INDIFFERENCE CURVE: A curve that graphically depicts various combinations of goods that generate the same level of utility to a consumer. In other words, a consumer is "indifferent" among any of the bundles because they all provide the same satisfaction. Indifference curves are combined with a budget line or constraint for indifference curve analysis used to explain many aspects of demand, including the slope of the demand curve and the income and substitution effects.

                           NET NATIONAL PRODUCT: The total market value of all final goods and services produced by citizens of an economy during a given period of time, usually a year, after adjusting for the depreciation of capital. Net national product (NNP) has the same relation to net domestic product (NDP) as gross national product (GNP) has to gross domestic product (GDP). Net national product also has the same relation to gross national product that net domestic product has to gross domestic product. Like NDP, NNP is a measure of the net production in the economy. The key difference between NNP and NDP is identical to that between GNP and GDP. Net national product measures all output produced by citizens of a nation, regardless of where that production takes place, and net domestic product measures all output produced within the political boundaries of a nation, regardless of the citizenry of those doing the producing. The difference between NNP and NDP is net foreign factor income.In the same way that NDP is derived from GDP by subtracting capital depreciation, specifically the capital consumption adjustment (CCA), NNP is derived from GNP by subtracting the capital consumption adjustment. When GNP gave way to GDP as the primary measure of gross production in the early 1990s, so too did NNP give way to NDP as the primary measure of net production in the economy. NNP can still be derived from the numbers provided by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, but it is seldom if ever reported with other standard measures of production and income.
