Associative array is a convenience way to avoid duplicates.

Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl

%a = ();

while (<STDIN>)
{
    chomp($_);
    ($key, $value) = split("[\t ]", $_, 2);
    next if ($key eq '' || $value eq '');
    $a{$key} = 0 if (!defined($a{$key}));
    $a{$key} += $value;
}

foreach (keys(%a))
{
    print $_.' '.$a{$_}."\n";
}
