Suppose that towns collect resources from their surroundings. Then, through trade, they attempt to obtain other desirable items. Mortarville, an urban town that specializes in brick and ore, wants wood to build roads so that it can expand and connect to other major cities. Mortarville has a willingness to pay $50 for wood, since wood is hard for them to obtain Mayflair also needs wood to build grain silos for their wheat harvests. Mayflair is willing to pay $45 for wood. Timber, the only foresting company, sets the price of wood at $60. The change in total surplus that arises due to trades between Timber and the towns is John finds a set of wood in his garage which he is willing to sell for no less than $35. John chooses to sell the set to Mayflair for $40 instead of to Mortarville for $45. As a result of John's transaction with Mayflair total surplus increased, but the market is inefficient total surplus decreased, and the market is inefficient total surplus increased, and the market…
Jason and Holly produce lollipops and chocolates. Their production possibilities are given by the following functions: Jason: Q = 140 - 10QC %3D Holly: Q = 110 - 5Qc !! Before they trade, Jason is producing and consuming 60 lollipops and 8 chocolates. Before they trade, Holly is producing and consuming 55 lollipops and 11 chocolates. Then they decide to specialize and trade based on comparative advantage. They agree to trade 66 lollipops for 9 chocolates. How many MORE lollipops will Jason have with trade compared to without trade? Answer:

Economics The matrix given below represents the pay offs to two large countries, Zombec and Firan, each importing different set of products from the other. Each country's government must choose between two distinct trade policies, free trade and optimal tariffs. Each policy choice represents a game strategy. Firan Zombec Free trade Optim al tariff 50 60 Free trade 50 30 30 40 60 Optimal tariff 40 Determine the Nash equilibrium (if any) in the trade policy game described above. O a. The Nash cquilibrium cannot be determined. O b.Zombec will choose free trade and Firan will choose optimal tariff Oc Zombec will choose optimal tariff and Firan will choose free trade. Od. Both the countries will choose free trade. e. Both countries will choose optimal tariff.

Consider two neighboring island countries called Dolorium and Contente. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce rye, jeans, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of rye or jeans that can be produced using 1 hour of labor. Country Rye Jeans (Bushels per hour of labor) (Pairs per hour of labor) Dolorium 5 20 Contente 8 16 Initially, suppose Contente uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce rye and 3 million hours per week to produce jeans, while Dolorium uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce rye and 1 million hours per week to produce jeans. Consequently, Dolorium produces 15 million bushels of rye and 20 million pairs of jeans, and Contente produces 8 million bushels of rye and 48 million pairs of jeans. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of rye and jeans…

Consider Figure 2-2 in Chapter 2. Assume the numbers on the y-axis 820 and 610 were changed to respectively 800 and 700. The opportunity cost of going from 240 to 480 units of food would now be _ and the law of increasing (opportunity) cost__ still hold. a) 100 // would b) 800 // would c) 700 // would not d) 100 // would not
