If the permissions were changed, then the next ADSM backup should have
backed up the files again. Thus the files should be listed in the schedule

Yes, if you use 3 tapes for Monday night's backups, you will need 3 tapes to

But that is not sufficient for estimating the capacity you need in a tape

Over time the tapes will become less than 100% full.
