In South, it takes 200 labor hours to produce cloth and 200 hours to produce grain. Which of the following statements is true? 5 In country X, it takes 50 labor hours to produce cloth and 100 hours to produce grain.

At what price would X start to be willing to trade with Y? 6 Which of the following theories holds that countries will produce and export products that use large amounts of production factors that they have in abundance? 7 Vernon's international product life cycle theory: 8 A lower tariff on imported steel would most likely benefit 9 Which of the following factors influence trade? 10 If the price of the Japanese Yen declines considerably against the British Pound: 11 If a Japanese firm sold $10 billion of machinery in US and the US dollar declined against the Japanese currency: 12 Which of the following is not a reason to erect trade barriers? 13 Which of the following countries is not a member of OPEC? 14 A company of the US has excess products that it does not want to sell into the US market because it will bring down the domestic price and instead sells it at another country at below the cost of production. What is this called? 15 According to the principle of comparative advantage, countries that are similar should trade very little with each other: 16 Much of the trade of industrialized countries is two-way trade, which means that: 17 Constant returns to scale indicates that input use and total costs rise: 18 Scale economies suggest that output quantities increase at a larger proportion than total costs increase as additional inputs are used, so average cost per unit produced: 19 The actions and decisions of the individual firm result in:
2 20 Monopolistic competition means that: 21 In a market where each firm's product is somewhat different: 22 suggests that a number of small firms produce identical commodity products, take the price offered by the market, and believe that they cannot individually influence that price. 23 If a few large firms dominate an industry and control or influence the price at which their products are sold, there is: 24 Consider a type of product whose market structure is monopolistic competition. In the shift from no trade in this type of product to free trade: 25 The average cost of a firm producing a product in an area declines as the output of that firm's industry (all firms producing that product) in that area in that area increases. This is a description of the phenomenon of: 26 can arise if a concentration of an industry's firms in a geographical area attracts local suppliers of specialized services for that industry or a large pool of specialized labor for that industry. 27 The difference between imports and exports is referred to as net trade and has a positive value for a specific product if: 28 Intra-industry trade is more prevalent in: 29 If scale economies are modest: 30 National gains from trade can be attributed to all of the following except: 31 Doubling the distance between countries that are trading partners tends to: 32 If substantial scale economies exist over a large range of output, production of the product tends to be concentrated in a few large facilities in a few countries to take advantage of the scale economies. Those countries where the large production facilities are located tend to: 33 For a global oligopoly, established patterns of production and trade can persist even if new production locations become available that could be lower cost because: 34 In an oligopoly, if firms do not aggressively compete with each other on price, then: 35 The United States is a major exporter of 36 Autarky means that 37 The terms of trade are 38 A nation s consumption possibilities frontier is 39 The gains from trade are due primarily to the fact that 40 The source of gains from trade is 41 Mutually beneficial trade cannot occur

If this is true then in order to maximize a country s real income, the government should 125 When one applies the Heckscher-Ohlin model of trade to the issue of trade-related income redistributions, one must conclude that North South trade, such as U.S.-Mexico trade, 126 According to the theory of comparative advantage, a country will export a good only if 127 The difference between imports and exports is referred to as net trade and has a positive value for a specific product if: 128 According to the theory of comparative advantage, countries gain from trade because 129 If international trade takes place as a result of comparative advantage, it will cause which of the following effects in the participating countries? 130 Which of the following differs in its essential analytical framework? 131 The slope of the production function measures 132 If the world attained a perfect Heckscher-Ohlin model equilibrium with trade, then 133 International labor mobility 134 In a typical short-run production function, as labor 135 Using the production function model, the real wage is determined by 136 If initially wages are higher in Home than in Foreign, then a movement of workers from Foreign to Home will A 137 Which organization determines procedures for the settlement of international trade disputes? 138 The WTOʹs intervention against clean air standards 139 The World Trade Organization provides for all of the following except 140 Judging by the changes in the height of tariff rates in major trading countries, the world has been experiencing a great
