Answer: Value added by farmer = $1 Value added by miller = $2  Value added by the baker =  $3

GDP contribution is $6.

Explanation: GDP refers to the market value of final goods and services produced withing the national territory of a country.

Using the value added method, we can calculate GDP by summing up the value added at each level of production.

Value added by farmer = $1 Value added by miller = $3 -$1 = $2  Value added by the baker = $6 - $3 = $3

GDP = Value added by the farmer +Value added by the miller + Value added by the baker  = $1 + $2 +$3 =$6

Or

Using the expenditure approach, GDP is the market value of the final good sold to the customer.

GDP = Cost of bread to the engineer = $6

suter [353]

Answer:

Opportunity cost

Explanation:

In economics (a social science that studies human behavior in relation to ends and scarce means which have alternative uses), there are basic concepts such as scarcity, scale of preference, opportunity costs etc.

Human wants are unlimited and termed to be insatiable. However, the resources available to satisfy these wants are unlimited hence these wants are grouped in the order of importance known as a scale of preference. As the available resources are used to meet a need or satisfy a want, another will go unsatisfied due to the limited resources available.

The need/want that goes unsatisfied is known as the opportunity or real cost or cost of the alternative forgone. This is what Jacks salary will be considered as if he quits his job.

C. $19,500,000

D. $20,000,000

kherson [118]

Answer:

$410,000

Explanation:

The computation of the ending inventory under the LIFO method is shown below:

= Year end cost + difference of amount  × price level index

where,

Year end cost = Beginning cost

Difference of amount = $400,000 - $300,000 = $100,000

Price level index = $440,000 ÷ $400,000 = 1.1

So, the inventory cost is

= $300,000 + $100,000 × 1.1

= $300,000 + $110,000

= $410,000
