Answer:

$12 million

Explanation:

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export

contribution to GDP = value of final good - value of intermediate good

14 = 2 = 12
