A. 1/2 unit of B; good A
As producing
A- 2 hours
B- 4 hours
B=2A
Hence opportunity cost of A is B/2
That is 1/2 unit of B

Suppose a small country producing cars (C) and food (F) is closed to free trade. Its production possibilities frontier (PPF) reflects increasing costs (it’s bowed out). Finally, preferences in this country are such that consumers like both goods equally: U(DC , DF ) = D 1 2 CD 1 2 F . (a) Using graphs, show the autarky equilibrium in this country. Show both (i) a graph of the PPF and indifference curve, and (ii) a graph of relative demand...
Suppose television production requires 20 units of labor and 4 units of land. Rice requires 1 unit of labor and 4 units of land. If there is no trade, which good will be relatively cheaper in each country? If a free trade occurs, what will happen with relative prices of goods? If a free trade occurs, What will happen with the factors prices? Does this happen in the real world? Explain why yes or why not.
