Abstract:It is the widely held view that estimates of national income should be corrected for the value of the extracted exhaustible resource stock. This correction implies the counter-intuitive result that the national income of an oil producer is unaffected by its vast oil reserves. In this paper the authors review the definition of national income , and discuss its relation to national welfare. The authors show that an extra income should be imputed to the resource-owning country based on the exportable resource stock.
