Meaning. Primary deficit is defined as fiscal deficit minus interest payments on previous borrowings. We have seen that borrowing includes not only accumulated debt but also interest payment on the debt. If we deduct 'interest payments on debt' from borrowing, the balance is called primary deficit. It shows how much government borrowing is going to meet expenses other than interest payments. Thus zero primary deficit means that government has to resort to borrowing only to make interest payments. To know the amount of borrowing on account of current expenditure over revenue, we need to calculate primary deficit. Thus primary deficit is equal to fiscal deficit less interest payments. Symbolically:

The theory aims to determine the adjustments needed to be made in the exchange rates of two currencies to make them at par with the purchasing power of each other. In other words, the expenditure on a similar commodity must be same in both currencies when accounted for exchange rate. The purchasing power of each currency is determined in the process.
Purchasing power parity is used worldwide to compare the income levels in different countries. PPP thus makes it easy to understand and interpret the data of each country.

| Real flow | Money flow |
| Flow of factor services from the household sector to the firms and the corresponding flow of goods and services from the firms to the households is called the real flow | When the households provide factor services to the firms, in return they receive factor payments. The factor payments received by the household is then spent on goods and services produced by the firms leading to a circular flow of money between households and firms. |
| Real flow does not have a common medium of exchange. Hence, it has limitations of barter system. | All transactions are settled with the help of money as a common medium of exchange. Hence, it overcomes the limitations of barter system. |
| Example: Mr X bought 2 units of wheat in exchange of 3 pens | Example: Mr Y bought 2 units of wheat in exchange of 65 rupees |
