a) draw the ppf for home. place qy on the vertical axis. label all axes intersects.
b) what is the highest relative price of y in which home would produce some units of x? for the remainder of this question, assume the relative price is such that both goods are produced in home.
c) find w and r in terms of px and py.
d) if y decreases, what does the stolper-samuelson theorem predict will happen to w and r? assume the relative price is at a level such that both goods are still produced.
