Consider two neighboring island countries called Euphoria and Bellissima. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce rye, jeans, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of rye or jeans that can be produced using 1 hour of labor. Country Rye Jeans (Bushels per hour of labor) (Pairs per hour of labor) Euphoria 4 16 Bellissima 6 12   Initially, suppose Bellissima uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce rye and 3 million hours per week to produce jeans, while Euphoria uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce rye and 1 million hours per week to produce jeans. Consequently, Euphoria produces 12 million bushels of rye and 16 million pairs of jeans, and Bellissima produces 6 million bushels of rye and 36 million pairs of jeans. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of rye and jeans it produces.   Euphoria's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of rye is  --  of jeans, and Bellissima's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of rye is  --  of jeans. Therefore, --   has a comparative advantage in the production of rye, and  -- has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans.   Suppose that each country completely specializes in the production of the good in which it has a comparative advantage, producing only that good. In this case, the country that produces rye will produce -- million bushels per week, and the country that produces jeans will produce -- million pairs per week.   In the following table, enter each country's production decision on the third row of the table (marked “Production”). Suppose the country that produces rye trades 14 million bushels of rye to the other country in exchange for 42 million pairs of jeans.   In the following table, select the amount of each good that each country exports and imports in the boxes across the row marked “Trade Action,” and enter each country's final consumption of each good on the line marked “Consumption.”   When the two countries did not specialize, the total production of rye was 18 million bushels per week, and the total production of jeans was 52 million pairs per week. Because of specialization, the total production of rye has increased by -- million bushels per week, and the total production of jeans has increased by -- million pairs per week.   Because the two countries produce more rye and more jeans under specialization, each country is able to gain from trade. Calculate the gains from trade—that is, the amount by which each country has increased its consumption of each good relative to the first row of the table. In the following table, enter this difference in the boxes across the last row (marked “Increase in Consumption”).

Suppose there exist two imaginary countries, Sequoia and Denall. Their labor forces are each capable of supplying four million hours per week that can be used to produce almonds, shorts, or some combination of the two. The following table shows the amount of almonds or shorts that can be produced by one hour of labor. Almonds Country (Pounds per hour of labor) Sequoia Denall Suppose that initially Denall uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce almonds and 3 million hours per week to produce shorts, while Sequoia uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce almonds and 1 million hours per week to produce shorts. As a result, Sequola produces 12 million pounds of almonds and 16 million pairs of shorts, and Denall produces 6 million pounds of almonds and 36 million pairs of shorts. Assume there are no other countries willing to engage in trade, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of almonds and shorts it produces.…

Suppose there exist two imaginary countries, Everglades and Denali. Their labor forces are each capable of supplying four million hours per day that can be used to produce shorts, almonds, or some combination of the two. The following table shows the amount of shorts or almonds that can be produced by one hour of labor. Country Shorts Almonds (Pairs per hour of labor) (Pounds per hour of labor) Everglades 4 16 Denali 6 12   Suppose that initially Denali uses 1 million hours of labor per day to produce shorts and 3 million hours per day to produce almonds, while Everglades uses 3 million hours of labor per day to produce shorts and 1 million hours per day to produce almonds. As a result, Everglades produces 12 million pairs of shorts and 16 million pounds of almonds, and Denali produces 6 million pairs of shorts and 36 million pounds of almonds. Assume there are no other countries willing to engage in trade, so, in the absence of trade between these two…

Ron can either workout or make sushi rolls. It takes him 40 minutes to finish 1 workout and 20 minutes to make 1 sushi roll. If he has 120 minutes to do these two activities, what is the equation of the production possibility frontier (PPF) that describes the tradeoff between these two activities? (Assume workouts are on the x axis and sushi rolls are on the y axis) A y=6-2x B y=3-0.5x C y=3-2x D y=6-0.5x

Suppose two countries, France and Germany, use only capital and labor for production. Factor endowments of the nations are presented in the table below. Capital | Labor France 2200 800 Germany 880 220 a. Which country is labor-abundant? Which country is capital-abundant? b. Assume that both countries produce two goods, cars and wine. If cars are capital-intensive and wines are labor-intensive, which country should specialize in the production of cars? Which country should specialize in the production of wines? Explain why?

Consider two neighboring island countries called Bellissima and Felicidad. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce corn, jeans, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of corn or jeans that can be produced using 1 hour of labor. Country Corn Jeans (Bushels per hour of labor) (Pairs per hour of labor) Bellissima 8 16 Felicidad 5 20   Initially, suppose Bellissima uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce corn and 3 million hours per week to produce jeans, while Felicidad uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce corn and 1 million hours per week to produce jeans. Consequently, Bellissima produces 8 million bushels of corn and 48 million pairs of jeans, and Felicidad produces 15 million bushels of corn and 20 million pairs of jeans. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount…
