What to Focus On

  • Economic development is a long-term process of change.
  • Development means more choices and better command over goods and services.
  • No single index is enough to measure development.

  • National income is the value of goods and services produced in one year.
  • Kuznets, Meier and Baldwin favour national income as an index of development.
  • Net national income is preferred to gross national income for development studies.

  • Price rise alone can raise national income without raising welfare.
  • Unequal distribution of income weakens the welfare meaning of national income.
  • Barter and many domestic services are excluded from national income.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

National income is the best and complete measure of economic development.

Any increase in national income automatically increases welfare.

Nominal national income and real national income are the same thing.
