Suppose that Nation 1 is India, commodity X is textiles, and commodity Y is food. Starting from the no-trade equilibrium position and using the Heckscher-Ohlin model, trace the effect of this change in tastes on India's (a) relative commodity prices and demand for food and textiles (b) production of both commodities and factor prices (c) comparative advantage and volume of trade.

Home has 12,000 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 100, while in banana production is 75. There is now also another country, Foreign, with a labor force of 18,000. Foreign’s unit labor requirement in apple production is 120, while in banana production is 150. Graph Foreign’s PPF. Construct the world relative supply curve of banana. What will happen if ? Graph the relative demand curve along with the relative supply curve of banana. Assume: Demand for apples/ demand for bananas =half of price of bananas/ price of apples What is the equilibrium relative price of banana?
When a country has a comparative advantage in the production of a good, it means that it can produce this good at a lower opportunity cost than its trading partner. Then the country will specialize in the production of this good and trade it for other goods. The following graphs show the production possibilities frontiers (PPFS) for Yosemite and Rainier. Both countries produce com and lentils, each Initially (l.e., before specialization and trade) producing 30 million pounds of corn and 15 million pounds of lentils, as indicated by the grey stars marked with the letter A.

When a country has a comparative advantage in the production of a good, it means that it can produce this good at a lower opportunity cost than its trading partner. Then the country will specialize in the production of this good and trade it for other goods. The following graphs show the production possibilities frontiers (PPFs) for Glacier and Rainier.

Gains and Losses from Trade in the Specific-Factors Model - End of Chapter Problem Home produces two goods, computers and wheat, for which capital is specific to computers, land is specific to wheat, and labor is mobile between the two industries. Home has 100 workers and 100 units of capital but only 10 units of land. a. Suppose that when Home opens up to international trade, the price of computers rises. In the accompanying diagram, shift the appropriate curve to show this change, holding the price of wheat constant. b. The increase in the price of computers causes the Wage amount of labor used in wheat production a given quantity of labor 0 W The amount of labor used in computer production the change in the wage.
