- If all countries follow a policy of free trade, economists predict that O a. each country will export goods at which it has a comparative advantage at producing and import goods at which it has a comparative disadvantage at producing Ob each country will export goods at which it has a comparative disadvantage at producing and import goods at which it has a comparative advantage at producing Oc there will be no trade between countries - that is, no international trade taking place Od rich countries will be made poorer by trade with poor countries O e. poor countries will be made even poorer by trade with rich countriesConsider two neighboring island countries called Contente and Euphoria. 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. ols Corn Jeans Country (Bushels per hour of labor) (Pairs per hour of labor) Contente 16 A-Z Euphoria 20 Initially, suppose Contente uses 1 million hours of labor per month to produce corn and 3 million hours per month to produce jeans, while Euphoria uses 3 million hours of labor per month to produce corn and 1 million hours per month to produce jeans. Consequently, Contente produces million bushels of corn and 48 million pairs of jeans, and Euphoria produces 15 million bushels of corn and 20 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. ▼….Brazil can produce 100 pounds of beef or 10 autos; in contrast the United States can produce 40pounds of beef or 30 autos. Which country has the absolute advantage in beef? Which country has theabsolute advantage in producing autos? What is the opportunity cost of producing one pound of beef inBrazil? What is the opportunity cost of producing one pound of beef in the United States?
- Two countries, Korea and Vietnam, are engaging in international trade.They produce two goods: automobiles and cloth. We observe a relativeabundance of cheap labor in Vietnam and a relative abundance of capitalin South Korea. a. Assume that automobiles are capital-intensive and cloth are cheaplabor-intensive. Using the Hecksher-Ohlin theory, explain what willhappen in trade between these two countries, in terms of export andimport. c. Draw a graph that shows the above situation in South Korean economy with a P P F and two relative prices (one before trade and theother after trade). The quantity of automobiles (QAuto) is on thehorizontal axis and the quantity of cloth (QCloth) is on the verticalaxis.Qus4 If one person has the absolute advantage in producing both of two goods, then that person Group of answer choices cannot have a comparative advantage in either good should specialize in the production of both goods will have the comparative advantage in only one good cannot benefit from trade must also have a comparative advantage in both goods.
