3. England and Scotland both produce sweaters and scones. Suppose that an English worker can produce 50 scones per hour or 1 sweater per hour. Suppose that a Scottish worker can produce 40 scones per hour or 2 sweaters per hour. a) Which country has the absolute advantage in the production of each good? Which country has the comparative advantage? b) If England and Scotland decide to trade, which commodity will Scotland trade to England? Explain. c) If a Scottish worker could produce only one sweater per hour, would Scotland still gain from trade? Would England still gain from trade? Explain.

Suppose that France and Germany both produce wine and cheese. The table below shows combinations of the goods that each country can produce in a day. France Germany Wine (Bottles) Cheese (Pounds) 16 Wine (Bottles) Cheese (Pounds) 12 8. 4. 25 20 15 2 3 3 4 10 4 Who has the comparative advantage in producing wine and who has the comparative advantage in producing cheese? O A. France has a comparative advantage producing wine and Germany has a comparative advantage producing cheese. O B. France has a comparative advantage producing wine and cheese. OC. Germany has a comparative advantage producing wine and cheese. -OD. Neither has a comparative advantage producing wine or cheese. OE. France has a comparative advantage producing cheese and Germany has a comparative advantage producing wine. Suppose that France is currently producing 1 bottle of wine and 12 pounds of cheese and Germany is currently producing 3 bottles of wine and 10 pounds of cheese. Then, assume instead that France and…

England and Scotland both produce scones and sweaters.  Suppose that an English works can produce 50 scones per hour or 1 sweater per hour.  Suppose that a Scottish worker can produce 40 scones per hour or 2 sweaters per hour. a.  Which country has the absolute advantage in the production of each good?  Which country has the comparative advantage? b. If England and Scotland decide to trade, which commodity will Scotland trade to England?  Explain. c.  If a Scottish worker could produce only 1 sweater per hour, would Scotland still gain from trade? Would England still gain from trade? Explain.

Suppose the United States and Mexico both produce hamburgers and tacos. The combinations of the two goods that each country can produce in one day are presented in the table below. United States Mexico Hamburgers (in tons) Tacos (in tons) Hamburgers (in tons) Tacos (in tons) 162 135 90 108 18 90 180 54 36 45 270 54 Which country has an absolute advantage in producing tacos? The United States Which country has a comparative advantage in producing tacos? Mexico Suppose the United States is currently producing 180 tons of hamburgers and 54 tons of tacos and Mexico is currently producing 36 tons of hamburgers and 45 tons of tacos. If the United States and Mexico each specialize in producing only one good (the good for which each has a comparative advantage), then a total of additional ton(s) of hamburgers can be produced for the two countries combined (enter a numeric response using an integer)

Wheat 8 Paul 10 Corn Wheat 6 4 Cliff Refer to Figure 3-1. What do the two producers have a comparative advantage in? Corn Paul has a comparative advantage in both wheat and corn. Paul has a comparative advantage in wheat, and Cliff has a comparative advantage in corn. Cliff has a comparative advantage in wheat, and Paul has a comparative advantage in corn. Cliff has a comparative advantage in both wheat and corn.

Suppose that France and Italy both produce wine and cheese. France's opportunity cost of producing a case of cheese is 5 barrels of wine, while Italy's opportunity cost of producing a case of cheese is 10 barrels of wine. By comparing the opportunity cost of producing cheese in the two countries, you can tell that comparative advantage in the production of cheese and has a comparative advantage in the production of wine. Suppose that France and Italy consider trading cheese and wine. France can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than of wine for each case of cheese it exports to Italy. Similarly, Italy can gain from trade as long as it receives of cheese for each barrel of wine it exports to France. more than Based on your answer to the last question, a price ratio between benefit both countries. has a barrels of wine per case of cheese will

I don't understand the second part of this homework. If Frankie and Johnny completely specialize according to comparative advantage, what will happen to the amount of eggs and milk? I have the opportunity cost calculated to understand who should do what in this case. But what will I do to that number?
