Correct Answer: INR 700,000


Solution : The correct answer is  (c) INR 700,000

To calculate the value added by the company, we need to subtract the intermediate consumption (cost of goods and services used in production) from the total value of goods produced.

Given:

Total value of goods produced: INR 1,000,000

Intermediate consumption: INR 300,000

To find the value added, we subtract the intermediate consumption from the total value of goods produced:

Value added = Total value of goods produced - Intermediate consumption

Value added = INR 1,000,000 - INR 300,000

Value added = INR 700,000

Therefore, the value added by the company is INR 700,000.
