Nоte: Sаme infоrmаtiоn for questions 1-4. Two countries, A аnd B, share a border. Country A has five states: A0, A1, A2, A3, and A4. Country B has four states B1, B2, B3, and B4. The states were numbered in such a way that: Equally numbered states have the same GDP (GDP of state A1 = GDP of state B1, etc.). The distance between A0 and equally numbered states is about the same (the distance between A0 and A1 is about the same as the distance between A0 and B1, etc.). The following table shows distance in miles and total trade in millions of dollars, between A0 and the different states of each country. Use the gravity model to answer this question: Tradeij= A (GDPi GDPj) / Distanceij, where Tradeij is the trade volume between states i and j, A is a constant, GDPi is the GDP of state i, and Distanceij is the distance between state i and state j. Country A States Distance between Country A States and state A0 Trade between Country A States and state A0 Country B States Distance between Country B States and state A0 Trade between Country B States and state A0 A1 350 1388 B1 345 678 A2 350 1022 B2 345 481 A3 700 B3 673 A4 1567 544 B4 1593 233 Note that the distance between A0 and A1 is exactly the same as the distance between A0 and A2. Enter an estimate for the GDP of A2 as a percentage of the GDP of A1, or enter 0 if there is not enough information to estimate it. Enter your answer as a percentage (but don't include the percentage sign), not as a fraction. For example: if the percentage is 53.4%, enter 53.4, not 0.534; if it is 114.5%, enter 114.5, not 1.145.
Nоte: Sаme infоrmаtiоn for questions 5-19, except where noted. The world is composed of two countries, Country A аnd Country B. They use labor to produce two goods, Coats and Umbrellas. All of the assumptions of the Ricardian Model hold. The following table shows the unit labor inputs to make each good in each country. One unit of labor is one hour of labor. Country A has 6000 units of labor and country B has 10000 units of labor. The two countries are engaged in free and costless trade and both countries gain with trade, except as noted. Country A Country B Coats 1 3 Umbrellas 4 24 The following graph represents the relative supply curve of umbrellas relative to coats and the relative demand of umbrellas relative to coats, for the two countries. It is not necessarily drawn in scale, it is for illustration only. Don’t use its scale to answer any questions. Use it as an illustration to answer questions 16-19 only. Notation: QUA means country A’s supply or demand of Umbrellas, and analogously for the other symbols. (Note: Having separate information is to your advantage, as it decouples the answer here from other answers that you may have gotten wrong. However, don’t use this information to answer any other questions, as the information here is not necessarily correct for other questions!) In the figure above, which country or countries gain(s) from trade?
