NATIONAL INCOME ACCOUNTING

SOME BASIC CONCEPTS OF MACROECONOMICS

Economic Wealth Of A Nation

1.Natural Resources: While it may seem intuitive that countries rich in natural resources like minerals, forests, and fertile lands should be wealthier, this is not always the case. Countries in Africa and Latin America are examples of resource-rich nations that are not necessarily economically prosperous.

2.Utilisation Of Resources: The key to a country’s economic prosperity lies not just in the possession of natural resources, but in how efficiently these resources are utilised in the production process. Simply having resources isn’t enough; the resources must be transformed into something of value.

Flow Of Production

1.Combining Energies: The production in a modern economy arises from the combination of human effort, natural resources, and man-made environment, operating within a particular social and technological structure.

2.Diverse Enterprises: Production takes place across a spectrum of enterprises, from large corporations employing many people to single entrepreneurs.

Commodities And Their Transformation

1.Objective Of Production: Producers create commodities with the intent to sell them. This could range from small items like buttons to services like legal advice to large machinery like airplanes.
