1. Gains from trade 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 jeans, rye, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of jeans or rye that can be produced using 1 hour of labor. Country Dolorium Contente Jeans Rye (Pairs per hour of labor) (Bushels per hour of labor) 20 16 Initially, suppose Contente uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 3 million hours per week to produce rye, while Dolorium uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 1 million hours per week to produce rye. Consequently, Dolorium produces 15 million pairs of jeans and 20 million bushels of rye, and Contente produces 8 million pairs of jeans and 48 million bushels of rye. 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 jeans and rye it produces.…

3. Gains from trade Suppose there exist two imaginary countries, Sequoia and Glacier. Their labor forces are each capable of supplying four million hours per day that can be used to produce pistachios, chinos, or some combination of the two. The following table shows the amount of pistachios or chinos that can be produced by one hour of labor. Pistachios Chinos Country (Pounds per hour of labor) (Pairs per hour of labor) Sequoia Glacier 5 8 20 16 Suppose that initially Glacier uses 1 million hours of labor per day to produce pistachios and 3 million hours per day to produce chinos, while Sequoia uses 3 million hours of labor per day to produce pistachios and 1 million hours per day to produce chinos. As a result, Sequoia produces 15 million pounds of pistachios and 20 million pairs of chinos, and Glacier produces 8 million pounds of pistachios and 48 million pairs of chinos. Assume there are no other countries willing to engage in trade, so, in the absence of trade between these two…
