In this paper, we investigate the computational complexity of the knapsack problem and subset sum problem for the following tropical algebraic structures. We consider the semigroup of square matrices of size $k \times k$ with non-negative entries over the max-plus algebra and the semigroup square matrices of size $k \times k$ with positive entries over the max-times algebra. We prove that the knapsack problem and subset sum problem for these structures are $\textsf{NP}$-complete. We demonstrate that there are pseudo-polynomial algorithms to solve these problems. Also, we show that for the latter semigroup, there are polynomial generic algorithms to solve the knapsack problem and the subset sum problem.
