Respuesta :

Answer:

$0.50

Explanation:

Note: The data are merged together and they are first separated before the question is answered as followed:

Name of Company             Revenues       Cost of Purchased inputs

Citrus Growers Inc.                $0.75                               0

Florida Jam Company           $2.00                             $0.75

The Corner Store                   $2.50                             $2.00

The explanation is now as follows:

Value addition is the difference between Revenues and Cost of Purchased inputs. Therefore,  the value added of The Corner Store can be calculated as follows:

Value added of The Corner Store = $2.50 - $2.00 = $0.50
