  • A. C+I+G+(X+M)
  • B. C+I+G+X
  • C. C+I+G
  • D. C+I+G+(X-M)

Correct Answer: D. C+I+G+(X-M)

Explanation

The formula to calculate the components of GNP is Y = C + I + G + X + Z. That stands for GNP = Consumption + Investment + Government + X (net exports, or imports - exports) - Z (net income earned by domestic residents from overseas investments - net income earned by foreign residents from domestic investments.)
