Assume that Trinbago is a small country that produces wine and motor vehicles, where motor vehicles are capital intensive. Trinbago is also capital intensive, and the standard Heckscher -Ohlin (H-O) assumptions hold. The other country in the model is Vincyland.
What recommendations would you give?
How does the growing “McDonaldization” of developing countries spell more badnews for their small farmers? (This, despite the fact that all the new restaurants will,of course, be buying plenty of agricultural products grown on farms.)
The Kaya identity states: F = P* (G/P) * (E/G)
(F/E). Explain in words what F, as well as each
of the four multiplicative terms on the right
side of the equation, represents. Explain how
the Kaya identity indicates the types of
countries (or state) that are likely to be large
contributors to greenhouse gas emissions.
Explain how the Kaya Identity is useful to
policy makers.

For example, according to World Bank data, coffee constitutes almost 90% of Burundi’s total exports. Therefore, changes in demand or supply of coffee can have significant effects on the health of Burundi’s economy. The current world price of coffee is $5.00 per pound, but there is uncertainty about the shape of the demand and supply curves. The following graphs (scenario A and scenario B) show two possibilities for demand and supply in the market for coffee. Suppose that favorable growing conditions cause an increase in the global supply of coffee. On the following graph, shift the demand or supply curve of scenario A to show what happens in the market for coffee as a result of this event. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it…arrow_forward
