| | National income accounting measures the output of an entire economy as well as flows between sectors. | | | Gross national product: The GNP is the GDP plus receipts of factor income from the rest of the world minus payments of factor income to the rest of the world. | | | GDP as income: The total value of output can be computed by adding up the income of all sectors. |

| | National income measures the money flow along the bottom part of the diagram; i.e., the money value of all factor services used in the production process. | | | National wealth, on the other hand, measures the value of all goods, services and assets available in an economy at a point in time and perhaps is a better measure of national economic well-being than GDP. | | | National income represents the total amount of money that factors of production earn during the course of a year. |

| | Measuring the Economy |
| | National income accounting measures the economy& performance by measuring the flows of income and expenditures over a period of time. | | | National income accounts serve a similar purpose for the economy, as do income statements for business firms. | | | GDP measures the output of the geographical U.S. regardless of the nationality of the contributors. |

| | National income accounting consists of concepts which enable those who use them to measure the economy& output to compare it with past outputs to explain its size and the reasons for changes in its size and to formulate policies designed to increase it. | | | Net foreign factor income is added because it reflects income from all domestic output regardless of the foreign or domestic ownership of domestic resources. | | | PI is the total income received – whether it is earned or unearned – by the households of the economy before the payment of personal taxes. |

| | The original set of income accounts was presented to Congress in 1937 and in a research report, National Income, 1929-35. | | | One measure is National Income (NI), which is the sum of incomes that originate in the production of goods and services from labor and property supplied by U.S. residents. | | | Similarly, interest payments on the national debt are not counted as part of government spending in the GDP accounts. |

| | Measures of national income and output would be closer to the ideal measure of sustainable income if omitted consumption and net investment were included to obtain augmented income and output measures. | | | One important conclusion is that to the extent that the national accounts omit important components of consumption and of net capital accumulation, they may provide misleading measures of sustainable income. | | | It should be emphasized that the sustainability-based approach—while deemed particularly useful and appropriate in the context of designing comprehensive national income accounts—is but one of many approaches to analyzing the sustainability of an economy or of the interactions between the economy and the environment. |

| | Greening the National Accounts |
| | It is said that the national accounts should identify the value added by environmental services that are implicitly included in current measures of income and should pinpoint some of the costs of reducing damages caused by pollution. | | | National income accounting is one of the most important policymaking tools to appear in the last 50 years. | | | Nevertheless, a gradual process of modifying measures of national economic performance is consistent with the history and development of the national accounts. |

| | The income side of the accounts measures the income earned by factors (inputs) contributing to the production of these outputs. | | | Thus, aggregate measures from the accounts may fail to alert decisionmakers of problems with the management of these national assets. | | | Damages caused by pollution affect estimates of national income only to the extent that they influence productivity and even those effects are not separately identified in the accounts. |

| | Aggregate Expenditure and the Spending Multiplier |
| | Any time new spending is introduced into the economy (or if spending is removed), it will cause GDP (and other measures of national income) to change by some multiple of that spending shock. | | | What is important is that certain expenditure decisions are proportional to the level of income such that as aggregate income increases, expenditure increases by some fraction of this income change. | | | An initial change in autonomous spending (for example, a shock in the form of an increase in government spending) of $20 (billion) is received as income by some person or business in the aggregate economy. |

| | National income, measured by statistics such as the Net National Income (NNI), measures the total income of all individuals in the economy. | | | To calculate a company's income, it starts with its amount of revenue, deducts all costs, including such things as employees' salaries and depreciation, and the number that results is its income, which may be a negative number. | | | In business and accounting, income (also known as profit or earnings) is, more specifically, the amount of money that a company earns after paying for all its costs. |

| | We have gone from GDP to National Income, but the economists who put together the GDP figures know how to break it down into a whole lot of other categories. | | | Though not a true income because it is not a payment for services, it is part of the value of final output. | | | Because it is difficult or impossible to separate the part of this income that is truly a wage to the owner from that which is actually a profit, the folks at the Commerce Department who collect the numbers keep it in the separate account of proprietors' income. |
