  1. Daily Ten #1 - Shirts and Shoes Identify the country of origin for your shirts and shoes.

  2. Activator Chapter 17 – International Economics • Two men live alone on an isolated island. To survive they must undertake a few basic economic activities like water carrying, fishing, cooking and shelter construction and maintenance. The first man is young, strong, and educated. He is also, faster, better, more productive at everything. The second man is old, weak, and uneducated. He produces less than the younger man. In some activities the difference between the two is great; in others it is small. For instance, the younger man can gather 50 coconuts every hour, or catch 150 fish. While the older man can only gather 5 coconuts or catch 25 fish every hour. • Who is better at all activities in the scenario above? • What is the opportunity cost for the younger man if he dedicates his hour to gathering coconuts? • What is the opportunity cost for the older man if he dedicates his hour gathering coconuts • Should they work separately or together on the island? Explain.

  3. Chapter 17 – International Economics

  4. Chapter 17 – International Economics • Absolute Advantage – person or nation can produce more of a given product using a given amount of resources (I’m better than you) • Comparative Advantage – the ability to produce a product with less opportunity cost (I can do something with less opportunity cost) • Law of comparative advantage – a nation is better off when it produces goods and services for which it has a comparative advantage or or

  5. Output vs. Input • Output – final good or service, maximum amount that can be produced • “How much is produced” • Ex. China manufactured 2 million iphones last year • Input – resources "put in" to the economy that will help to produce an output; shows the number of resources required to produce a specific amount • “How much is necessary to produce” • Land, Labor, Capital (F.O.P.) • Ex. It takes China 1 hour to produce 100 Iphones, it takes 6 workers, it takes 2 factories, etc.

  6. Output vs. Input output input • The United States manufactures 2000 airplane engines ___________________ • It takes the average worker 3 hours to produce a textile in China __________________ • Saudi Arabia can produce up to 11 million barrels of crude oil ________________ • It takes 1 machine to cultivate a farm (it used to take 10 people) __________________ • McDonalds requires 2 acres of property to build a restaurant ______________________ • McDonalds has the capability of producing 8500 burgers per minute ________________ • It takes 2 hours and four workers to unload a truck at Wal-Mart ____________________ • The United States produced 2000 tons of soybeans last year ____________________ output input input output input output

  7. Coconuts or Fish? Output Question

  8. Coconuts or Fish? Output Question • Young Man has absolute advantage because he can produce both items more efficiently than the old man

  9. Coconuts or Fish? Output Question • OGO – “Other Goes Over” method shows the opportunity cost of production 150/50 150/50 = 3 F 50/150 50/150 = 1/3 C 25/5 25/5 = 5 F 5/25 5/25 = 1/5 C Young Man 1 Coconut = 3 Fish 1 Fish = 1/3 (.33) Coconut Old Man 1 Coconut = 5 Fish 1 Fish = 1/5 (.20) Coconut = = = =

  10. Coconuts or Fish? Output Question • Young Man has comparative advantage in collecting coconuts because he gives up less fish relative to his production of coconuts than the old man • His opportunity cost for collecting coconuts is lower relative to the old man • The old man has the comparative advantage in catching fish because he gives up less coconuts relative to his production of fish • His opportunity cost for catching fish is lower • Important Note: the only time two people/nations/firms will not trade is if there is no comparative advantage, opportunity cost is the same. 150/50 = 3 F 50/150 = 1/3 C 25/5 = 5 F 5/25 = 1/5 C

  11. Coconuts or Fish? Input Question • Young Man has absolute advantage because he can produce both items more efficiently than the old man

  12. Coconuts or Fish? Input Question • Young Man has absolute advantage because he can produce both items more efficiently than the old man

  13. Coconuts or Fish? Input Question • IOU – “Input - Other Goes Under” method shows the opportunity cost of production 1/2 2/1 = 2 3/12 = 1/4 12/3 = 4

