Answer:

$7.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Added value is the increase in value arising from the production process. It is between the price of the finished good or services and the cost of inputs.

For Jacques's blankets, the cost of inputs will be labor plus materials.

=$7.50 + $10 = $17.50

The selling price is $25.

Added value

= $25- $17.50

=$7.50
