  1. About the iPad When did the iPad first originate? Decided in the end to build a phone with the same functions Idea first conceived by Steve Jobs even before that of the iPhone ; He wanted ‘a glass, multi-touch display’ Hence had its origins way back in 2007

  2. About the iPad How is the price of iPad determined? Quantity demanded by consumers; change in quantity demanded would result in a change in the price of a good so as to maximize profits, ceteris paribus By calculating the estimated total revenue minus production cost, aiming to maximize profits Observing the price of close substitutes

A fall in the price of the apps will lead to more quantity demanded, hence causing an increase in the demand for iPads since they need to be used jointly. Accessories (such as the iPad smart cover and the Apple wireless keyboard) are also complements to the iPad. The demand for iPads is very responsive to the change in the price of the apps and accessories.
