Suppose there exist two imaginary countries, Everglades and Denali. Their labor forces are each capable of supplying four million hours per day that can be used to produce shorts, almonds, or some combination of the two. The following table shows the amount of shorts or almonds that can be produced by one hour of labor. Country Shorts Almonds (Pairs per hour of labor) (Pounds per hour of labor) Everglades 4 16 Denali 6 12 Suppose that initially Denali uses 1 million hours of labor per day to produce shorts and 3 million hours per day to produce almonds, while Everglades uses 3 million hours of labor per day to produce shorts and 1 million hours per day to produce almonds. As a result, Everglades produces 12 million pairs of shorts and 16 million pounds of almonds, and Denali produces 6 million pairs of shorts and 36 million pounds of almonds. Assume there are no other countries willing to engage in trade, so, in the absence of trade between these two…

Consider two neighboring island countries called Bellissima and Felicidad. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce corn, jeans, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of corn or jeans that can be produced using 1 hour of labor. Country Corn Jeans (Bushels per hour of labor) (Pairs per hour of labor) Bellissima 8 16 Felicidad 5 20 Initially, suppose Bellissima uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce corn and 3 million hours per week to produce jeans, while Felicidad uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce corn and 1 million hours per week to produce jeans. Consequently, Bellissima produces 8 million bushels of corn and 48 million pairs of jeans, and Felicidad produces 15 million bushels of corn and 20 million pairs of jeans. 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…

Both Geppetto and Lewis are toy store owners. They decide that they would like to trade puzzles and puppets in order to better stock their toy store shelves. The table below compares their production possibilities schedules. Production Possibilities Schedules Geppetto Lewis Puzzles Puppets Puzzles Puppets 90 75 10 8 60 15 12 16 45 20 8 24 30 25 32 40 030 Instructions: Enter your answers as a whole number. a. Geppetto and Lewis agree to trade at a rate of 3 puzzles for each puppet. With those terms of trade, who is most likely to be the supplier of puzzles? Who is most likely to be the supplier of puppets? Puzzles: (Click to select) Puppets: (Click to select) b. The two toy store owners agree to specialize and to trade 30 puzzles for 10 puppets. The terms of trade are still 3 puzzles for each puppet. How many puzzles and puppets will each one have after they complete their trade? Lewis: puzzles and puppets Geppetto: puzzles and puppets
With a given amount of labor and other resources, producers in the nation of Germany can produce either 100 SUVs or 50 sedans. Thus, two SUVs must be given up to produce each sedan. Using the same amount of labor and resources, producers in Japan can produce 40 SUVs or 40 sedans- so one SUV must be given up for each sedan produced. Based on this information, Japan has a comparative advantage in the production of sedans. () a) True b) False
Martha and Dave like to make identical tacos and cakes. The time it takes Martha and Dave to make tacos and cakes is given in the table below. Martha Dave Time to make a taco 10 minutes 15 minutes Time to make a cake 20 minutes 30 minutes Which person has an absolute advantage in the production of tacos, and which person has an absolute advantage in the production of cakes? Group of answer choices Martha has an absolute advantage in producing both goods. Dave has an absolute advantage in producing both goods. Neither Dave nor Martha has an absolute advantage at producing either good. Both Martha and Dave have an absolute advantage in producing both goods. Martha has an absolute advantage in tacos; Dave has an absolute advantage in cakes.
Suppose the United States produces only two goods: alfalfa and computers. The following graph shows the United States’s current production possibilities frontier, along with six output combinations represented by black points (plus symbols) labeled A to F. Complete the following table by indicating whether each point represents output combinations that are inefficient, efficient, attainable, or unattainable. Check all that apply.

Suppose there exist two imaginary countries, Sequoia and Yosemite. Their labor forces are each capable of supplying four million hours per day that can be used to produce chinos, pistachios, or some combination of the two. The following table shows the amount of chinos or pistachios that can be produced by one hour of labor. Country Sequoia Yosemite Chinos Pistachios (Pairs per hour of labor) (Pounds per hour of labor) 4 16 10 is 5 Suppose that initially Yosemite uses 1 million hours of labor per day to produce chinos and 3 million hours per day to produce pistachios, while Sequoia uses 3 million hours of labor per day to produce chinos and 1 million hours per day to produce pistachios. As a result, Sequoia produces 12 million pairs of chinos and 16 million pounds of pistachios, and Yosemite produces 5 million pairs of chinos and 30 million pounds of pistachios. Assume there are no other countries willing to engage in trade, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each…
