The value of output in an economy refers to the total value of all goods and services produced within a given period. Without specific information about the economy in question, it is difficult to determine the exact value of output.
Regarding the value added to flour, yeast, sugar, and salt when bakers turn them into bread, it is the additional value created through the process of production. Value added can be calculated by subtracting the cost of intermediate inputs (flour, yeast, sugar, and salt) from the final selling price of the bread.
For example, let's say the cost of flour, yeast, sugar, and salt combined is $5, and the final selling price of the bread is $10. The value added by the bakers would be $10 - $5 = $5. This means that through their production process, the bakers have added $5 of value to the original inputs.
