Home has 1,200 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 3, while in banana production it is 2 There is now also another country, Foreign, with a labor force of 800. Foreign’s unit labor requirement in apple production is 5, while in banana production it is 1. Now suppose world relative demand takes the following form: Demand for apples/demand for bananas = price of bananas/price of apples. Graph the relative demand curve along with the relative supply curve. What is the equilibrium relative price of apples? Describe the pattern of trade. Show that both Home and Foreign gain from trade.
Home has 12,000 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 100, while in banana production is 75. There is now also another country, Foreign, with a labor force of 18,000. Foreign’s unit labor requirement in apple production is 120, while in banana production is 150. Construct the world relative supply curve of banana. What will happen if Pa/Pb < 4/5?
Assume that Home and Foreign produce only two goods – Cars and Tvs. Home has 400 units of labour available. In Home, the unit labour requirement in car production is 40 and in TV production it is 20. On the other hand, Foreign has 450 units of labour available. Foreign’s unit labour requirement in car production is 75, while in TV production it is 15. i. Suppose that the number of workers increases from 400 to 800 in Home. Find the new equilibrium relative price. What can you say about the efficiency of world production and the gains from trade between Home and Foreign in this case? j. Suppose that Home has now 800 workers, but they are only half as productive in both industries as we have been assuming. Consider Foreign to have the initial 450 workers only and the same productivity in both industries. Construct the world relative supply curve and determine the equilibrium relative price. How do the gains from trade compare with those in the case described in problem h.
Suppose there are two countries Peru and Japan that produces 7,523 units ofFood 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 5,000. d) Which country has the comparative advantage in food? In fuel? Explain. e) Which good(s) should each country specialized in?
Home has 1,200 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas.The unit labor requirement in apple production is 3, while in banana production it is 2. Foreign has a labor force of 800. Foreign's unit labor requirement in apple production is 5, while in banana production it is 1. 1. After trade, which price would be possible? 2 or 6? 2 Describe the pattern of trade. ? 3 Using the price you have chosen in question 3, show that both Home and Foreign'gain from trade ?
Consider two countries, Home and Foreign and two goods appples and bananas. In the Home country the unit labour requiremrents for apples and bananas are repectively 3 and 2. In the Foreign country the unit labour requirements for apples and bananas are 5 and 1 respectively. The Home country has a labour force of 1200 and the Foreign country has a labour force of 800. Graph the Production Possiblity Frontiers for each of the two countries. What are the prices of apples in terms of bananas in both countries in the absence of trade? Why? Construct the world relative supply function. Suppose that the world relative demand takes the following form: demand for ap- ples/demand for bananas = banana price/apple price. Draw the world relative de- mand curve superimposed on the world relative supply curve. What is the equilibrium relative price of apples under free trade? Describe the pattern of trade. Show that each of the two countries gain from trade. Suppose that instead of 1200…
Suppose country A and B have a labour force of 1 and produce hops and barley using only labour. Country A's unit labour cost are 0.5 for hops and 0.5 for barley, country B's 0.2 for hops and 0.4 for barley. Suppose that both are needed to brew beer in equal quantitiy, so that both national and international demand has the property that equal amounts of barley and hops are demanded. How much more beer (as a percentage) will be brewed under international trade than in autarky? Please enter the percentage rounded to a whole number (up or down is both acceptable) without the percentage sign.
Assume that Germany has 1200 units of labor available and it can produce two goods: apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 3, while in banana production it is 2. France has a labor force of 800. France’s unit labor requirement in apple production is 5, while in banana production it is 1. Suppose that Germany does not specialize in the production of the commodity in which it has a comparative advantage but it opens up for trade at the autarky production level. Compare the welfare of the country with the case when country specializes.
Home has 1,200 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 3, while in banana production it is 2. There is now also another country, Foreign, with a labor force of 800. Foreign’s unit labor requirement in apple production is 5, while in banana production it is 1. Graph Foreign’s production possibility frontier. Construct the world relative supply curve.
