R Imagine that it costs $40 in the United States to produce one ton of soybeans and transport them to market, while it costs $30 in Brazil to produce one ton of soybeans and transport them to market Imagine that it costs $20,000 in the United States to produce one automobile and transport it to maket, while costs $10,000 in Brazil to produce one automobile and transport it to market. Which of the following four arrangements would be most efficient? (Hint: Derived OC from PPF (production) = 1/OC derived from costs to make ) a. The United States should produce everything, since it can produce both soybeans and automobiles better than Brazil can produce them. Ob. Brazil should specialize and produce only automobiles. The United States should specialize and produce only soybeans. Then the two countries should trade with each other. Brazil will send automobiles to the United States, while the United States sends soybeans to the Brazil. Oc. The United States should specialize and produce…

Refer to the production possibility frontiers for two friends Frodo and Sam who can both produce Ice creams and Jelly beans. Frodo's maximum production of Ice creams is 500 with no Jelly beans, or 2,000 Jelly beans with no Ice creams. Sam's maximum production of Ice creams is 600 with no Jelly beans, or 1,200 Jelly beans with no Ice creams. ICE CREAMS ICE CREAMS 600 500 1200 JELLY BEANS 2000 JELLY BEANS Frodo' PPF Sam's PPF Answer briefly these TWO questions in the box space provided below. Part A: Assuming efficient production without trade, derive the maximum amount of Jelly beans that can be produced by Sam along with 300 Ice creams. Describe your steps in detail. Part B: Assume that Frodo and Sam agree to specialize in production and trade between themselves. Frodo offers 1,000 Jelly beans to Sam in exchange for 300 lce creams. Would Sam agree to this trade?

Suppose the economy produced 8 guns and 12 pounds of butter per period. O This is a possible choice but is inefficient. O This combination invalidates the notion of increasing opportunity cost. O The economy is still efficient but does not buy as much as it could. Something must be done to reduce the amount of employment.
Im wondering how do i solve this problem?
9. A Suppose another economy has two goods: iron and copper. The production of one unit of iron requires 0.1 units of iron and 0.2 units of copper. The production of one unit of copper requires 0.8 units of iron and 0.6 units of copper. What is the demand met by producing 50 units of iron and 40 units of copper? B. Using the same technology matrix as the previous problem, find the production schedule required to meet a demand of 200 units of iron and 100 units of copper.
