GDP using the expenditures approach = $
billion
GDP using the income approach = $
billion
NDP = $
| billion
b. Now determine NI in two ways: first, by making the required additions or subtractions from NDP (method 1); and second, by adding
up the types of income and taxes that make up NI (method 2).
Method 1= $
billion
Method 2 = $
billion
c. Adjust NI (from part b) as required to obtain Pl.
PI = $
