State with reasons, whether you agree or disagree with the following statements:Under output method, value added approach is used to avoid double counting.

Answer»

Yes,I agree with this statement.

  • The value added approach is the difference between the value of final output and input at each stage of production.
  • In this approach, the value added at each stage of production is considered.

E.g.

Production stageValue of output in ₹Value of input in ₹Value of added in ₹
1.Raw groundnut50050
2.Groundnut805030
3.Oil1208040
4.Packed oil15012030
150
  • In the above example, value of groundnut with shell is ₹ 50, after removing shells value of groundnut is ₹ 80, after crushing groundnut value oil ₹ 120 and when oil is packed its value ₹ 150.
  • So, the value added raw groundnut (₹ 50), groundnut (₹ 30), oil (₹ 40), packed oil (₹ 30), total value ₹ 150 is included in national income.
