- determine the purchasing power of the country China for aconsumer good that they would buy from their Canadian trading partner. Also, calculate whatCanada’s purchasing power is with a country that they import from. See example below on Coca Colaand Mexico. Purchasing Power Example In the example of the picture, if a Canadian company operating in Mexico were to pay its Mexican employeesthe equivalent of $10/hour CAD (or 100 pesos/hour according to our fictional exchange rate), theMexican employee would actually enjoy greater purchasing power (the ability to acquire 20 colasversus only 10 colas) than his/her Canadian counterparts.Canada is both an importer and an exporter of cars. If Canada exports more cars than it imports and the price of cars rises, then ceteris paribus, Canada's terms of trade... Deteriorates because the gain in imports more than offsets the loss of exports. o b. Remains the same because the index of export prices rises by the same amount as the index of import prices. O c. Improves because the index of export prices rises and the index of import prices falls. o d. Improves because the index of export prices rises more than the index of import prices. Deteriorates because of the loss of exports that would result.1._______ The total value of a nation’s exports minus thetotal value of its imports over some period of time

Suppose that bicycles are made in the United States out of a combination of domestic and foreign parts. a. If a bike sells for $500 but requires $300 of imported parts, what is the domestic value added? b. If a 20 percent tariff is levied on bikes of the same quality and with the same features, how do the price and the domestic value added change? (Assume the United States cannot cause the world price to change.) c. What is the effective rate of protection? d. If in addition to the 20 percent tariff on the final good, a 20 percent tariff on imported parts is also levied, what is the effective rate of protection for U.S. bike manufacturers?If the US Government increased Tariffs on goods imported in the US from China, what would most likely happen O China would not respond, making US Net Export Spending rise and China's Net Export Spending drop: China would respond in kind, causing minimal change in either nation's Net Export Spending OChina would respond but to a lesser degree, making US Net Export Spending rise and China's Net Export Spending drop China would respond to a greater degree, making US Net Export Spending drop and China's Net Export Spending Rise

Suppose that the productivity growth in the United States accelerates, but it remains the same in Japan. The following graph shows the supply and demand for the Japanese yen in the United States before the change in productivity. The vertical axis is the exchange rate of the yen in terms of the dollar, and the horizontal axis is the quantity of yen. Show how the change in productivity affects the equilibrium exchange rate by shifting one or both of the curves on the graph. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. Supply Demand Supply Demand EXCHANGE RATE (Dollars per yer
