  2. For California to grow one grape, it must give up _1_ apple.
  3. The absolute advantage in apple production is had by: Washington

  5. The comparative advantage in apple production is had by: Washington
  6. The comparative advantage in grape production is had by: California
  7. The difference in apples each state must sacrifice to grow a bushel of grapes is 25__
  8. The square route of this difference equals _5_ apples for each grape- and this will be our terms of trade- though there are other ways to calculate terms of trade.

Before trade Wash grows 1 grape and 26 apples for every two acres.

Before trade Cal grows 20 grapes and 20 apples for every two acres.

  1. Now with trade Cal grows 40 grapes for every two acres and sends __ grapes in return for the 25 apples.
  2. Finally Wash ends up with ___ apples and ___ grapes versus 26 apple and 1 grape, which gives a trade gain of ___ apples and ___ grapes.
