Value Added by Firm X
Purchases from Firm Y = $100
Purchases from Firm Z = $200
Sales = 200 * $5 = $1,000
Value added = Sales - Purchases from Firm Y - Purchases from Firm Z
Value added = $1,000 - $100 - $200 = $700
The value added by Firm X is $700.
Value added by Firm Y
Purchases from Firm X = $100
Purchases from Firm Z = $300
Sales = 100 * $5 = $500
Value added = Sales - Purchases from Firm X - Purchases from Firm Z
Value added = $500 - $100 - $300 = $100
The value added by Firm Y is $100.
Value added by Firm Z
Purchases from Firm X = $25
Purchases from Firm Y = $75
Sales = 10 * $20 = $200
Value added = Sales - Purchases from Firm X - Purchases from Firm Y
Value added = $200 - $25 - $75 = $100
The value added by Firm Z is $100.
Calculate the GDP -
GDP = Value added by Firm X + Value added by Firm Y + Value added by Firm Z
GDP = $700 + $100 + $100 = $900
The economy's GDP is $900.
Hence, the correct answer is the option (B).
