Current Versus Constant Prices National income regardless of the - TopicsExpress



          

Current Versus Constant Prices National income regardless of the concept is obviously measured at prices prevailing during the period or in other words at current prices. When calculated over a number of years, the changes in national income would, therefore, include implicitly not only the effect of the changes in production but also the changes in prices. This estimate compared over the period would not, therefore, give a proper measure of the overall real increase in production of the country or the economic welfare of the people or growth of the economy. Therefore, it would be necessary to eliminate the effect of prices, or in other words to recompute the whole series at given prices of one particular base year. National income thus computed, is termed as National Income at constant prices or in real terms. current-affairs/2014-07-20/topics/741
