suppose you ar etrying to determine the aftereffects of hurricane Katrina on the economy of Louisiana. Which assumptions could be made to simplify the study? Note that not all statements may be placed. 1. consider the effects on all of Louisiana's interstate trade partnters 2. focus on just the crawfish-and catfish-farming industries in Louisiana 3. determin the effects while holding the infrastructure and factors of production constant 4. track the total net worth of the output produced by the state prior to the hurrican and after the hurricane 5. compare the change in prices for all goods
tea while Sylvania has a comparative advantage in the Candonia has a comparative advantage in the production of production of potatoes ▼ Suppose that Candonia and Sylvania specialize in the production of the goods in which each has a comparative advantage. After specialization, the two countries can produce a total of 24 million pounds of tea and 24 million pounds of potatoes. A-Z Suppose that Candonia and Sylvania agree to trade. Each country focuses its resources on producing only the good in which it has a comparative advantage. The countries decide to exchange 4 million pounds of potatoes for 4 million pounds of tea. This ratio of goods is known as the price of trade between Candonia and Sylvania. The following graph shows the same PPF for Candonia as before, as well as its initial consumption at point A. Place a black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate Candonia's consumption after trade. Note: Dashed drop lines will automatically extend to both axes. Candonia 32 28 5:15…
