Question 10: A manufacturer produces three products which he sells in two markets. Annual sales are
indicated below:
Market Products
product x y z
I 10000 2000 18000
II 6000 20000 8000
(a) If unit sale prices of and are ₹ 2.50 ,₹ 1.50and₹ 1.00, respectively, find the total
revenue in each market with the help of matrix algebra.
(b) If the unit costs of the above three commodities are ₹2 , ₹1 and 50paise respectively.
Find the gross profit.
Solution: (a) The unit sale prices of and are ₹2.50 , ₹1.50 and ₹ 1.00respectively.
Consequently, the total revenue in market I can be represented in the form of a matrix as:
Product matrix:
Sale price matirx:
The total revenue
Total revenue in I market= ₹46000
Total revenue in II market=₹53000
(b) The unit costs of and are ₹2.00 , ₹1.00 and 50 paise respectively.
Consequently,
total cost price of each market:
Profit:
Thus, the gross profit in market I is ₹ and in market II is ₹ .
Question 11: Find the matrix so that
Solution:
The matrix given on the R.H.S. of the equation is a
matrix and the one given on the L.H.S.of the equation is a matrix.
now, Let

Equating the corresponding elements of the two matrices,
we have:
Now,
solving and
we get ,
again solving
and
We get,
Hence the required matrix
