Answered by 111
there is a typo for Inventories. inventories=14 not 4.
I add and subtract all the values that you show and it equal 14501 not 14925. So what is going wrong?

To calculate Gross Domestic Product (GDP) using the income approach, we add up all income earned by various factors of production in an economy.

GDP = Net Interest + Net US Income Earned Abroad + Wages and Salaries + Rental Income + Other Business Income (adjustments less business transfers) + Change in Business Payment + Inventories + Proprietorial Income + Gross Investment Spending + Indirect Business Taxes + Corporate Profits Before Taxes + Exports - Depreciation

Substituting the given values, we get:
GDP = $739 + $36 + $8,735 + $237 + $1,202 + $262 + $4 + $1,128 + $1,479 + $1,059 + $1,194 + $249 - $1,833

GDP = $10,646 billion

I apologize for the confusion. You are correct that there is a typo in the original prompt for Inventories. It should be 14 instead of 4.

Using the corrected value:

GDP = $739 + $36 + $8,735 + $237 + $1,202 + $262 + $14 + $1,128 + $1,479 + $1,059 + $1,194 + $249 - $1,833

GDP = $14,501 billion

Thank you for bringing this to my attention and I apologize again for any confusion caused by my earlier responses.
