Answer:

The primary difference between paper value and real value is that paper has no "real" value in that the currency is based entirely on faith--whereas real value (as it exists in something like Gold) is intrinsically useful.

Answer: The answer is ‘C’. Paper value is based on stock price, while real value is based on sales and profits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Paper value is based on how much of their stock is printed. And real value is profits from sales.
