Suppose the fictional country of Biscayne produces two types of goods: agricultural and capital. The following diagram shows its current production possibilities frontier for sorghum, an agricultural good, and electric scooters, a capital good. Drag the production possibilities frontier (PPF) on the graph to show the effects of a time-saving innovation in the manufacturing of electric scooters. Note: Select either end of the curve on the graph to make the endpoints appear. Then drag one or both endpoints to the desired position. Points will snap into position, so if you try to move a point and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. 180 150 ELECTRIC SCOOTERS (Thousands) 30 30 90 90 120 30 60 90 PPF 120 150 180 PPF ?

- The graph to the right depicts an economy, Home, that produces both flowers and soybeans. Flowers are the labor intensive good and soybeans are the land intensive good. Home presently exports flowers. The graph also indicates Home's optimal point of production, X. Suppose that Home has acquired more land in which it can now produce 12 units of soybeans if all land were devoted toward its production. Using the three-point curved line drawing tool, draw the new production possibilities frontier that indicates this biased growth of land in Home. Properly label this curve. Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required object. The growth biased toward land causes OA. export-biased growth. O B. a decrease in the relative price of flowers. OC. a rightward shift of the relative supply curve.

- Supermarché Jean Claude has decided to manufacture its own brand of non-alcoholic beverages, called NAB, and chocolate bars, called S-JC. A certain amount of money has been allocated to the production of these two products. Jean Claude believes in the old saying that a picture is worth a thousand words, and once again, he has called on you. This time, he wants to see diagrams that illustrate the effects of each of the following events on the production possibilities for NABS and S-JCs so he can visualize the situation. (a) A new and more efficient method of producing non-alcoholic beverages is discovered. (b) The demand for both non-alcoholic beverages and chocolate bars increases. (c) More workers are hired to produce S-JCs. (d) Resources are transferred from S-JC production to NAB production. (e) All workers are trained so that the quality of their labour services improves. Instructions Produce the series of graphs with accompanying texts (150-175 words) so that Uncle Jean Claude…The figure to the right illustrates the trade-offs facing Ford Motor Company.

What is the autarky equilibrium price of bred relative to wine in each country? b.) What country has the absolute advantage in producing each good? What country has the comparative advantage in producing each good? Briefly explain the difference between these two concepts. Suppose both countries are now free to trade.
