a) Find the output matrix if final demand changes to 300 for A, 200 for B, and 400 for C.
b) Find the total value of the other production costs that this involves.
d) The Profit function of a firm is of the form π = aQ2 + bQ + c if it is known that π =
31, 34, and 27 when Q = 1, 2, and 3 respectively, write down a set of three unknowns,
a, b, and c. Solve this system to find a, b, and c. hence find the profit when Q = 5. [7]
e) A real estate firm owns the Kasumba Garden Apartments which consists of 90
apartments. At K350 per month every apartment can be rented. However, for each K10
per month increase there will be two vacancies with no possibility of filling them. The
firm wants to receive K31980 per month from rents. What rent should be charged for
each apartment?
a) Suppose consumers will demand 40 units of a product when the price is K12 per unit
and 25 units when the price is K18 each. Find the demand equation assuming that it is
linear. Find the price per unit when 30 units are demanded. [3]
b) Let

P = − q + .
i. If a tax of K1.50 per unit is imposed on the manufacturer, how will the original
equilibrium price be affected if the demand remains the same? [5]
ii. Determine the total revenue obtained by the manufacturer at the equilibrium
point both before and after the tax [2]
a) Given the demand function for computers to be P = 2400 – 0.4Q
i. Determine the coefficient of point elasticity of demand when P = 1800, P = 1200,
and P = 600 and give an interpretation of each result. [7]
ii. If the price of computers increases by 12%, calculate the percentage change in
quantity demanded at P = 1800, P = 1200, and P = 600. [12]

35 track and field athletes from Luzon competed in the North-Phil Olympics. 18 competed in the 100-meter dash, 17 in the relay race, and 16 in the hurdles. Five competed in both hurdles and 100-meter dash events, six in both relay race and hurdles, seven in both 100-meter dash and relay race. Only two athletes competed in all three events. How many athletes competed in the following? In the Venn diagram, let D represent 100-meter dash, R represent relay race, and H represent hurdles.
