Answer:
A. The total market value of steel used to produce car and total market value of car itself are summed
Explanation:
Double Counting refers to multiple inclusion of Intermediate goods' value in value of Final Goods . Final Goods are goods used for self consumption , investment & Intermediate Goods are goods used for further processing , further resale .
Eg : Farmer sold wheat to miller for 100 . Miller sells flour to baker for 150 (miller value added = 150 - 100 = 50) .Baker sells bread to consumers for 200 (baker value added = 200 - 150 = 50) . But ,Value of Bread (200) already includes value of flour (150) , which further includes value of wheat (100) and value added at each stage 50 each.
If including value of both final good (Bread) and intermediate good (Wheat , flour) : Bread value would be 100+150+200 = 450 which is much overvalued above real value 200, including all intermediate goods value , because of Double Counting of IC goods value in Final Good
Similarly : Steel used as Intermediate good to produce Final Good Car , if included in Car Value - will lead to Double Counting
