2) A farmer grows wheat, which she sells to a miller for 100$.

The miller turns the wheat into flour, which she sells to a baker
for 150$. The baker turns the wheat into bread, which she sells
to consumers for $180. Consumers eat the bread.
2a)This value (the GDP) was form by adding the
contributions (value added) of all the producers (the
farmer, the miller and the baker).
1) Value added by the farmer = $100
2) Value added by the miller = $50
3) Value added by the baker = $30
Then the total value added = $100 + $50 + $30 = $180.

Value added for the baker: $180-$150=$30.

4)what is the opportunity cost of investing in capital do you
think a country can overinvest in capital? what is the
opportunity cost of investing in human capital? do you think
a country can overinvest in human capital?Explain
Answer :
The opportunity cost of investing in capital is the loss of
consumption that results from redirecting resources toward
investment. Over-investment in capital is possible because of
diminishing marginal returns. A country can "over-invest" in capital if
people would prefer to have higher consumption spending and less
future growth. The opportunity cost of investing in human capital is
also the loss of consumption that is needed to provide the resources
for investment. A country could "over-invest" in human capital if
people were too highly educated for the jobs they could get – for
example, if the best job a Ph.D. in philosophy could find is managing
a restaurant.
