Any valid working is sufficient for [1].

An answer of $184 billion or 184 without any valid working is sufficient for [1].

Examiners report

A common error was to add income from abroad to GNI and subtract from GDP — giving a result of $48 billion. Candidates also forfeited a mark for omitting “billions” or “K$”.
