Ja. Sefton et Mr. Weale, THE NET NATIONAL PRODUCT AND EXHAUSTIBLE RESOURCES - THE EFFECTS OF FOREIGN-TRADE, Journal of public economics, 61(1), 1996, pp. 21-47
It is the widely held view that estimates of national income should be
corrected for the value of the extracted exhaustible resource stock.
This correction implies the counter-intuitive result that the national
income of an oil producer is unaffected by its vast oil reserves. In
this paper we review the definition of national income, and discuss it
s relation to national welfare. We show that an extra income should be
imputed to the resource-owning country based on the exportable resour
ce stock. Part of the net adjustment for resource use is made to the i
ncome of the resource-using and not the resource-producing country.
