Answer:

GDP grew by $2,200

Explanation:

G<em>ross domestic product (GDP) which is the total market value of all the final goods and services produced in a country over a given period of time. The GDP can be calculated using the value added approach.</em>

Here the GPD figure is ascertained by summing the amount of additional value created by each factor of production at each stage of the production process of the final product.

<em>Only the values added are summed, the cost of the inputs or intermediate goods are not included</em>

<em>In this question, the final value of $2200 represents the amount by which the GDP has increased in the period. This also can be verified using the value-added approach as follows</em>

                                                   Value added($)

Gold miner   -                                   600

Mining company : 1000 -600 =      400

Jewerlry maker  :1600 - 1000 =      600

Departmental store :2200 -1600 = <u>600</u>

Total value added                           <u>2,200</u>
