Correct Answer: INR 1,500,000


Solution : The correct answer is  (c) INR 1,500,000

Stage 1: INR 800,000

Stage 2: INR 600,000

Stage 3: INR 400,000

Total value of intermediate consumption: INR 300,000

To find the value of final goods, we subtract the total value of intermediate consumption from the sum of the value added at each stage:

Value of final goods = (Stage 1 + Stage 2 + Stage 3) - Total value of intermediate consumption

Value of final goods = (INR 800,000 + INR 600,000 + INR 400,000) - INR 300,000

Value of final goods = INR 1,800,000 - INR 300,000

Value of final goods = INR 1,500,000

Therefore, the value of final goods produced in the economy is INR 1,500,000.
