Linear algebra: I just want part d and e solution please correctly and handwritten 2. Opening the modelIn Session 2 you explored a simple Closed Leontief Exchange Model with five in-terdependent industries. In the closed exchange model no goods or services enteror leave a national economy. However, most nations import and export goods. Forthis problem you will develop an open exchange model for the newly formed nation,NationLand, then generalize the model to an economy with n sectors.(a) Suppose NationLand has 5 sectors: agriculture (A), energy (N), real estate(R), education (E), and entertainment (T). The following table represents thenumber of units of goods from other sectors used to produce one unit with agiven sector.

Write a system of equations that defines the number ofunits each sector should produce to satisfy both internal and external demand(total units).(b) Rewrite your system of equations in the form M = d where M is a matrix ofcoefficients. What do and d represent in this model?2(c) Does the system have a solution? In other words, is there a set of productionlevels that would satisfy both internal and external demand? Is this solutionunique?(d) [challenge] Adjust the parameters in the Demand Table to find levels thatlead to (i) infinitely many solutions, and (ii) no solution. Explain your choice,verifying that your suggestions are realistic.(e) [challenge] Now suppose NationLand has n sectors. Let x; represent the num-ber of units produced by the i-th sector. Assume that Sector j uses aij unitsfrom Sector i to produce one unit. Let d; be the external demand for goodsfrom Sector i.i. Write a system of equations that models internal and external demand inthis n sector system. Rewrite your system of equations in the form Ma = dwhere M is a matrix of coefficients.ii. Let A = [aij] be the matrix whose entries are the internal production re-quirements. Express M in terms of A.iii. Find a condition you can use to quickly determine whether the model hasa unique solution.iv. Derive a formula for the vector of x; in terms of A and the demand vectord that holds when the system has a unique solution.

An input-output model is given by Leontief. This model refers that an economy is in equilibrium…

2. Opening the model In Session 2 you explored a simple Closed Leontief Exchange Model with five in- terdependent industries. In the closed exchange model no goods or services enter or leave a national economy. However, most nations import and export goods. For this problem you will develop an open exchange model for the newly formed nation, NationLand, then generalize the model to an economy with n sectors. (a) Suppose NationLand has 5 sectors: agriculture (A), energy (N), real estate (R), education (E), and entertainment (T). The following table represents the number of units of goods from other sectors used to produce one unit with a given sector. The table also lists the demand for each good from NationLand's trading partners.

4. Assume a two-country two-good two-input model. Let the countries in the model be Vietnam andMyanmar and the goods be shirts and natural gas. The two factors of production are labor and land.Further, Vietnam is labor-abundant and shirts production is labor-intensive. Suppose, in the absenceof trade, Vietnam operates at a point on its production-possibility curve where it produces andconsumes 20 units of shirts and 25 units of natural gas. Once it engages in free trade, the internationalprice of one unit of natural gas is .8 units of a shirt. In response to the opening of trade, Vietnammoves along its production-possibility curve to a new point where it produces 100 units of shirts and10 units of natural gas. Assume that with free trade, Vietnam chooses to consume 52 units of shirtsand chooses to trade all of its remaining surplus of shirts.a. Demonstrate the gains to trade for Vietnam.
9. Answer ALL parts of this question. Consider the standard trade model with two goods and two factors, labour and capital. (a) Suppose that a country experiences an increase in its labour force. Assume thatgood X is labour intensive and good Y is capital intensive. How would theproduction possibility frontier change as a result? Illustrate this with a simplediagram. (b) What does it mean for the “terms of trade” to improve and why might this matter interms of welfare? (c) Consider two countries: Home and Foreign. Each country produces two goods,cloth (C) and food (F). Assume Home is an exporter of cloth. Now suppose Homeimposes a 20 percent tariff on the value of food imports. What will be the effect ofthe food tariff on the relative price of cloth and terms of trade? Illustrate youranswer with a relevant diagram. You may assume that Home is large enough toaffect the world market.
19. If production of specific goods exhibit the opportunity for economies of scale (Oil for example), then: A. the countries producing these goods gain from trade while other countries are worse off. B. the countries producing these goods lose from trade while other countries are better off. C. all countries gain from trade but those not producing the goods with economies of scale gain more. D. all countries gain from trade but those producing the goods with economies of scale gain more.

Z and S.A are trading partners. Both produce metal ores (including lithium) and delivery trucks. Now suppose that if Zimbabwe uses all of its resources, it can produce 50,000 tons of metal ores or 100,000 delivery trucks (trading off at a constant rate). Suppose that if South Africa uses all of its resources, it can produce 20,000 tons of metal ores or 80,000 delivery trucks (trading off at a constant rate). What is the direction of the trade (who exports what to whom)? Be sure to give the opportunity costs of production of both goods for both countries.
5) Suppose that the United States has an absolute advantage over Mexico in producing both agriculturaland manufactured goods. In the U. S., the opportunity cost of 1 unit of agricultural output is 2 units ofmanufactured goods. In Mexico, the opportunity cost of 1 unit of agricultural output is 1.5 units ofmanufactured goods. Total production in the U. S. and Mexico will be maximized ifa. the U. S. specializes in both types of outputb. Mexico specializes in both types of outputc. the U. S. specializes in agricultural goods and Mexico specializes in manufacturedgoodsd. the U. S. specializes in manufactured goods and Mexico specializes in agriculturalgoodse. each country achieves self-sufficiency
5. Suppose that a small country has a production possibility frontier (with two goods X and Y) displaying increasing opportunity costs. Suppose further that trade is beneficial and in equilibrium with trade, the country imports good X and exports good Y. Discuss how growth of labour used more intensively in the import good (X) affects the country’s welfare. Illustrate your answer with the country’s PPF diagram which shows the production and consumption equilibrium outcomes before and after growth.
2. American and Japanese workers can each produce 4 cars a year. An American worker can produce 10 tons of grain a year, whereas a Japanese worker can produce 5 tons of grain a year. To keep things simple, assume that each country has 100 million workers. Which country has a comparative advantage in producing cars? In producing grain? Without trade, half of each country’s workers produce cars and half produce grain. What quantities of cars and grain does each country produce? Starting from a position without trade, give an example in which trade makes each country better off.
