households are spending a large amount relative to their incomes; if it is high, households are spending cautiously.

Nominal versus Real GDP
• Nominal GDP is GDP measured in
current dollars
, or the current prices we pay for things. Nominal GDP includes all the components of GDP valued at their current prices.
• When a variable is measured in current dollars, it is described in
nominal terms
.
© 2002 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Principles of Economics, 6/e Karl Case, Ray Fair
Calculating Real GDP
• A
weight
is the importance attached to an item within a group of items.
• A
base year
is the year chosen for the weights in a fixed-weight procedure.
• A
fixed-weight procedure
uses weights from a given base year.

Calculating the GDP Price Index
• The GDP price index is one measure of the overall price level.
• The old procedure used by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) to estimate changes in the overall price
level
used the quantities produced in a chosen year (the base year) as weights. But overall price increases are sensitive to the choice of the base year. The new procedure, known as the chained price index, avoids the problems associated with the use of fixed weights.
© 2002 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Principles of Economics, 6/e Karl Case, Ray Fair
The Problems of Fixed Weights
The use of fixed price weights to estimate real GDP leads to problems because it ignores: 1. Structural changes in the economy.
2. Supply shifts, which cause large decreases in price and large increases in quantity supplied.
3. The substitution effect of price increases.

Limitations of the GDP Concept
• Society is better off when crime decreases, but a decrease in crime is not reflected in GDP.
• An increase in leisure is an increase in social welfare, not counted in GDP.
• Nonmarket and domestic activities are not counted even though they amount to real production.
© 2002 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Principles of Economics, 6/e Karl Case, Ray Fair
Limitations of the GDP Concept
• GDP accounting rules do not adjust for production that pollutes the environment.
• GDP has nothing to say about the distribution of output. Redistributive income policies have no direct impact on GDP.
• GDP is neutral to the kinds of goods an economy produces.
© 2002 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Principles of Economics, 6/e Karl Case, Ray Fair
The Underground Economy
• The
underground economy
is the part of an economy in which transactions take place and in which income is generated that is unreported and therefore not counted in GDP.

Per Capita GDP/GNP
•
Per capita GDP
or
GNP
measures a country’s GDP or GNP divided by its population.
• Per capita GDP is a better measure of well-being for the average person that its total GDP or GNP.
