In the first stage of manufacturing each final unit of a product, a firm purchases a key input at a price of
$7per unit. The firm then pays a wage rate of $5 for the time that labor is exerted, combining an additional $1 of inputs for each final unit of output produced. The firm sells every unit of the product for $15.
What is the contribution of each unit of output to GDP in the current year?
The contribution of each unit of output to GDP in the current year is $?
We need to find Value addition by firm which can be calculated as below:
Particulars | Amount |
Sales Price (A) | 15 |
Input Price (B) | 7 |
Wage rate ('C) | 5 |
Additional Input (D) | 1 |
Contribution of each unit of output in GDP (E=A-B-C-D) | 2 |
Hence each unit contributes $2 in GDP of the country.
