(2) Produces sugar at a lower opportunity cost than Uganda. (3) Has the absolute advantage in sugar production. (4) Specialises in sugar production.The United States has an absolute advantage in producing sugar over all of the other sugar producing countries. Does this fact mean that we should not import any sugar from the other countries?Refer to Table 19.1. Mexico has Group of answer choices a comparative advantage but not an absolute advantage in orange production. an absolute advantage and a comparative advantage in orange production. a comparative advantage but not an absolute advantage in banana production. an absolute advantage and a comparative advantage in banana production.
- 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. (g) If the terms of trade is 2 to 1 in favour of the country with the comparative advantage in food. Determine the combination of the two goods that each country will consume after trade if the country with the comparative advantage in fuel imports 4000 units of food. Label this point B and B* respectively. h) Who gains from trade? Who loses? What is the impact if any on the world? (i) What should the terms of trade be to make trade beneficial for BOTH Japan and Peru? Explain.Refer to Table 19.1. Guatemala has Group of answer choices a comparative advantage in orange production. an absolute advantage in orange production. a comparative advantage in banana production. an absolute advantage in banana production.Country A can produce 20 units of wheat or 10 units of corn, while Country B can produce 15 units of wheat or 5 units of corn. Which country has the comparative advantage in producing wheat?
- Freedonia has a comparative advantage in the production of (grain, tea, neither grain nor tea, both grain and tea), while Desonia has a comparative advantage in the production of (grain, tea, neither grain nor tea, both grain and tea). If each fully specializes that is, produces only the good for which each has a comparative advantage, the most the two countries can produce is ( )million pounds of grain and ( )million pounds of tea. As you did for Freedonia, use the green line (triangle symbol) to plot the trading possibilities line (TPL) for Desonia. Then place the black point (plus symbol) on the trading possibilities line to indicate Desonia’s consumption after specialization and trade. True or False: Without engaging in international trade, Freedonia and Desonia would not have been able to consume at the after-trade consumption bundles. (Hint: Base your answer to this question on the answers you previously entered on this page.) a) True b) FalseEvaluate the following statement: "Canada has an absolute advantage in growing wheat. Therefore, it must have a comparative advantage in growing wheat.Refer to Table 19.1. Guatemala should specialize in and export ________, and Mexico should specialize in and export ________.

- Labor productivity coefficients for the US and Brazil are given by the following table: Country Wheat per week Clothing per week Labor(Number of workers) United States 2 8 100 Brazil 1 2 120 Who has the comparative advantage in Wheat? In Clothing? Draw the production possibility frontier for the US. (Put Wheat on the Y-axis and Clothing on the X-axis) For Brazil (Put Wheat on the Y-axis and Clothing on the X-axis) Suppose each country decides to split its labor force equally on the production of each good. Locate the point on the PPF curve for each country that represents this allocation of labor. What’s their production and consumption combination # at this point?From an economic point of view, India and China are somewhat similar: Both are huge, low-wage countries, probably with similar patterns of comparative advantage, which until recently were relatively closed to international trade. China was the first to open up. Now that India is also opening up to world trade, how would you expect this to affect the welfare of China? Of the United States? (Hint: Think of adding a new economy identical to that of China to the world economy.) A. From China's perspective, the world relative supply curve will shift to the left. This shift will improve China's terms of trade. The U.S. purchases of Chinese exports will hurt the U.S. by decreasing the relative price of goods that the U.S. exports. B. From China's perspective, the world relative supply curve will shift to the right. This shift will worsen China's terms of trade. The U.S. purchase of Chinese exports will benefit the U.S. by increasing the relative price of goods that the U.S. exports. C. From…Assume that the comparative-cost ratios of two products-baby formula and tuna fish-are as follows in the nations of Canswicki and Tunata: Canswicki: 1 can baby formula = 3 cans tuna fish Tunata: 1 can baby formula = 5 cans tuna fish a.
