Opportunity Costs, Comparative Advantage, & Benefits of Trade
India: USA:
tee shirts: 20 30
cell phones: 5 15
6. List one possible “Price” for cell phone, in terms of tee shirts traded, that would make BOTH India & USA better off: _____
1) Below, draw the two “Production Possibilities Curve” - one for each country, India and USA! Label the axes of the Graphs. Show amounts(maximum Quantities produced of cell phones & tee shirts) along the axes of both graphs.
2) Point to (or, circle) the good each country will sell (specialize at) on that country's PPC graph - on the axis where the max. quantity of that good is shown. 3) Show they both can move to a position or point OUTSIDE THEIR OWN curveat the “Price” given in question above.
[Draw your 2 graphs neatly and legibly.

4. Specialization and tradeWhen a country has a comparative advantage in the production of a good, it means that it can produce this good at a lower opportunity cost than its trading partner. Then the country will specialize in the production of this good and trade it for other goods.The following graphs show the production possibilities frontiers (PPFs) for Freedonia and Desonia. Both countries produce grain and sugar, each initially (i.e., before specialization and trade) producing 12 million pounds of...
