    A.

    Net National Product

    B.

    Gross Domestic Product

    C.

    National Income

    D.

    Corporate Tax

    Correct option is A

    The correct answer is:
    A. Net National Product (NNP)

    ​Explanation:
    When depreciation (also called capital consumption allowance) is deducted from the Gross National Product (GNP), the result is Net National Product (NNP).

    Gross National Product (GNP):
    Represents the total value of goods and services produced by a country's citizens, both domestically and abroad, during a specific period.
    Depreciation:
    Refers to the reduction in the value of capital assets due to wear and tear, obsolescence, or other factors.
    Formula: NNP = GNP − Depreciation

    Other Options Explained:

    • B. Gross Domestic Product (GDP):
      Represents the total value of goods and services produced within a country's borders in a specific period.
      It includes contributions by both citizens and foreign entities operating within the country.
    • C. National Income (NI):
      Refers to the total income earned by the nation, including wages, profits, rents, and interest.
      It is derived from NNP at factor cost:   National Income = NNP at Factor Cost
    • D. Corporate Tax:
      A tax imposed on the profits of corporations, unrelated to GNP or depreciation.
