Answer:

The answer is: The total value of GDP is $2 Billion

Explanation:

The formula for calculating GDP is:

GDP = C + I + G + (X – M) = $1,000 MM + $200 MM + $600 MM + $200 MM

GDP = $2,000 MM (or $2 Billion)

consumption: $1 billion ($400 MM consumers + $600 MM businesses)
investment: $200 MM (change in inventories)
government: $600 MM
exports - imports: $200 MM (no imports)