  14. Determining Comparative Advantage • Scenario: Canada and Mexico are considering the trade of two goods. Canada can produce 100 Furs or 100 trees. Mexico can produce 50 furs or 200 trees. Fur Trees 100/100 100/100 = 1 T = 1 F 100 100 Canada = 1/4 F Mexico 200/50 = 4 T 50/200 50 200 1 • It costs Canada ______ fur for every tree it produces. • It costs Mexico ______ fur for every tree it produces. • It costs Canada ______ tree for every fur it produces. • It costs Mexico ______ tree for every fur it produces. 1/4 1 4 • Therefore, Canada should specialize in the production of Fur, while Mexico should specialize in the production of trees

  15. Determining Comparative Advantage • China has comparative advantage in car production • US has a comparative advantage in Cheese production 15/5 = 3 CH 5/15 = 1/3 CAR 4/2 = 2 CH 2/4 = 1/2 CAR

  16. Kate and Carl • It costs Kate ________ birdhouses to produce 1 t-shirt. • It costs Kate ________ shirts to produce 1 birdhouse. • It costs Carl ________ to produce 1 t-shirt. • It costs Carl ________to produce 1 birdhouse. • ________ has a comparative advantage when producing t-shirts. • ________ has a comparative advantage when producing birdhouses. • Therefore, ___________ should produce t-shirts and __________ should produce birdhouses. 1/3 3 1 1 1/3 3 1 1 Kate Carl Kate Carl

  18. Terms of Trade • Terms of trade – rate of exchange wherein both parties benefit • Gains from Trade – refers to the net benefits to agents from voluntary trading with each other; the specific amount that each party benefits through trade

  19. Coconuts or Fish? Terms of Trade 150/50 150/50 = 3 F 50/150 50/150 = 1/3 C 25/5 25/5 = 5 F 5/25 5/25 = 1/5 C Terms of Trade 1C = 4 Fish Coconuts Young Man 1 Coconut = 3 Fish 1 Fish = 1/3 (.33) Coconut Old Man 1 Coconut = 5 Fish 1 Fish = 1/5 (.20) Coconut 1 YM OM 1 2 3 4 5 Fish

  20. Coconuts or Fish? Terms of Trade 150/50 150/50 = 3 F 50/150 50/150 = 1/3 C 25/5 25/5 = 5 F 5/25 5/25 = 1/5 C Terms of Trade 1F = 1/4 Cocunut Fish Young Man 1 Coconut = 3 Fish 1 Fish = 1/3 (.33) Coconut Old Man 1 Coconut = 5 Fish 1 Fish = 1/5 (.20) Coconut 1 YM 1 OM 1/5 1/3 Coconuts

  21. Application Question Comparative Advantage • A Japanese worker can produce 6 units of steel or 3 televisions. A South Korean worker can produce 8 units of steel or 2 televisions. 3/6 = 1/2 TV 6/3 = 2 STL 2/8 = 1/4 TV 8/2 = 4 STL TVs Japan 1 Steel = 1/2 TV 1 TV = 2 Steel S. Korea 1 Steel = 1/4 TV 1 TV = 4 Steel Terms of Trade 1TV = 3 Steel 1 Steel = 1/3 TV 1 Japan S. Korea 2 3 4 5 1 Steel

  22. Japan produces all TVs (3), exporting 1 for 3 units of steel. • South Korea produces all steel (8), and exports 3 units for 1 television. Japan South Korea 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Steel Gains from trade +1/2 TV Steel Gains from trade +1/4 Steel Televisions Televisions 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 *Important Point: The production possibilities frontier is linear in these cases because the labor resource can be moved from the production of one good to the other at a constant rate.* 3/6 = 1/2 TV 6/3 = 2 STL 2/8 = 1/4 TV 8/2 = 4 STL

  23. Gains From Trade Example Slavia and Lebos are considering the trade of two goods, clothing and food. Slavia can produce 10 food or 10 clothing. Lebos can produce 3 Food or 9 Clothing.   Food • First, Input the data to determine who has a comparative advantage in production. 1 10/10 = 1 C 10/10 = 1 F 10 10 9/3 = 3 C 3/9 = 1/3 F 3 9 • Indicate Per Unit Opportunity Cost: • Slavia 1 F = _______ C 1C = _______F • Lebos 1 F = _______ C 1C = _______F • Who has the comparative advantage in the production of food? _________________________________ • Who has the comparative advantage in the production of clothing? _________________________________ 2 3 1 1 1 Clothing 3 1/3 Slavia Lebos • Term of Trade • If Slavia wants to experience gains from trade then they must agree to trade 1 food for more than _________ clothing. • If Lebos wants to experience gains from trade then they must agree to trade for less than ________ clothing for 1 food. 1 3

