Consider two neighboring island countries called Arcadia and Dolorium. They each have 4 million labor hours available per month 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. Corn Jeans Country (Bushels per hour of labor) (Pairs per hour of labor) Arcadia 10 Dolorium 16 Initially, suppose Arcadia uses 1 million hours of labor per month to produce corn and 3 million hours per month to produce jeans, while Dolorium uses 3 million hours of labor per month to produce corn and 1 million hours per month to produce jeans. Consequently, Arcadia produces 5 million bushels of corn and 30 million pairs of jeans, and Dolorium produces 12 million bushels of corn and 16 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 of corn and jeans it produces. Arcadia's…
Suppose that Bob and Jimmy both have 10 hours of time that they can use to do one of two things: make pasta or make hamburgers. Bob can make 15 hamburgers in one hour and 3 plates of pasta in one hour. Jimmy can make 8 hamburgers in one hour and 2 plates of pasta in one hour. Who has comparative in the production of hamburgers? Who has comparative advantage in the production of pasta? If Bob and Jimmy trade, who should specialize in producing hamburgers and who should specialize in producing pancakes? Give an example of terms of trade at which mutually beneficial trade would be possible between Bob and Jimmy.

Shifts in production possibilities Suppose Japan produces two types of goods: agricultural and capital. The following diagram shows its current production possibilities frontier for wheat, an agricultural good, and cars, a capital good. A-Z Drag the production possibilities frontier (PPF) on the graph to show the effects of a technological advance in medicine that allows workers to live longer and have extended careers. Note: Select either end of the curve on the graph to make the endpoints appear. Then drag one or both endpoints to the desired position. Points will snap into position, so if you try to move a point and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.
