Correct Answer: 15


Solution : The correct answer is (b) 15  

To calculate the net value added at factor cost, we need to consider the following components:

1. Durable use producer goods with a life span of 10 years: This implies that the value of the durable goods is spread over 10 years. Since the value is given as 10, the annual value added would be 10/10 = 1.

2. Single-use producer goods: The value added from single-use producer goods is given as 5.

3. Sales: The value added from sales is given as 20.

4. Unsold output produced during a year: The value added from unsold output is given as 2.

5. Taxes on production: 1

Net value added at factor cost = Sales + Unsold output -  Single-use producer goods -  Durable use producer goods- Taxes on production

Net value added at factor cost = 20 + 2 - 5 - 1 - 1 = 15
