Question

When given this information (Y denotes output and L denotes hours of Labour. T is for traded goods and N is for non-traded goods), how do I work out the price level p£ and p$?

Initially I said p£=0.4/0.8= 0.5 and p$=0.8/0/4=2 which I don't think is correct, as then the price of non-traded goods is really small for both £ and $.

​​​​​​​Please can someone help me with working out the price level p£ and dollar level p$. Thanks​​​​​​​

Y = 0.4L
Y = 0.8L
Y = 0.5L%
Y$ = 0.5L
Transcribed Image Text:Y = 0.4L Y = 0.8L Y = 0.5L% Y$ = 0.5L
