Problem 3: Agricultural Household Chantal lives with her husband and three children in the village of Gicymbi in Northern Rwanda. Her family is an agricultural household that produces beans for household consumption and if their production is more than what they consume, they sell the remaining in the local market of Gicumbi, If they produce less than they must consume, her household purchases beans from the local market. In this problem, we will answer how the welfare of Chantal's household gets affected when price of beans changes. (b) What happens to the well-being (utility) of Chantal's household, i.e., the total effect of a price change in beans is ambiguous. Explain in a few sentences using the concepts of price effect and profit effect. To complete the description of Chantal's household consumption, let us assume they consume two more items cassava and maize, which they do not produce. The following table provides the details of their production and consumption. Fill out the…
tea while Sylvania has a comparative advantage in the Candonia has a comparative advantage in the production of production of potatoes ▼ Suppose that Candonia and Sylvania specialize in the production of the goods in which each has a comparative advantage. After specialization, the two countries can produce a total of 24 million pounds of tea and 24 million pounds of potatoes. A-Z Suppose that Candonia and Sylvania agree to trade. Each country focuses its resources on producing only the good in which it has a comparative advantage. The countries decide to exchange 4 million pounds of potatoes for 4 million pounds of tea. This ratio of goods is known as the price of trade between Candonia and Sylvania. The following graph shows the same PPF for Candonia as before, as well as its initial consumption at point A. Place a black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate Candonia's consumption after trade. Note: Dashed drop lines will automatically extend to both axes. Candonia 32 28 5:15…

6. Suppose the United States can produce cattle or corn with a given amount of resources. Attached is a graph depicting the production possibility frontier for the United States and the marginal benefit and cost of a bushel of corn. You are asked to discuss the relationship between the marginal cost and marginal benefit of corn and the production of both corn and cattle.
