The question is based on 'pure exchange economy' in general equilibrium. Please answer all the three questions. Please do not reject it. The following information is the starting point for Q16 – 20. Consider an exchange economywith two agents, 1 and 2, and two goods, X and Y. Agent l's endowment is (0,10) andagent 2 's endowment is (11,0) . Agent 1 strictly prefers bundle (a, b) to bundle (c, d) if,either a > c, or a = c and b > d. Agent 2 strictly prefers bundle (a, b) to bundle (c, d) ifmin{a, b} > min{c, d}. For both agents, we say that bundle (a, b) is indifferent to bundle(c, d) if, neither (a, b), nor (c, d), is strictly preferred to the other.16. This exchange economy hasDSE 2014IndexPage 120Amit Goyalwww.econschool.inamit@econschool.inA. one competitive equilibrium allocationB. two competitive equilibrium allocationsC. an infinite number of competitive equilibrium allocationsD. no competitive equilibrium allocations 17. Which of the following changes makes (pr, Py) = (1,0) a competitive equilibrium pricevector?A. agent 2's endowment changes to (9,0)B. agent 2's endowment changes to (10,0)C. agent l's endowment changes to (0, 12)D. none of the above18. Suppose only agent 2's preferences are changed. The changed preferences of agent 2'sbecome identical to those of agent 1. Then,A. there is no equilibrium price ratioB. both of the following are trueC. Pa/Py = 0 is an equilibrium price ratioD. Py/Pa = 0 is an equilibrium price ratio

On 24 February 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin gave orders for Russian troops to invade Ukraine. This invasion of Ukraine followed statements by the Russian government that Ukrainian soldiers had destroyed a Russian Security border facility and attempted to enter Russian territory illegally; accusations which Ukrainian officials strongly denied. The invasion of Ukraine has gathered worldwide attention, and has been strongly denounced by citizens, governments and international organisations. In an attempt to try and resolve the conflict, President Putin of Russia and President Zelenskyy of Ukraine have agreed to engage with one another surrounding ways of coming to a peaceful agreement between the two sides. Another round of peace negotiations were scheduled to take place on 16 March 2022. Imagine that in these negotiations, President Zeleskyy and President Putin have two strategies available to them: either they can be firm about their position and stand their ground regarding…

This is the general instructions given. Use graphical analysis and detailed economic reasoning to interpret empirical evidence and/or to show your statements following the methods and contents of the lectures about the Factor specific model. Complete the analysis with appropriate assumptions if needed and proofs of theoretical propositions. Graphical analysis is requires to support the answer. In the (Standard) Specific Factors Model of a small open economy that initially exports good X, analyse the effects of a fall in the price of good Y, holding the price of good X constant on outputs of the goods, X and Y, the real wage of labor, the real rental price of capital in the X industry, and the quantity of X exported.
Question 10 If country A is relatively land-abundant and country B is relatively labor-abundant, the Heckscher- Ohlin theory predicts that country A will export textiles (a relatively labor-intensive good) and country B will export corn (a relatively land-intensive good). O True STC False
Problem 3: Production-exchange economy Consider an economy with two consumers, A and B, two goods, X and Y, two factors of production, labor and capital, and two firms: firm X uses labor and capital to produce good X and firm Y uses labor and capital to produce good Y. Consumer A has no initial endowments of labor or capital but owns both of the firms. Consumer B has an initial endowment of labor Is =L>0 and an initial endowment of capital kg = K = L, but does not own any share of the firms. Both consumers i = A, B have preferences over consumption bundles can be represented by the Cobb-Douglas utility function where r; is the quantity of good X for consumer i, y; is the quantity of good Y for consumer i, and a e (0, 1) is a preference parameter. Firm X produces the output good X with a technology that can be de- scribed by the following production function: fx(lx, kx) = lx + kx, where lx is the quantity of labor and kx is the quantity of capital. Firm Y produces the output good Y with…
