Do you think the Heckscher-Ohlin model sufficiently explains trade between countries? Explain why you think yes, or no
In the Heckscher-Ohlin model, suppose the two factors of production are: high-skilled labor (H) and regular labor (L). The two sectors are manufacturing and business services. Manufacturing uses regular labor more intensively, and business services uses high-skilled labor more intensively. The two countries are the U.S. and China, and the U.S. has a comparative advantage in business services. a. Illustrate the effect of opening up to trade on the U.S. with the PPF and indifference curve diagram. Make sure you clearly label everything. What happens to the relative price of business services in the U.S.? Show clearly the gains from trade. b. What happens to the relative wage of high-skilled labor? Does inequality (the skill premium) increase? Show all work and explain. 2. Evidence for or against Heckscher-Ohlin model Leontieff Paradox i. Briefly describe the paradoxii.We discussed several explanations for the paradoxical result in class. Briefly describe two explanations. Inequality…
Sometimes the exports of developing nations are concentrated in only one or a few primary products. For example, according to World Bank data, coffee constitutes almost 90% of Burundi’s total exports. Therefore, changes in demand or supply of coffee can have significant effects on the health of Burundi’s economy. The current world price of coffee is $5.00 per pound, but there is uncertainty about the shape of the demand and supply curves. The following graphs (scenario A and scenario B) show two possibilities for demand and supply in the market for coffee. Suppose that favorable growing conditions cause an increase in the global supply of coffee. On the following graph, shift the demand or supply curve of scenario A to show what happens in the market for coffee as a result of this event. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it…

Why does the United States not have an absolute in coffee? Which country is leading in producing coffee for the United States?
An examination of the Ricardian model of comparative advantage yields the clear result that trade is (potentially) beneficial for each of the two trading partners since it allows for an expanded consumption choice for each. However, for the world as a whole the expansion of production of one product must involve a decrease in the availability of the other, so that it is not clear that trade is better for the world as a whole as compared to an initial situation of non-trade (but efficient production in each country ?
Please answer for Question B Background: Country A is a relatively “rich” (developed) country, while country B is a relatively “poor” developing country. The model we will be using for trade is a simple supply and demand diagram where any amount can be bought or sold at the world price. If the world price is above the 'no trade' (autarky) price, there are exports, and if it is below there are imports. Both countries are small, so their actions do NOT have an impact on the world price. Question A: Suppose the demand in the poor country is P=100- 9Q and supply is P=Q. Suppose the supply in the poor country is different from the one in country A only because it faces less strict environmental regulations. That is, in country B it costs firms Q to produce Q units, whereas it costs 2Q in country A to produce quantity Q. Draw country B’s demand and supply diagram in 'autarky' with the standard axes (P vertical, Q horizontal) and then work out the equilibrium. How large is welfare under…
Suppose we extend the circular flow model to add imports and exports. Copy the circular flow diagram onto a sheet of paper and then add a foreign county as a third agent. Draw a rough sketch of the flows of imports, exports, and the payment for each on your diagram.
The graph below shows the short-run production possibilities frontier for a hypothetical country whose currency is the U.S. dollar. This country chooses to produce the mix of capital and consumer goods indicated by point A. This leads to a long-run expansion of the production possibilities frontier, with a 20% increase in production capacity for both consumer and capital goods.Use the curved-line tool to draw the new production possibilities frontier. Point A happens to coincide with the middle control point of the short-term curve; use that to help you decide where the curved-line tool's middle control point of the long-term curve should go (do not use the point tool to plot a point).
From the trade model, we found that in most cases, trade creates value. Where do we see that conclusion in the Supply and Demand model? You should be able to answer this in a few sentences.
Use the below to construct a 3000-words essay. Assume that Trinbago is a small country that produces wine and motor vehicles, where motor vehicles are capital-intensive. Trinbago is also capital intensive, and the standard Heckscher -Ohlin (H-O) assumptions hold. The other country in the model is Vincyland. Questions: Give an extensive background on the Heckscher-Ohlin Trade model and then answer the following questions. (a) Based on the H-O assumptions, which good should Vincyland export, and why? (b) What trade pattern would occur if the Leontief Paradox holds? Which two (2) explanations of the Leontief Paradox most strongly support the H-O theory? Give the reasons. (c) In autarky, according to Ohlin, how does Trinbago’s relative price of labor compare to Vincyland’s? (d) Show the necessary graphs to fully explain all requested effects. Ensure to label graphs and give brief explanations. (e) Given that Vincyland is a small country, examine the partial equilibrium welfare…
Who are the winners and losers of the free trade between two countries? Can free trade between the two countries make consumers of both countries better off? In answering this question, consider discussing: How are you and your household connected to the global economy? Which imported goods and services do you buy? Are your consumption patterns based on comparative advantage? How do US trade patterns, based on comparative advantage, contribute to income inequality in the US, according to the Heckscher-Ohlin model? How has trade affected international income inequality? What were some recent tariffs? Who really pays the cost of tariffs?
