Sunk Cost
GNP= GDP+ Net Factor Income(Net income inflow from abroad – Net income outflow to foreign countries)
499 billion = 470 billion + ( inflow + (-10 billion) )
499 billion = 460 billion + inflow
499 billion-460 billion= inflow
39 billion = inflow
1. Expenditure Approach
GDP= C + G + I + (X - M)
GDP = C + G + I + (X - M)
GDP = $304 + $156 + $124 + $18
GDP = $602

Approaches in Calculating GDP
2. Income Approach
NI = W + R + i + PR
GDP = $492 + $74 + $36
NI = $67 + $75 + $150 + $200 GDP = $602
NI = $492

= $ 5 900+ $ 4 121+ $ 1 900 + $ 1000 NI= $ 9 807

Household Consumption $ 5 900 Depreciation
= $ 9 807 + $ 1 941 + $ 1 693
