Important Formulas in Macroeconomics | Class 12

Last Updated : 6 May, 2026

Chapter 1: Introduction

1. Net Investment= Gross Investment – Depreciation

2. Net Indirect Tax = Indirect Taxes - Subsidies

3.  Market Price= Market Price = Factor Cost + Net Indirect Taxes

OR

Factor Cost + (Indirect Taxes - Subsidies)

4. Net factor Income from Abroad (NFIA)= Factor income earned from abroad – Factor income paid abroad

OR

Net Compensation of Employees + Net Income from Property and Entrepreneurship + Net Retained Earnings

5. National Income (using NFIA) = Domestic Income + NFIA

6. Depreciation = Gross Value - Net Value

7. Leakagesin Different Types of Economies

Leakages in Different Types of Economies

Two-Sector Economy (with Financial Market)Savings
Two-Sector Economy (without Financial Market)No Leakages
Three-Sector EconomySavings + Taxes
Four-Sector EconomySavings + Taxes + Imports

8. Injections in Different Types of Economies

Injections in Different Types of Economies

Two-Sector Economy (with Financial Market)Investment
Two-Sector Economy (without Financial Market)No Injection
Three-Sector EconomyInvestment + Government Expenditure
Four-Sector EconomyInvestment + Government Expenditure + Exports

Chapter 2 : National Income Accounting

1. National Income and Related Aggregates

  • Gross Domestic Product at Factor Cost (GDPFC) = GDPMP – Net Indirect Taxes
  • Net Domestic Product at Market Price (NDPMP) = GDPMP – Depreciation
  • Net Domestic Product at Factor Cost (NDPFC) or Domestic Income = GDPMP – Net Indirect Taxes – Depreciation
  • Gross National Product at Market Price (GNPMP) = GDPMP + Net Factor Income from Abroad
  • Gross National Product at Factor Cost (GNPFC) = GNPMP – Net Indirect Taxes
  • Net National Product at Market Price (NNPMP) = GNPMP – Depreciation
  • Net National Product at Factor Cost (NNPFC) or National Income = GNPMP – Net Indirect Taxes – Depreciation

2. Domestic Income 

Income from Domestic Product accruing to Private Sector = NDPFC - Income from Property and Entrepreneurship accruing to Government Administrative Departments - Savings of Non-Departmental Enterprises

3. Private Income = Factor Income earned (within domestic territory + from rest of the world) + Transfer Income received (within domestic territory + from rest of the world)

OR

= Income from Domestic Product Accruing to Private Sector + NFIA + Interest on National Debt + Current Transfers from Government + Net Current Transfer from Rest of the World

4.Personal Disposable Income = Personal Income - Personal Taxes Miscellaneous Receipts of Government

OR

= Personal Consumption Expenditure + Personal Savings

5. National Disposable Income = National Income + Net Indirect Taxes + Net Current Transfers from the rest of the world

OR

= National Consumption Expenditure + National Savings

6. Gross National Disposable Income = Net National Disposable Income + Depreciation

7. Product or Value Added Method of calculating National Income

  • GDPMP using Value Added Method (βˆ‘GVAMP) = GDPMP
  • Value Added = Value of Output – Intermediate Consumption 
  • Value of Output when the whole output is sold in a financial year = Sales
  • Value of Output when the whole output is not sold in a financial year

Value of Output = Sales + Change in Stock
Change in Stock = Closing Stock – Opening Stock

  • Value of Output  = (Quantity Γ— Price) + Change in Stock
  • National Income using Value Added Method( NNPFC) = GDPMP – Depreciation – Net Indirect Taxes + NFIA

OR

=Domestic Income or NDPFC + NFIA

8. Expenditure Method of calculating National Income

  • GDPMP using Expenditure Method(GDPMP) = βˆ‘ Final Expenditure

βˆ‘ Final Expenditure = Private Final Consumption Expenditure (PFCE) + Government Final Consumption Expenditure (GFCE) + Gross Domestic Capital Formation (GDCF) + Net Exports (NX)

  • Private Final Consumption Expenditure (PFCE) = Household Final Consumption Expenditure + Non-profit Private Institutions Final Consumption Expenditure
  • Government Final Consumption Expenditure (GFCE) = Intermediate Consumption of Government + COE paid by Government +Direct purchases from abroad for embassies and consulates located abroad – Sale of goods and services produced by general government
  • Gross Domestic Capital Formation (GDCF) = Gross Fixed Capital formation + Inventory Investment
    OR

= Gross Business Fixed Investment + Gross Residential Construction Investment + Gross Public Investment + Inventory Investment

