Please help me solve this multi-part question. Thanks! Suppose that Freedonia and Desonia agree to trade. Each country focuses its resources on producing only the good in which it has a comparativeadvantage. The countries decide to exchange 4 million pounds of grain for 4 million pounds of sugar. This ratio of goods is known as the price oftrade between Freedonia and Desonia.The following graph shows the same PPF for Freedonia as before, as well as its initial consumption at point A. Place a black point (plus symbol) on thegraph to indicate Freedonia's consumption after trade.Note: Dashed drop lines will automatically extend to both axes.Freedonia3228Consumption After Trade24PPF2016124.4121620242832GRAIN (Millions of pounds)SUGAR (Millions of pounds) The following graph shows the same PPF for Desonia as before, as well as its initial consumption at point A.As you did for Freedonia, place a black point (plus symbol) on the following graph to indicate Desonia's consumption after trade.Desonia3228Consumption After Trade242016PPF84121620242832GRAIN (Millions of pounds)True or False: Without engaging in international trade, Freedonia and Desonia would not have been able to consume at the after-trade consumptionbundles.

Suppose that Maldonia and Lamponia agree to trade. Each country focuses its resources on producing only the good in which it has a comparative advantage. The countries decide to exchange 16 million pounds of lemons for 16 million pounds of sugar. This ratio of goods is known as the terms of trade between Maldonia and Lamponia. The following graph shows the same PPF for Maldonia as before, as well as its initial consumption at point A.

Specialization and trade When a country has a comparative advantage in the production of a good, it means that it can produce this good at a lower opportunity cost than its trading partner. Then the country will specialize in the production of this good and trade it for other goods. The following graphs show the production possibilities frontiers (PPFS) for Maldonia and Lamponia.

The production possibilities frontier (PPF) for Honduras and Brazil, representing hypothetical levels of production, are shown in the graphs. Assume that, without trade, each country is initially producing and consuming at point A on its PPF curve. Suppose these countries decide to trade. Each country will specialize in the production of the good for which it has a comparative advantage. Assume the countries agree to trade. The terms of trade are 6000 tons of bananas for 4000 tons of steel. Move the post‑trade consumption point for each country to reflect their post‑trade consumption. Which good will each country produce? Honduras will produce bananas and Brazil will produce steel. Brazil will produce both bananas and steel. Honduras will produce both bananas and steel. Honduras will produce steel and Brazil will produce bananas.

A country may specialize in the production of a good that it can produce at a lower opportunity cost than its trading partners. Because of this comparative advantage, countries benefit when they specialize and trade with each other.

Both countries produce grain and tea, each initially (i.e., before specialization and trade) producing 24 million pounds of grain and 12 million pounds of tea, as indicated by the grey stars marked with the letter A.
