Which country exports good X, which country imports good X? Explain Mark is the relative price...
Suppose Country X exports good A and imports good B. And, Country Y exports good B and imports good A. When country Y imposes an import tariff, what happens to the terms of trade in these countries and what is the impact of this on economic welfare (assume no other factor determines economic welfare).
1.The following statements about intra-industry trade
are true, except one. Which one?
a. It reflects the trade in similar goods between countries.
b. It results from economies of scale.
c. It results from comparative advantage.
d. It does not affect income distribution as much as
inter-industry trade.
2.Consider the following diagram. P is the autarky
production point, and C is the free trade consumption point.
P1 represents autarky prices and P2
represents free-trade prices.
In this case, the autarky consumption...
17. In the following graph showing indifference curves for country A (a) and for country B (b) in a situation where both countries have the same production possibilities frontier, in autarky, Px/Py in country A is Px/Py in country B, and, if trade begins, country A will export good good Y sood X a. less than; X b. less than; Y c. greater than; X d. greater than; Y 18. Given the following diagram showing a fixed-quantity production-possibilities frontier, a...
The diagram below pictures the economy of a country capable of producing steel and wheat. It is currently engaged in international trade with another country. The diagram includes a production possibility frontier, an indifference curve the country finds itself at, and an isovalue line.

31. In deriving an offer curve for a country, if a higher price of exports/price of imports leads to a reduction in the quantity of exports which the country is willing to supply, then, in this range of the offer curve, the offer curve is said to be a. inelastic b. unit-elastic c. elastic d. inelastic, unit-elastic, or elastic - cannot be determined without more information 32. Suppose that country I is importing good Y and exporting good X. At...
Thank you so much.
Heckscher-Ohlin Model 2. There are two countries, Home and Foreign. There are two goods: beer (6) and corn (C), which are produced in both countries using capital (K) and labor (L). In both countries, it takes 2 units of labor and 1 unit of capital to make beer (a Lb = 2, akb = 1); and it takes 5 units of labor and 5 units of capital to make corn (ale = 5, ako = 5)....
Let us assume a 2x2x2 model (country H & F, good A & B, factors L & K). The two countries are identical except L < L* and K > K* More over good A is labor intensive and good B is capital intensive. (a) Draw the production possibility frontier of the two countries. (You need to measure A on the horizontal axis). (b) Using factor prices w & r, commodity prices Pa & Pb, derive the relation between the...
If country X has imports valued at $0.4 trillion, exports valued at $4.7 trillion, and GDP valued at $11 trillion, calculate the index of openness for country X. Round to two decimal places. In the figure above, A=33, B=26, C=21, D=8.2, E=11.4, F=14.3, G=17.6, H=20.2. What's the loss in consumer surplus when moving from free trade to the quota price? Enter as a positive number and round to two decimal places.
HW#1 Consider a country that produces 2 units of X and 2 units of Y in autarky and under free trade. The international prices are as follows: Px is 2 and Py is 1. Let utility function of this country: U(X, Y) = XY. a. What is GDP of this country in respect of international trade? Furthermore what is the budget constraint under free trade? b. Calculate utility level under autarky (i.e., closed economy). c. Calculate optimal amount of X...
Question 01. Suppose that both the U.S. and Japan can produce computers and bushels of wheat using only labor (i.e., two countries, two goods, one factor Ricardian model). One U.S. worker can produce 3 computers or 10 bushels of wheat. One Japanese worker can produce 2 computers or 5 bushels of wheat. Given that the U.S. has 100 workers and Japan has 180 workers, answer each of the following parts. Show your work for credit. A. Which country has the...
