American firms outsource many jobs to other, lower cost countries. How can this outsourcing actually lead to increased employment here in the USA? How can there be any economic gains for a country from both importing and exporting the same good, like cars?
The table below shows the production of oil and lumber of ONE worker in China and India: rice (in pounds) shirts (unit) CHINA 400 200 INDIA 330 110 a) BEFORE trade (or with no trade), each country has 100 workers, and they allocate the worker for the production of the goods in the following way: China allocates 35 workers in the production of rice, and 65 workers in the production of shirts; India allocates 50 workers in the production of rice and 50 workers in the production of shirts. Find the maximum production and consumption of both goods for each country! b) If the countries decide to engage in trade (WITH TRADE), they will specialize in the production of the good in which they have comparative advantage. In which good should China specialize? How about India? JUSTIFY! (To answer this question you must calculate the opportunity cost of each good for both countries and then find the country's comparative advantage). What is the WITH TRADE production of the countries? c) If the…

In Ecuador, cut roses are one of the country’s leading exports. Prior to advancements in the air transportation industry, this would have been impossible as roses must be sold within three to five days once cut. Today Ecuador is one of the world’s top producers of roses. What are the various trade theories that help explain ecuador’s competitive position in exporting roses? Then consider how well the Ecuadorian rose industry has balanced exporting success with socially responsible business practices.
Consider two countries Home and Foreign producing goods using only one factor of production, Labor. These are the marginal products of labor. Home has 100 people and foreign has 50 people. Home: Wheat 4 bushels Cloths 2 yards Foreign: Wheat 1 bushel Cloths 1 yard Assuming there is no trade, draw production possibility frontiers of two countries. With no trade, what are the relative prices of wheat and cloths in two countries? What will happen when they begin to trade?
Imagine that you work for the World Bank and you have been called to Ghana to aid the new president to come up with a new international trade strategy. You are told that the new government is interested in moving away from agriculture and into manufacturing. To do so, the government wants to pursuit a policy of import substitution industrialization (ISI). You are given a brief about Ghana highlighting the following points: About half of Ghana’s population depends on agriculture, but Ghana still imports some of its food. The majority of Ghana's people live in rural areas and exist on a subsistence way of life. Ghana has one of the highest rates of income inequality in the world. Nearly half of the population is employed in agriculture. Ghana imports and exports food from and to neighbouring Côte d'Ivoire. The latter nation is very similar to Ghana in most ways. Can you explain what may drive two very similar nations to trade?
Indian exports of computer software have grown rapidly since the early 2000s. In the early 2000s, the cost to employ programmers in India was about half the cost of programmers with comparable skills in the United States. In 2013 the cost in India was about two-thirds the cost in the United States. What trade theory or theories help us to understand the change?
Use the graph below to answer the following question: What is the total amount of shoes the US will export with free trade? Provide your answer below: Price (dollars) 50 25 15 United States Exports Supply Price with free trade Price with partial protection Price without trade 200 350 500 600 750 Quantity (shoes) Demand
Suppose two countries, A and B, trade two goods, Good 1 and Good 2. Production of both goods requires capital (K) and labor (L) and production of one unit of Good 1 requires more capital relative to labor than production of one unit of Good 2. We also know that ΚΑ > KB, where upper bars denote the total amount of a factor in a country. LB LA State the Heckscher-Ohlin theorem. What does it predict about trade patterns between countries A and B once they open up for trade? ii. Using a production possibility frontier and an indifference curve, draw a diagram that shows no-trade and free-trade equilibrium in country A.
Consider a small country that exports good Z. Some of the total quantity of Z that is domestically produced is consumed by domestic consumers and the rest of it is exported. Then suppose that the government imposed a ban (a prohibition) on Z being exported. Show the effects of this export ban using a carefully labelled demand and supply diagram. On your diagram, shade-in the area that represent the deadweight loss caused by the export ban (please do not shade-in any other areas) and explain your reasoning.
Please explain why the answer is false. Specializing in its comparative advantage and trading with other nations benefit a country in terms of its total output but not individuals when it comes to their wages.a.Trueb.False
Assume that an American worker can produce 5 cars per year or 10 tons of grain per year, whereas a Japanese worker can produce 15 cars per year or 5 tons of grain per year. Assume labor is the only input used in car and grain production. If free trade is allowed, which country will import cars? Which country will import grain? Explain and show your work.
