Some macroeconomic classifications can also be found in
the macroseries and explanations in the publication National
accounts of the Netherlands.- National income (net, market prices)
- National income (primary income) is a part of GDP flows
to the rest of the world (wages and salaries to non-resident
employees interests and dividends to non-resident financiers),
while income generated in the rest of the world is tranferred
to the Netherlands. National income is the sum of GDP and net
primary income from the rest of the world.
The volume of national income is affected by the difference in
export and import price movement, while the volume of national
product is not. A trading gain (caused by export prices rising
sharper than import prices) increases the volume change of
national income. Gross includes consumption of fixed
capital while net excludes consumption of fixed capital- By sectors
