Selected information is taken from the GDP data of a hypothetical country:
Personal income (in $ trillions) for this country is closest to:
选项:
A.10.9. B.15.4. C.17.7.解释:
Personal income = National income – Taxes – Undistributed corporate profits+ Transfer payments, where
National income = GDP + Capital consumption allowance = 18 + 2.3 = 20.3
Personal income = 20.3 – 3.5 – 1.0 + 1.9 = 17.7
A is incorrect. It is only cash flows to households through wages, salaries, and other labor income plus transfer payments = 9.0 + 1.9 = 10.9.
B is incorrect. It ignores capital consumption allowance in determining national income. National income is incorrectly calculated as
National income = GDP + Capital consumption allowance = 18 + 0 = 18,
With Personal income = National income – Taxes – Undistributed corporate profits + Transfer payments = 18.0 – 3.5 – 1.0 + 1.9 = 15.4.
这道题National Income的算法是GDP+CCA。之前有一道题的题解是GDP-CCA。到底怎么算。
