Consider an international trade model consisting of three countries X, Y, and Z. Suppose X uses domestically, sends of its production to Y, and sends of its production to Z. Suppose Y uses domestically, sends of its production to X, and sends of its production to Z. Suppose Z uses sends of its production to X and sends of its production to Y. Assume this is a closed Leontief model. of its production of its production of its domestic goods, If we know country Z produced 124 thousand units of goods, then country X produces country Y produces thousand units of goods. thousand units of goods and
Consider the case of two (2) countries, China and South Africa, both producing textiles and beer. The table below shows output rates per day in the two (2) countries, if all resources are fully and efficiently employed. Use the information given to answer question 8 and 9. Textiles Beer China 5 10 South Africa 1 6 Refer to the table given in Question 8. Which of the following statements is correct? There is no opportunity for mutually beneficial trade between the two (2) countries. China's opportunity cost in the production of beer is lower than that of South Africa. China's opportunity cost in the production of beer is higher than that of South Africa. South Africa should produce textiles only and China should produce beer only and both countries should then trade with one another.
Consider a simplified example of two countries - Singapore and Indonesia - producing two goods – telecommunications equipment and electrical circuit apparatus. Using all its resources, Singapore can produce either 50 telecommunications equipment, or 100 electrical circuit apparatus. Using all its resources, Indonesia can produce either 1,000 telecommunications equipment, or 5,000 circuit apparatus. (a) Which country/countries has/have the absolute advantages and the comparative advantages in the production of telecommunications equipment, and of electrical circuit apparatus? Explain and show. (b) Consider the case of constant opportunity cost. What will be the resulting patterns of trade, terms-of-trade, and the aggregate production and consumption? Provide a diagram to illustrate, with telecommunications equipment on the y-axis. (c) It is found that contrary to the above, there is no complete specialisation in both Singapore and Indonesia. Instead, Singapore partially specialises in…
"Victory or defeat in wars always brings the same result: destruction, It’s pointless to become the leading economy in a sinking world." in a context of US-Sino tariff war that will potentially spur the global trade war. But apparently, US is only protecting her domestic industry from the Chinese aggressive invasion. Is it true there is no other choice? So will it be possible to have a middle ground? As an economist, what do you see from this conflict?
Assume that the world economy is composed of only two countries (Canada and the United States) and only two goods (steel and wheat). The table below reports the units of steel or wheat per unit of labor in Canada and in the United States Steel per Wheat per unit of labor unit of labor Canada United States 9. 3 Suppose both the US and Canada have 10 units of labor. Use the joint PPF to answer the following: If the two countries are producing 25 units of wheat, what is the opportunity cost of wheat? Hint: draw the PPF and ask what is the slope when 25 units are being produced? 2.5 2.75 3
Two countries, Home (H) and Foreign (F) trade agricultural and manufacturing goods (A and M, respectively). Production of either good requires skilled and unskilled labor. Unskilled workers can freely move from one sector to another, while skilled workers cannot. Identify mobile and industry-specific factors of production (b) Suppose Home is relatively more productive in agriculture than Foreign. Draw two diagrams, one for H one for F, which illustrate no-trade equilibrium in each county. Compare relative price of agricultural goods in two countries.
a) Let us assume an economy of 3 firms A, B and C whose supply of a commodity at different prices is depicted in the following table. Draw the supply curve of each individual and the market supply.

Suppose that a worker in Country A can produce either 6 units of corn or 2 units of wheat per year, and a worker in Country B can produce either 2 units of corn or 6 units of wheat per year. Each nation has 10 workers. Without trade, Country A produces and consumes 30 units of corn and 10 units of wheat per year. Country B produces and consumes 10 units of corn and 30 units of wheat. Suppose that trade is then initiated between the two countries, and Country A sends 30 units of corn to Country B in exchange for 30 units of wheat. Country A will now be able to consume a maximum of Select one: a.30 units of corn and 30 units of wheat. b.40 units of corn and 20 units of wheat. c.40 units of corn and 30 units of wheat. d.10 units of corn and 40 units of wheat.
Consider the following model of trade between Home and Foreign. Assume throughout that those two countries are the only two countries in the world, at least for purposes of trade. There are two goods: Corn and Radio. Consumers always spend one-third of their income on Corn and the remainder on Radios. The only factor of production is labour. Each home country worker can produce 2 units of Corn or 3 units of Radios per unit of time, while each foreign worker can produce 2 units of Corn or 4 units of Radios per unit of time. There are 30 workers in Home and 60 workers in Foreign. Which country has a comparative advantage in Radios? In Corn?
? illustrate an example of trade induced by comparative advantage. They assume that China and France each have 1,000 production units. With one unit of production (a mix of land, labor, capital, and technology), China can produce either 10 containers of toys or 7 cases of wine. France can produce either 2 cases of toys or 7 cases of wine. Thus, a production unit in China is five times as efficient compared to France when producing toys, but equally efficient when producing wine. Assume at first that no trade takes place. China allocates 800 production units to building toys and 200 production units to producing wine. France allocates 200 production units to building toys and 800 production units to producing wine. Trade at France’s Domestic Price. France’s domestic price is 2 containers of toys equals 7 cases of wine. Assume China produces 10,000 containers of toys and exports 400 containers to France. Assume France in turn produces 7,000 cases of wine and exports 1,400…
Suppose that there are 10,000 hours of labor available in Canada, and that 15 hours of labor are required to produce one unit of cotton, while 5 hours are required to produce one unit of butter. When trade occurs, the world relative price of cotton (in terms of butter) is 2, and Canada exports 800 units of butter. Find out Canada's imports of cotton would be units. Note: If your answer is an integer, please put in an integer. If your answer is a fraction, please simplify it or convert it to a decimal.
