RECOVERY: A early expansionary phase of the business cycle shortly after a contraction has ended, but before a full-blown expansion begins. During a recovery, the unemployment rate remains relatively high, but it is beginning to fall. Real gross domestic product has begun to increase, usually rapidly. However, because the contraction remains fresh in the minds of many, it may not be immediately clear that the trough of the contraction has been reached.

The first three related, but slightly different income measures is national income (NI), income earned by the factors of production.- National income is the sum of wages (W), interest (I), rent (R), profit (P) and proprietors' income (PI):
NI = W + I + R + P + PI - National income is also found by subtracting capital consumption allowance (CCA) and indirect business taxes (IBT) from, and adding net foreign factor income (NFFI) to, GDP:
NI = GDP - CCA - IBT + NFFI - And because NDP = GDP - CCA:
NI = NDP - IBT + NFFI
