Today I faced a critical issue with modifiers.
Here it is.
For example,
For every dollar Roscoe Corporation spends on R & D, Utica Central spends seven dollars.
Here, we are using correlative conjunction "For every A, B".
A: dollar (that Roscoe Corporation spends on R & D)
B: Utica Central (Subject) spends(verb) seven dollars(Object-Noun)
Now I am confused how A and B are parallel.
Similarly, In addition to A, Govt demands B, or In addition to A, B is demanded by Govt.
Which one is correct.
In both cases, there is one similarity.
Preposition+nounA, subject + verb +NounB.
So what is the issue with this structure and how can I understand this point totally to avoid further mistakes.
But in some SC problem I have observed that In addition to A, B is... is correct even if second structure is also provided in options.

In your example, for is not used as a conjunction, but as a preposition.
This is similar to the usage of for in the following sentence:
A man wants to do everything for his children.
