As international businesses look to emerging markets for growth opportunities and access to resources, they will evaluate the business environments of the countries under consideration. Argentina is the largest country in South America, and its terrain includes mountains, lakes, glaciers, and grasslands. It is resource rich—producing soybeans, wheat, wine, and beef. It has more arable land per person than all but five nations in the world. Argentina has the world’s third largest shale-oil and gas fields. With a population of more than 45 million and rich natural resources, Argentina might seem to be a desirable market for international businesses. Despite this, Argentina is known as a rich country made poor. Consider these points of interest about Argentina. In 1913, Argentina was the 10th wealthiest country in the world, ahead of Norway, France, Germany, and Japan. Today, it is in 85th place, behind Russia and China, with a per-capita income of $10,000. Demographically, Argentina…
Which of the following statements about helping poor countries are true? a) Opening our markets to their trade is by far a more effective way to help them that giving them foreign aid? b) Opening our markets to their trade not only doesn't cost us, it provides a net benefit to our economy as well c) We should always give as much foreign aid as we can directly to their governments d) If the "recipient" country does not have a responsible government or much in the way of civil society, foreign aid should be limited to things such as fighting disease, aid that is provided directly to the people, such as microfinance or infrastructure project provided directly avoiding passing funds through the "recipient" country governments, and aid conditional on reforms to improvements governance. e) We should protect our domestic industries against the lower wages of the poorer countries, so we may giv them foreign aid but should never open our markets to them.

The following five individuals have different utility functions over food (good x) and clothing (good y): 1) u₁(x, y) = 3x²y 2) u₂(x, y) = 2√x + y 3) Uz(x, y) = x0.6y0.4 4) u₁(x, y) = x² + y² 1 5) us(x, y) = x + 3y For each of these people: a) Compute their marginal utilities of good x, MUx = Ju(x,y) MU, = ду du(x,y) ax b) Check whether the property of "more is better" is satisfied for both goods? Explain. [Hint: Check whether marginal utilities are positive assuming positive amounts of good x and good y] ƏMUX əx and marginal utility of good y, c) Does the marginal utility of good x diminish, remain constant, or increase as each of the individuals buys more x? Explain. [Hint: There are 2 ways to do it: 1) visually check what happens to the expression of MUx when x increases (does it decrease, keep constant or decrease?); or 2) take the partial derivative of this marginal utility with respect to x, that is ƏMUx .aMUX ƏMUX If 0, the marginal utility of x is increasing in x] d) Does the…
