4. Suppose that there are drastic technological improvements in shoe production in Home such that shoe factories can operate almost completely with computer-aided machines. Consider the following data for the Home country: Computers: Sales revenue = PcQc = 100 Payments to labor = WLc = 50 Payments to capital = RKC = 50 Percentage increase in the price = APc/Pc = 0% Shoes: Sales revenue = PsQs = 100 Payments to labor = WLs =10 Payments to capital = RKC...
Thank you so much. Heckscher-Ohlin Model 2. There are two countries, Home and Foreign. There are two goods: beer (6) and corn (C), which are produced in both countries using capital (K) and labor (L). In both countries, it takes 2 units of labor and 1 unit of capital to make beer (a Lb = 2, akb = 1); and it takes 5 units of labor and 5 units of capital to make corn (ale = 5, ako = 5)....
Heckscher-Ohlin model Country A produces cellphone (C) and food (F) with capital and labor. Both sectors are perfect competitive. Capital (K) and labor (L) are not substitutable with each other. Thus, unit capital requirement and unit labor requirement are fixed. ??? = 3, ??? = 1, ??? = 2, ??? = 4, where ??? is the number of units of K-capital required to produce and unit of C-cellphone. a. Which sector is relatively capital intensive? Which sector is relatively labor...
Part II. The Specific-Factors Model 1. Assume under the Specific-Factors Model, home country export manufacturing goods to foreign country. Use the following information to answer the questions below: Manufacturing: Sales revenue Pm x Qm = 150 Payments to labor = W x Lm = 100 Payments to capital = Rkx K = 50 Sales revenue Pax Qa 150 Payments to labor W x La 50 Agriculture: Rt x T 100 Payments to land Holding the price of agriculture constant, suppose...
