Solution
National income is the money value of all the final goods and services produced within the domestic territory of the country during a particular period of time, generally within a year. A boost in the national income would be with the improvement of the secondary and tertiary sectors. The history of all the developed countries shows that their development is by the improvement of both the secondary and the tertiary sectors. The manufacturing industry in Brazil is contributing nearly 27.5% to the GDP.
