Non-value-added costs refer to expenses that do not directly contribute to the production of the final product or service. In this list, the following costs can be considered as non-value-added: 
- Expediting costs ($3000) 
- Scrap and rework costs ($5000) 
- Inspection costs ($10,000) 
Therefore, the total non-value-added cost is $18,000 (3000 + 5000 + 10000), which corresponds to choice B.
