8. Comparative advantage and import competition Bulgaria recently joined the European Union (EU) and faces intense import competition from other EU members, such as Greece. Suppose you have the following data on labor productivity for footwear and beef production in Bulgaria and Greece. Assume that footwear and beef production are measured in constant dollars reflecting the value of the products. Use the Ricardian model to analyze possible effects on each country's footwear and beef industries when answering the questions that follow. Sales per Employee Footwear Beef Country (Dollars per year) (Dollars per year) Bulgaria 52,000 26,000 Greece 78,000 31,200 The table suggests that Greece has an absolute advantage over Bulgaria in and a comparative advantage in footwear The table suggests that wages in Bulgaria are in Greece. beef neither product As a result of Bulgaria's joining the EU, employment in Bulgaria is likely to both products True or False: The degree of openness of the…

Assume that the people of Phobos and Deimos (the moons of Mars) use equal resources to produce consumer and capital goods, as illustrated in the table below showing maximum possible production figures. Country Capital Goods Consumer Goods Phobos 20 units 120 units Deimos 60 units 120 units Draw a fully labeled production possibility curve for Phobos. Place capital goods on the vertical axis and consumer goods on the horizontal axis. Assume constant opportunity cost.

QUESTION 11 Assume that a country with a market economy produces capital goods and consumer goods, use the data that follows to answer the question that follows: TT Capital Goods Consumer Goods 25 20 20 15 40 10 60 80 100 Assuming that the country is using its resources efficiently, what is the opportunity cost of producing 5 more capital goods when the country is already producing 10 capital goods? Explain.
Graph 1: Draw a production possibilities model with 4 points labeled A, B, C, D, one inside, two on, and one outside the production possibilities curve. Explain the 4 points in terms of scarcity, choice, and efficiency. Graph 2: Draw a production possibilities model which illustrates economic growth. Graph 3: Draw a production possibilities model and using your own numbers, explain the concept of the law of increasing opportunity cost. Graph 4: Draw a production possibilities model for North Korea and label the Y axis Guns, and the X axis Butter.  Put two points, A and B, on the curve.  Using the two points, explain the concept of government (or market) failure.

Shifts in production possibilities Suppose Japan produces two types of goods: agricultural and capital. The following diagram shows its current production possibilities frontier for wheat, an agricultural good, and cars, a capital good. A-Z Drag the production possibilities frontier (PPF) on the graph to show the effects of a technological advance in medicine that allows workers to live longer and have extended careers. Note: Select either end of the curve on the graph to make the endpoints appear. Then drag one or both endpoints to the desired position. Points will snap into position, so if you try to move a point and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.
