International Production You have two factories that produce identical products (lets say plastic forks). The plants and equipment are fullydepreciated and there are no fixed costs. Note, this is a competitive market. As a result, your cost basis in the USA is TC usa = 16Y usa^2your cost basis in CHINA is TC china = 2Y china^2The demand for plastic forks is Y=72Note, the production then becomes Y = Y usa + Y china = 72 a. With no restrictions (competitive markets exist) how many plastic forks will the USA produce? b. How much would China need to lower their cost to produce all of the 72 plastic forks? c. How much of a subsidy would the firm need to produce all 72 plastic forks in the USA, given the original TC functions?

The future of Trinidad and Tobago cocoa industry- August 5th. 2020 [adapted from the Trinidad and Tobago Express newspaper] The announcement last Wednesday of the launch of Angostura's new cocoa Bitters is a good example of the future of the sector as a whole in Trinidad and Tobago: a dynamic bringing together of the history and heritage of the cocoa sector in T&T blended into a distinctive bottle. It is a very exciting project that should act as an ambassador for promoting Trinitario globally. There is an opportunity in finding unique products, working with unique brands and creating a unique experience. In short, getting our cocoa to be used in different places and in different ways. That could be bitters or it could be a range of culinary applications and distinctive value-added products like frozen desserts, in coffee houses and ice creams. Everyone makes a chocolate bar. We in T&T can do so much more than that. Indeed, Trinidad & Tobago Fine Cocoa Company (TTFCC) is mentioned as…

Question: Comparative statics in the steady-state: draw a new version of the graph from the previous question. Using this graph, explain what happens when the population growth rate increases from n1 to n2. In particular, do the following: (a) Draw the effect of this change on the functions in the graph. (b) What does an increase in n represent? (c) State the effect on steady-state capital per capita and steady-state output per capita - do these quantities increase or decrease Previous question and answer : Question: Graphing the steady-state: reorganize the equilibrium law of motion into two functions, a linear function and a concave function, whose point of intersection defines the steady-state quantity of capital per capita. Name these two functions g1 (k) for the linear function and g2 (k) for the concave function. Circle the expression for these two functions. Graph the two functions of capital per capita derived in the previous step, with the function value on the y-axis and…
