C.VALUE ADDED

Explanation:

A. The amount of $800 is the amount that would be included in the expenditure method reason been that Rapheal used the amount of $800 to pay for a new high-definition television (HDTV) as well as its installation

The Home Station $50 - $0 = $50

Firedog $650 -$50 =$600

Better Buy $800- $650=$150

TOTAL $800

($50+$600+$150)

C.The contribution to GDP that you found using the expenditure approach corresponds to the sum of the VALUE ADDED at each stage of production
