Answer:

(i) $438

(ii) $438

(iii) $411

Explanation:

The expenditures approach:

GDP = Personal consumption expenditures + [Net private domestic investment +  Consumption of fixed capital, depreciation]  + Government purchases + net exports

= $285 + $60 + $82 + $11

= $438

The income approach:

GDP = compensation of employees +Rents + Interest +  Proprietor's income +  Corporate profits +  Taxes on production and imports + Consumption of fixed capital, depreciation - Net foreign factor income +  Statistical discrepancy

= $263 + $14 + $13 + $43 + $56 + $18 + $27 -$4 + $8

= $438

Net Domestic Product = GDP - Consumption of fixed capital (depreciation).                                              

                                     = $438 - $27

                                     = $411
