Question: 1

a)

Saturday : 100 Platinum, 180 Gold, 200 Silver

Sunday : 120 Platinum, 200 Gold, 250 Silver

Monday : 80 Platinum, 150 Gold, 180 Silver

Price : Platinum = RM 45; Gold = RM 35; Silver = RM 25

Let:

P = Platinum’s revenue on 3 days (Saturday, Sunday, Monday)

G = Gold’s revenue on 3 days (Saturday, Sunday, Monday)

S = Silver’s revenue on 3 days (Saturday, Sunday, Monday)

Platinum (RM 45) Gold (RM 35) Silver (RM 25)

¿ RM 15,800+ RM 18,650+ RM 13,350¿ RM 47 ,800.00

Answer: Total revenue collected over 3 days is RM 47,800.00

b)

Tuesday : 80 Platinum, 150 Gold, 380 Silver

Wednesday : 100 Platinum, 120 Gold, 560 Silver

Thursday : 80 Platinum, 200 Gold, 280 Silver

Ticket Price : Platinum = RM X; Gold = RM Y; Silver = RM Z

Revenue: Tuesday = RM 10,000; Wednesday = RM 12,000; Thursday = RM 10,000

The ticket price for the projected revenue is: x=600, y=40, z=-120

Month 1:
The break even revenue for month 1 is

(1200+3000+ 4500)× RM (600+ 40−120)=RM 300,000

Month 2:
The break even revenue for month 2 is

(1300+3500+5000) × RM (600+40−120)=RM 320,000

Month 3:

b) P=S (1+ i)−n

P = Original principal

S = Prospective value = RM 10,955.16

m = Frequency of conversions = semi-annually = 2

t = Time in years = 10 years = 10

k = Annual interest rate = 8% ÷ 100 = 0.08

i = Periodic interest rate = k ÷ m = 0.08 / 2

n = Number of interest period in the investment period = m×t = 2 × 10 = 20
