Sol:-
A) In Autarky,a nation can only achieve those points which lie on it's PPF curve or those points which lie inside it.
For Golikia,the points attainable are :
A and B
b) When both nations decides to trade,the new world ppf curve will cover the following grey points under the curve which will become attainabe now-
Points X,Y and Z
c) When both nations engage in trade and desire the sasme post trade consumption bundle then Golikia will export video game consoles as it has a lower opportunity cost in production of video game consoles.

Please answer the problem bellow: Visualizing the factor-endowment theory Consider the two hypothetical nations of Greenburg and Ferville. Suppose they both produce only two goods, robot vacuum cleaners and pogo sticks. Each country faces a trade-off when producing the two goods. The following graph displays the respective production possibilities frontiers (PPF) for Greenburg and Ferville.

These questions are about international trade. I want to know the answers. 5 Heckscher-Ohlin Model. Suppose the production of cloth is labour intensive and the production of food is land intensive and suppose the United States (US) is labour abundant and Canada is land abundant. (a) Show how the US production possibility frontier (PPF) differs from the Canadian PPF. Briefly explain. (Use the general version of the PPF's) (b) Which country will have the lower price of cloth Pc relative...
3. Heckscher-Ohlin theory. Assume there are two nations (1 and 2), two goods (X and Y), two factors of production (L and K). Commodity X is labor intensive, commodity Y is capital intensive. All assumptions are made following the standard H-O theory 3.1 Suppose nation 1 is L-abundant, and nation 2 is K-abundant. Please graph the production possibility frontiers of both nations. 3.2. What is the no-trade equilibrium in both nations? Please show on the graph and explain. 3.3. What...
Consider the two fictional nations of Sapello and Pojoaque. Your job is to analyze the potential for trade between the two nations. Throughout this analysis all 12 assumptions from the book will hold, unless specifically stated otherwise. Further assume that both nations are part of a monetary union and use the same currency, corporals ©. This means we do not need to consider an exchange rate. 1. (4 points) 1.a. Given the table below identify the absolute and comparative advantages...

When a country specializes in the production of a good, this means that it can produce this good at a lower opportunity cost than its trading partner. Because of this comparative advantage, both countries benefit when they specialize and trade with each other. The following graphs show the production possibilities frontiers (PPFs) for Candonia and Lamponia. Both countries produce lemons and tea, each initially (i.e., before specialization and trade) producing 6 million pounds of lemons and 3 million pounds of...
