Given a consumption matrix  
\[C\]
  and a demand vector  
\[\mathbf{D}\]
  we can construct a production vector  
\[P\]
  using the relationship  
\[(I-C)\mathbf{P}=\mathbf{D} \rightarrow \mathbf{P}=(I-C)^{-1} \mathbf{D}\]
.
Example:  
\[C=\left( \begin{array}{cc} -1 & 3 \\ 1 & -1 \end{array} \right), \mathbf{D}=\begin{pmatrix}1\\3\end{pmatrix}\]
.
\[\begin{equation} \begin{aligned} \mathbf{P}&=(I-C)^{-1} \mathbf{D} \\ &= (\left( \begin{array}{cc} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{array} \right)-\left( \begin{array}{cc} -1 & 3 \\ 1 & -1 \end{array} \right))^{-1}\begin{pmatrix}1\\3\end{pmatrix} \\ &= \left( \begin{array}{cc} 2 & -3 \\ -1 & 2 \end{array} \right)^{-1} \begin{pmatrix}1\\3\end{pmatrix} \\ &= \left( \begin{array}{cc} 2 & 3 \\ 1 & 2 \end{array} \right) \begin{pmatrix}1\\3\end{pmatrix} \\ &= \begin{pmatrix}11\\7\end{pmatrix} \end{aligned} \end{equation}\]
