1. Try to describe the global economic crisis on world trade and commodity prices because of the COVID and use the Stopler-Samuelson theorem to predict the effect on income distribution in Australia. It should be imagined Australia is a specific factor economy with 'mining' in Queensland and Western Australia on the one hand, and a sector included manufacturing, agriculture and services in the other states. Assume that there is mobile labour between these two sectors, that there is no unemployment, and that Australia is a price taker for its exports.

The UK can produce 20 units of Wine with 1 unit of productive resources and 10 units of cloth with 1 unit of productive resources. Using this information, please answer the questions below: 1.
