Why the answer is A, and why the others tempt you.
Step 1: GNP at market prices = GDP + Net factor income from abroad = ₦120,000 − ₦3,000 = ₦117,000 billion. Step 2: NNP at market prices = GNP − Depreciation = ₦117,000 − ₦8,000 = ₦109,000 billion. Step 3: National Income (NNP at factor cost) = NNP at market prices − Net indirect taxes = ₦109,000 − (₦15,000 − ₦5,000) = ₦109,000 − ₦10,000 = ₦99,000 billion.
