Question:

Orange, a computer manufacturer, produces a very basic laptop computer at a low price of $300 but also produces a more sophisticated model at a price of $2,500 [and many other models in between!]. At the end of 2017, Orange had sold 10,000 of the low-priced laptop and 800 of the higher priced model. In 2018, the country experienced economic growth of 5%. This economic growth of 5% is equated with an increase in national income of 5%. At the end of 2018, Orange had sold 9,000 of the cheaper model, and 900 of the more expensive laptop. 

1. Calculate the YEO for each model.