  • Net Exports (X – M) = Exports – Imports or (X-M)
  • National Income using Expenditure Method (NNPFC) = βˆ‘Final Expenditure or GDPMP – Depreciation – Indirect taxes + NFIA

OR

= Domestic Income or NDPFC + NFIA

9. Income Method of calculating National Income

  • Profit = Corporate Tax + Dividend + Retained Earnings
  • Operating Surplus = Rent + Royalty + Interest + Profit

OR

= Value of Output – Intermediate Consumption – Compensation of Employees – Mixed Income – Consumption of Fixed Capital – Net Indirect Taxes

  • National Income using Income Method(NNPFC) = NDPFC + NFIA

Where,

NDPFC = Compensation of Employees + Profit + Rent & Royalty + Interest + Mixed income

10. National Income at Constant Price

11. Nominal GDP or GDP at Current Price

12. Real GDP or GDP at Constant Price

13. GDP Deflator or Price Index =

Chapter 3 : Money and Banking

1. Measures of Money Supply

  • M1  = Currency and coins with public + Demand deposits of commercial banks + Other deposits with Reserve Bank of India
  • M2 = M1 + Savings Deposits with Post Office Saving Bank 
  • M3 = M1 + Net Time Deposits with Banks
  • M4 = M3 + Total Deposits with Post Office Saving Bank

2. Money Multiplier

Chapter 4 : Determination of Income and Employment

1. Aggregate Demand (AD) = C + I + G + (X - M)

= Private Consumption Expenditure + Investment Expenditure + Government Expenditure + Net Exports (Exports - Imports)

2. Aggregate Supply (AS) or National Income (Y) = Consumption (C) + Saving (S)

3. Consumption Function(C) = f(Y)

Where,

C = Consumption

f = Functional Relationship

Y = National Income

4. Average Propensity to Consume (APC)

5. Marginal Propensity to Consumer (MPC)

6. Saving Function(S) = f(Y)

Where,

S = Saving

f = Functional Relationship

Y = National Income

7. Average Propensity to Save (APS)

8. Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS)

9. Relationship between APC ad APS=APC + APS = 1

10. Relationship between MPC and MPS =MPC + MPS = 1

11. Values of APC, APS, MPC, and MPS

Value

APC

APS

MPC

MPS

Negative
(less than zero)

APC can never be less than zero, because of the presence of 

APS can be less than zero when C>Y; i.e., before Break-even Point.

MPC can never be less than zero, as  can never be more than 

MPS can never be less than zero, as  can never be more than 

Zero

APC can never be zero, because of the presence of 

APS can be zero when C=Y; i.e., at Break-even Point.

MPC can never be zero, when 

MPS can never be zero, when 

One

APC can be one when C=Y; i.e., at BEP

APS can never by one as savings can never be equal to income

MPC can never be zero, when 

MPS can never be zero, when 

More than One

APC can be more than one when C>Y; i.e., before Break-even Point.

APS can never be more than one as savings can never be more than income

MPC can never be less than zero, as  can never be more than 

MPS can never be less than zero, as  can never be more than 

12. Equation of Consumption Function

Where, 

C = Consumption

b = MPC

Y = Income

13. Equation of Saving Function

Where,

S = Saving

1-b = MPS

Y = Income

14. Marginal Efficiency of Investment (MEI)

15. Two Approaches for Determination of Equilibrium Level

  • Aggregate Demand-Aggregate Supply Approach (AD-AS Approach): Equilibrium will be achieved when,

AD = AS

  • Saving-Investment Approach (S-I Approach): Equilibrium will be achieved when,

S = I

16. Investment Multiplier

OR

OR

The maximum value of the Multiplier is ∞ when MPC = 1

The minimum value of Multiplier is 1 when MPC = 0

Chapter 5 : Government Budget and the Economy

1. Measures of Government Deficit

  • Revenue Deficit = Revenue Expenditure – Revenue Receipts
  • Fiscal Deficit = Total Expenditure – Total Receipts (except borrowings)

OR

= (Revenue Expenditure + Capital Expenditure) – (Revenue Receipts + Capital Receipts excluding Borrowings)

OR

= (Revenue Expenditure – Revenue Receipts) + (Capital Expenditure – Capital Receipts excluding Borrowings)

OR

= Revenue Deficit + (Capital Expenditure – Capital Receipts excluding Borrowings)

  • Primary Deficit = Fiscal Deficit – Interest Payment

Chapter 6 : Balance of Payments

1. Balance of Trade = Exports of Goods – Imports of Goods

2. Balance on Current Account
