4. Congratulations! You have been appointed as Chief Economic Advisor by the Wombats.
But, with great power comes responsibility. The wombats ask you to find out how much they
should produce. They have given the following information about their economy:
0.45 0.34 0.15 x 45
[0.10 0.28 0.25 ] [y] = [28]
0.00 0.00 −0.18 z 63
Interpret the meaning of 0.10 and 0.00 (in the first matrix) and 28 in the RHS matrix. Does the
above equation system describe an open or closed system? Why do you think the matrix is not
correct? Suppose that the matrix does turn out to be correct. What is your recommendation
about z? What should be the output levels of the remaining two products (x and y)? 8
(Alternative question to Q No 4: for backlog students only)
