An economy has three industries, farming, building, and clothing. For every dollar of food produced, the farmers use $0.07, the builders use $0.11, and the tailors use $0.15. For every dollar of building, the builders use $0.12, the farmers use $0.05, and the tailors use $0.14. For every dollar of clothing produced, the tailors use $0.13, the builders use $0.1, and the farmers use $0.07. This produces I/O matrix, A, where A =   0.07 0.05 0.07     0.11 0.12 0.1     0.15 0.14 0.13   If the external demand for food ( farm production) is $270 million, for building is $220 million, and for clothing is $170 million, what should be the total production for each industry? Farming production = $ million Building production = $ million Clothing production = $ million

Question

An economy has three industries, farming, building, and clothing. For every dollar of food produced, the farmers use $0.07, the builders use $0.11, and the tailors use $0.15. For every dollar of building, the builders use $0.12, the farmers use $0.05, and the tailors use $0.14. For every dollar of clothing produced, the tailors use $0.13, the builders use $0.1, and the farmers use $0.07.

This produces I/O matrix, A, where A =

  0.07 0.05 0.07  
  0.11 0.12 0.1  
  0.15 0.14 0.13  



If the external demand for food ( farm production) is $270 million, for building is $220 million, and for clothing is $170 million, what should be the total production for each industry?



Farming production = $ million
Building production = $ million
Clothing production = $ million
