Balance of payment,

-
balance of payments (BOP),

Set of accounts that record a country's international transactions, and which (because double entry bookkeeping is used) always balance out with no surplus or deficit shown on the overall basis. A surplus or deficit, however, can be shown in any of its three component accounts:
(1) Current account, covers export and import of goods and services,
 (2) Capital account, covers investment inflows and outflows,
 (3) Gold account, covers gold inflows and outflows. BOP accounting serves to highlight a country's competitive strengths and weaknesses, and helps in achieving balanced economic-growth.

إِنَّا ِلِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed, to Him we...... When a believer dies 🌿seventy thousand angels participate in his funeral🍁 when he enters the grave📿 Munkir and Nakeer come to him and pose questions to him 🍁 they ask him #Who is your god? What is your religion? And who is your prophet? The believer replies: My Lord is Allah, my prophet is Muhammad, and my religion is Islam. At that moment the grave is expanded as far as the eye can see and the foods of Paradise will be brought there for him and the breeze of Paradise will welcome him.❤ It is this, which is mentioned in the Holy Quran: فَأَمَّآ إِن كَانَ مِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ * فَرَوْحٌ وَرَيْحَانٌ وَجَنَّتُ نعِيمٍ 📿 If he is one of those drawn nigh (to Allah) then happiness and bounty and a garden of bliss (shall be his).

INDIAN ECONOMY. That part of the final output which comprises of physical capital goods is called gross  investment. So, investment in a country is not measured as money put in a business or any  economic activity but it is basically that portion of the final output (GDP) which consists of  capital goods. Suppose there is only one factory (capital good) in a country, which is worth Rs. one lakhs  and is producing consumption goods worth Rs. 700 and capital goods worth Rs. 300 in a  particular year (say 2019-20) in an economy. This means that the GDP in 2019-20 will be  Rs. 1000 (which is the total production of both consumption and capital goods) and the  gross investment in the economy will be Rs. 300 or (Rs 300/Rs1000) 30%, as investment is  measured as the percentage of output which consists of capital goods. Now when the factory runs for a year then wear and tear happens in the factory which is  called depreciation...
