Calculate GDP by summing the market values of final goods: $150000

Answer 1

Since you have solved other parts, let me tell you the Bells's part: * * cost of purchase input = $ 200 dollar for chips + $ 50 for Microsoft Total $ 250 spent for one PC Total Pc produced = 150 units Total cost = 150 times 250 = $ 37500 * value added = Revenue minus Cost = 120000 minus 37500 = $ 82,500

Hope this answer solves your purpose. Do give it a thumbs up. All the best.
