Use the figure below and the marginal product of labour concept to explain answer.P F Q1 Suppose that the wage ratio of skilled labor v.s. unskilled labor, wH/wL, is lower at home than at the foreign country and that production involves four stages/tasks, namely, R&D, marketing, components, and assembly ordered from the most skill intensive to the least skill intensive. Now consider a decrease in trade costs for shipping components and final goods between the two countries. Use a relative skilled-labor demand- and supply-curve graph to show the effect of lower trade costs on home country’s wH/w Use another relative skilled-labor demand- and supply-curve graph to show the effect of lower trade costs on foreign country’s wH/w Your answer:
- Explain the theory of factor mobility. Consider this theory, and create a trade agreement between two to four countries that does not already exist. Explain why this agreement would be beneficial to each country and how the theory of factor mobility connects to this trade agreement.The debate focuses on the job outsourcing in the steel-rod industry. A congresswoman from a state with several steel-rod factories explains that it is necessary to impose restrictions against job outsourcing to protect workers in the domestic steel-rod industry. The congresswoman claims that, without protection against job outsourcing, U.S. companies in the steel-rod industry have incentives to outsource their jobs to developing countries where the labor is cheaper. This would leave many U.S. workers in the steel-rod industry unemployed. Which of the following justifications is the congresswoman using to argue for the trade restriction on steel rods? Infant industry argument Antidumping argument Foreign export subsidies argument Low foreign wages argument National defense argumentThe graphs below show demand for labor in two countries, A and B, and several vertical labor supply curves. Use these diagrams to answer the question about the effects of migration from one country to the other in search of a higher wage. Let the amount of migration (change in labor supply) be equal to the (identical) horizontal distance between the supply curves in both graphs. Country B Country A Se SB WB SA SA WA d PB h b a DA LB LA What is the effect of this migration on the welfare of workers who migrate? They gain area g They gain area (g+h+e) They gain area (a+b+c).

Let’s examine if this is actually the case. The following table presents information on labor productivity in computer component production and call center services in Canada and Pakistan. Assume that Canada has an absolute advantage in both. To complete the following table, choose the number of calls that would be most plausible and consistent with the reality of outsourcing services to Pakistan, and indicate the good in which each country has a comparative advantage. Production per Employee Production per Employee Computer Components Call Center Services Country (Units per hour) (Phone calls per hour) Comparative Advantage Canada 18 9 _____ (Call Center Services / Computer Components Production)…
