Value added(GDP MP) = value of output-intermediate cost.

GDPMP = 1000 - (500+100+100).
=1000 - 700.
=300.

Therefore, value-added is 300.

Wages are not subtracted.

Value added is thus defined as the gross receipts of a firm minus the cost of goods and services purchased from other firms. Value added includes wages, salaries, interest, depreciation, rent, taxes and profit.

It is the value added to all the input costs i.e., copper, wages, and other materials.

Value addition=Output value-Input value.

1000-500-100-100 = 300 this is the process of value added.

Worth of utensils=1000.

Expenses include copper worth, wage& material purchased=500+100+100=700.

Value added=1000-700=300.

In calculation of value added should we subtract the wage payment? I guess we should minus the value of intermediate purchase only, here copper & other material.

The amount of intermediate consumption is deducted from the total amount.

Here it is 1000 - 500 - 100 - 100 = 300
