The Table below shows the amount of labor hours needed to produce cars and airplanes by Japan and Korea. Assume that each country has 2400 hours of labor available. If we were to draw the PPF for Japan and Korea putting cars in the horizontal axis, then: Table Labor Hours Needed to Make 1 Car 30 50 Airplane 150 150 Japan Korea O the slope of Japan's PPF would be -5 and the slope of Korea's PPF would be-3 O the slope of Japan's PPF would be -0.2 and the slope of Korea's PPF would be -0.33 D the slope of Japan's PPF would be -0.25 and the slope of Korea's PPF would be -0.33. D the slope of Japan's PPF would be -5 and the slope of Korea's PPF would be -0.33.

I don't understand the second part of this homework. If Frankie and Johnny completely specialize according to comparative advantage, what will happen to the amount of eggs and milk? I have the opportunity cost calculated to understand who should do what in this case. But what will I do to that number?
Consider two neighboring island countries called Bellissima and Dolorium. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce rye, jeans, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of rye or jeans that can be produced using 1 hour of labor. Rye Jeans Country (Bushels per hour of labor) (Pairs per hour of labor) Bellissima 12 24 Dolorium 8 32 Initially, suppose Bellissima uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce rye and 3 million hours per week to produce jeans, while Dolorium uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce rye and 1 million hours per week to produce jeans. Consequently, Bellissima produces 12 million bushels of rye and 72 million pairs of jeans, and Dolorium produces 24 million bushels of rye and 32 million pairs of jeans. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so, in the absence trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of rye and jeans it produces. v of…
The four people listed below are the only workers In an economy that works 10 hours per day and only produces two products. Use the table below and the questlons below to construct a PPF that displays the maximum efficlent production. Basketballs Per Hour Apple Pies Per Hour LeBron 1 Anthony Rajon 2. Alex 3. X-axis - ples Y-axis - basketballs Which of the following coordinates represents the point at which all the economic actors above specialize on the production of the good which they are most efficient, except Alex who focuses on basketball production? O a (90, 140) O b (110, 70) (140, 70) O d (100, 100) 44m
Assume that there are two Countries, Gabon and Togo. Togo can either produce 100 tons of Palm oil or 120 meters of cloth using their resources to the maximum and most efficiently. Gabon on the other hand can produce either 180 tons of palm oil or 50 meters of cloth using all their resources to the maximum and most efficiently. Assume that both countries experience constant opportunity cost in production: i) Draw PPF for each country placing palm oil on the y-axis. ii) Identify the comparative advantage for each country. Explain in terms of opportunity cost. iii) Indicate the trend of trade if the two countries had to trade
Home has 1200 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 3, while in bananas production it is 2. There is now also another country, Foreign, with a labor force of 800. Foreign’s unit labor requirement in apple production is 5, while in bananas production it is 1. e) Show that how both Home and Foreign countries gain from trade. use PPF graph.
Two planets, Endor and Kamino, both produce two goods, blasters and radio devices. The below graphs show the PPF curves of each planet before specialization. Initially, each planet produces 50,000 radio devices and 5,000 blasters. In total, 100,000 radios and 10,000 blasters are produced. Which planet has a comparative advantage in producing radios and which planet has a comparative advantage in producing blasters? If each planet was to fully specialize in producing one good, how many radios in total would be produced and how many blasters in total would be produced? Suppose that the two planets trade 5,000 blasters for 90,000 radios. Graph and label the new points on each planet’s PPF using the graphs above. What is the outcome of specialization and trade for each planet?
Assume that Bangladesh can make 100 square yards of textiles (T) OR 20 computer chips (CC) per day, while Taiwanese worker can make 60 square yards of textiles (T) OR 90 computer chips (CC) per day. Assume that: at of 1) in autarky, each country produced at the midpoint of their PPCS uestion 2) each country completely specializes in the appropriate product 3) 40 square yards of T are exchanged for 40 units of CC.

On the same graph, draw two PPFs: one for Arizona and one for North Dakota. Assume Arizona can produce 80 bales of hay or 20 pounds of sunflowers. North Dakota can produce 30 bales of hay or 120 pounds of sunflowers. For both states, points in between these limits are possible. Show how the total production of hay and sunflowers is greater with specialization than with self-sufficiency. Assume that the states trade 20 bales of hay for 30 pounds of sunflowers. Demonstrate the gains from trade with points on your graph. 1. Explain the opportunity costs of producing 1 bale of hay and 1 pound of sunflowers for each state. 2. Draw your own PPF graph on a piece of paper. 3. Clearly label all axes and lines. Include all relevant information.