  24. First, graph original production possibilities • Then, graph the new points based on gains trade. • Slavia and Lebos agree to trade at a rate of 1 food for 2 clothing (1F = 2C). • Slavia produces all food (10) and trades 1 food for 2 clothing. • Therefore ending up with 9 food and 2 clothing. • Lebos produces all clothing (9) and trades 2 clothing to Slavia for 1 food. • Therefore, Lebos ends up with 7 clothing and 1 food. Food Food Slavia Lebos 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Gains from trade +1 Clothing Gains from trade +1/3 Food 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 0 Clothing Clothing

  25. Application Question Comparative Advantage • Two people are academics who are paid for how many papers they produce. In one year Jane can write 4 economics papers or 6 law papers. John can write 3 economics papers or 1 law paper. They need to figure out who should be the lawyer and who should be the economist. • Create two graphs that summarize all the possible choices that they can produce. Then determine opportunity cost in the chart below Jane John 4 3 Economics Papers Economics Papers Law Papers 6 1 Law Papers 0 0 6/4 = 1.5 LP 4/6 = 2/3 EP 1/3 = .33 LP 3/1 = 3 EP

  26. Application Question Comparative Advantage • They end up producing a total of 9 papers, 6 law papers and 3 economics papers. They decide to trade one law paper for one of economics papers; Jane ends up with 5 law papers and 1 economics paper while John can have 1 law paper and 2 economics papers • Plot the new points on the respective PPFs. Jane John 4 1 3 Economics Papers Economics Papers Law Papers 5 6 1 Law Papers 0 0 *Notice that they have broken through the constraints imposed by the scarcity of time. Both of these points lie outside the respective PPFs. John could not have written 1 law paper and 2 economics papers in a year because it takes him a year just to write the law paper. Jane could never have written 5 law papers and 1 economics papers in one year: it would have taken her 13 months to do so.*

  27. Closed and Open Economies Closed economy - does not interact with other economies in the world Open economy - interacts freely with other economies around the world

  28. Trade Barriers and Agreements Trade Barrier – a trade restriction, used to prevent a foreign product from freely entering a nation’s territory Tariffs – a tax on imported goods Embargo - partial or complete prohibition of commerce and trade with a particular country, in order to isolate it. Customs Duty – a tax on items purchased abroad Import Quotas – a limit on the amount of a good that can be imported Voluntary Export Restraint – a self-imposed limitation on the number of products shipped to a particular country (exports)

  29. Balance of Trade • Balance of Trade • Trade surplus - excess of exports over imports • Exports > Imports • Trade deficit - excess of imports over exports • Exports < Imports • Balanced trade - exports equal imports • Exports = Imports

  30. Arguments for Protectionism Protectionism – the use of trade barriers to protect industries from competition Infant industry – a newly founded industry in the early stages of development

  31. International Cooperation and Agreements International Free Trade Agreement – results from trade blocs between countries to reduce trade barriers and tariffs to promote trade North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) – agreement between Canada, Mexico and the U.S. to eliminate tariffs and other trade barriers European Union (EU) – a regional trade organization of European nations Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) - economic organization of ten countries located in Southeast Asia

  32. Measuring Trade Exchange Rate – the value of one foreign nation’s currency in relation to another nation’s currency Fixed exchange rate system – a currency system in which governments try to keep the value of their currencies constant against one another Flexible exchange rate system – a currency system that allows the exchange rate to be determined by supply and demand (most major currencies have this) Determining the Rate of Exchange 1 Dollar = 12 Mexican Pesos Hotel room costs 500 Pesos per night 500/12 = $41.66 1/12 = .083 x 500 = $41.66
