Question
What precautions are necessary while using value added method of measuring National Income?

Answer

Following are the necessary precautions while using value added method of measuring National Income:
  1. Avoid double counting, by considering only the final goods.
  2. Sale of second hand goods should not be considered.
  3. Production for self-consumption (like the farmer's family using their own farm output) must be considered.
  4. Value addition should include imputed rent on vowner occupied houses, because imputed rent is taken as a part of factor income and factor income has got to be identical with value added.
