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

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 Glacier and Denali.

Question 5 Suppose there are two countries Peru and Japan that produce Food and Fuel. Peru can produce 7,523 units of Food or 17,853 units of Fuel using a labour force of 8000. Japan can produce 5,733 units of Food or 24,156 units of Fuel using a labour force of 5000. a) On two separate graphs sketch the initial PPF for the two countries with Food on the x-axis. b) If Japan and Peru employ half its workers to produce Food and half to produce Fuel how much of each good can they consume? Label this point A and A* respectively. c) Which country has the absolute advantage in food? In fuel? Explain. d) Which country has the comparative advantage in food? In fuel? Explain. e) Which good(s) should each country specialize in? f) Discuss the benefits of specialization for each country.

Refer to Figure 3.6, page 55. Assume that the graph depicts the U.S. domestic market for corn. How many bushels of corn, if any, will the United States export or import at a world price of $1, $2, $3, $4, and $5? Use this information to construct the U.S. export supply curve and import demand curve for corn. Suppose the only other corn-producing nation is France, where the domestic price is $4. Which country will export corn; which will import it?

In December 2019, a bipartisan group of senators introduced a bill which would expand the authority of the United States Customs and Border Protection agency to seize counterfeit goods at the U.S. border that infringe on intellectual property rights. If passed, this legislation would prevent the importation of counterfeit products into the United States. The estimated global trade value of counterfeit products in 2019 was over $1 trillion.

Soucie, "Proposed Counterfeit Goods Seizure Act of 2019 Would Provide Design Patent Protection at the US Border," huntonretailindustryblog.com, December 18, 2019. If the Counterfeit Goods Seizure Act of 2019 does not become law, intellectual property rights do not receive the added protection from this act, and counterfeit goods continue to come across the border, which of the following would most likely occur in the United States?

I have attached my question in the form of an image. Kindly note that the question entails shifting the PPC curve. Please describe whether there will be an outward or inward shift on both ends. If there isn't an outward or inward shift, kindly describe which end shifts inwards and which end shifts outwards. I acknowledge that the question doesn't provide enough information to deduce a numerical quantity in terms of how much can or cannot be produced, but that is not needed. Only advise me as to which ends to shift upwards or downwards or the opposite if need be. The extent of their shift Is a negligible detail. Kindly proceed to the multiple-choice section afterward. Thank you.
