The biscuit company uses ingredients such as flour, sugar, and oil to make 5 packets of biscuits. These biscuits are sold at a price of Rs 100 (Rs 20 per biscuit) to the customers. Only the biscuit is considered as final goods because they reach the final consumers. Wheat is considered as an intermediate product. It is used in the production of final goods only.
