Dols5. Trading under increasing opportunity costsThe following graph shows the production possibilities frontier for the imaginary country of Contente under conditions of increasing costs. In theabsence of trade, the relative cost of wheat in Contente in terms of computers (or the marginal rate of transformation (MRT) of wheat intocomputers) is shown by the slope of line fi, tangent to the production possibilities frontier at point A.WHEAT (Bushels30012102403101801501200060R0:020 2412 144 10COMPUTERS101620Consumption After TradeWhich of the following most accurately describes Contente's economy in the absence of trade?Contente produces 6 computers and 234 bushels of wheat.O contente araduces and consumes 6 computers and 100 bushels of wheat.

The countries of Sanaton and Microtania each produce two goods: Airplanes and Computers. The table below lists the opportunity costs associated with producing each good, for each country. Country Opportunity cost of producing 1 Airplanes Opportunity cost of producing 1 Computers Sanaton 4 Computers 0.25 Airplanes 2 Airplanes Microtania 0.5 Computers Currently, Sanaton does not trade with Microtania, and on its own produces 19 Airplanes and 24 Computers. On their own, Microtania produces 30 Airplanes and 35 Computers. Calculate total world supply: Airplanes: → Computers: If Sanaton decided to change its production of Airplanes by -2, calculate the change in the production of Computers: If Microtania changed its production of Airplanes by 8, calculate the change in production of Computers: A
